February 2016 • Sarah Butt, Kaisa Lahtinen, Chris Brunsdon
Nonresponse can undermine the quality of social survey data. Understanding who does/does not respond to surveys is important for those involved in the collection and analysis of these data. Levels of nonresponse are known to vary geographically. However, there has been little consideration of how the predictors of survey nonresponse might vary geographically within countries. This study examines the possibility of spatial variation in response behavior using regional interactions and geographically weighted regres…
