Latent classification of survey respondents, based on respondents' and interviewers' evaluations
Gnidovec, Meta ; Kropivnik, Samo
In general, respondents have different beliefs about the level of applicability and accuracy of social science surveys. On the other hand, interviewers have different feelings about the level of ...participants' cooperation and understanding. In the Slovene "Victim Survey" conducted in 1992, the participants' evaluations of the level of survey's applicability andaccuracy, and the interviewers' evaluations of the level of respondent's cooperation and understanding were measured by means of four categorical variables. A significant level of association among four variables was found. Therefore, these variables were considered to be part of the same latent "complex" and they were used to develop a typology of survey respondents. An exploratory latent class model was used to identify three latent classes. On the basis of the conditional response probabilities, the obtained latent classes were recognized as the "Ideal Respondents Class", the "Skeptics Class"and the "Delicate Respondents Class". Furthermore, each respondent was assigned to one of the three classes on the basis of the modal classification probabilities. In the final step, the characteristics of the obtained classes (groups) of respondents were analysed with respect to several "external" variables, e.g., gender, age, level of education, interview method, number of contacts.
