Discuss what can be done to reduce not-at-homes
What will be an ideal response?
The percentage of not-at-homes can be substantially reduced by employing a series of callbacks, or periodic follow-up attempts to contact nonrespondents. The decision about the number of callbacks should weigh the benefits of reducing nonresponse bias against the additional costs. As callbacks are completed, the callback respondents should be compared to those who have already responded to determine the usefulness of making further callbacks. In most consumer surveys, three to four callbacks may be desirable. Whereas the first call yields the most responses, the second and third calls have a higher response per call. It is important that callbacks be made and controlled according to a prescribed plan.
