== Content Non-responsivity == Content non-responsivity is "responding without regard to item content". It isn't a new problem, and it is a problem for all surveying methods. But it is a problem without a solution, and it is a larger problem for web surveys. Lack of control over environment leads to more non-responsivity. One method of catching non-responsivity is utilizing bogus responses--if a respondent gives a bogus responses, there is little doubt that they are non-responsive. For this to be effective, it should not be possible to straight-line and pass all bogus responses. Consistency indices are also an option, but bake in assumptions about what non-responsive data looks like. It may not be logical for a respondent to give directly opposite responses (i.e., "antonyms") to similar prompts--but is it realistic? |
Authors discuss extent and possible solutions to non-responsivity ("responding without regard to item content"). * Bigger problem for web surveys due to lack of control over environment. * Bogus responses can identify non-responsive individuals. Must be designed with attention to straight-liners; should not be possible to straight-line and pass the test. * Consistency indices work, but carry assumptions about what non-responsive data looks like. |

Identifying Careless Responses in Survey Data (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1037/a0028085) was written by Andrew Meade and S. Bartholomew Craig in 2012. It was published in Psychological Methods (vol. 17, no. 3).

- Bigger problem for web surveys due to lack of control over environment.
- Bogus responses can identify non-responsive individuals. Must be designed with attention to straight-liners; should not be possible to straight-line and pass the test.
- Consistency indices work, but carry assumptions about what non-responsive data looks like.
