Carroll, D. 2011. An analysis of mode effects in the 2010 Course Experience Questionnaire. Journal of Institutional Research, 16 (2), 1–12.
Abstract
Historically, responses to the Course Experience Questionnaire (CEQ) were required to be
collected by self-administered paper or online questionnaire to be eligible for official analysis.
CEQ responses collected by telephone were excluded from the final analysis file to minimise
the potential for bias due to mode effects: systematic variation in responses obtained using
different data collection methods. For the 2010 CEQ, however, telephone data collection was
permitted to maximise response rates, with responses collected in this manner included in the
final analysis file for the first time. In all, nearly ten per cent of all valid responses to the 2010
CEQ were collected by telephone, with institutional use of telephone data collection ranging
from 18 to 56 per cent of all responses received for that institution. Using regression and
matching methods, this paper seeks to identify mode effects in the 2010 CEQ data
that cannot be attributed to compositional differences between the telephone and
self-administered respondent samples. Implications for survey practice are also
discussed.
