Abstract: The graph is cited from: Schnell, Rainer (1997).Nonresponse in Bevölkerungsumfragen, p.87.(y-axis: refusal rate; x-axis: year of survey)We see a trend of increasing refusal rates which means less cooperation of sample persons.Also Groves/Couper (1998:166) mention a declining trend 19 for survey cooperation in the USA or "... at least it is becoming harder to maintain the same level of cooperation...".18 CATI=computer assisted telephone interview; CAPI=computer assisted personal interview 19 This is a very general summary.The authors discuss in more detail that response rates depend on many circumstances e.g.: long running survey or not, census data or not, national differences, survey organisations etc. See
