A comprehensive framework for both reduction of nonresponse and postsurvey adjustment for nonresponseThis book provides guidance and support for survey statisticians who need to develop models for postsurvey adjustment for nonresponse, and for survey designers and practitioners attempting to reduce unit nonresponse in household interview surveys. It presents the results of an eight-year research program that has assembled an unprecedented data set on respondents and nonrespondents from several major household surveys in the United States.Within a comprehensive conceptual framework of influence
