Dependent interviewing (DI) is a technique used in longitudinal surveys, whereby answers given in an interview are used to determine question routing or wording in the following interview. In this chapter, the authors examine which question format is best by studying interviewer and respondent behaviours, and how the question wording affects these. They use audio-recordings of experimental questions in the Innovation Panel of the UK Household Longitudinal Study to examine how different versions of proactive DI questions function, and why some wording versions are problematic. The next step in the analysis process after data collection was to code the interviewer-respondent interactions captured in the digital audio-recording. In coding the interviewer and respondent behaviours, the unit of coding was each turn taken by the interviewer or respondent.

Abstract

Dependent interviewing (DI) is a technique used in longitudinal surveys, whereby answers given in an interview are used to determine question routing or wording in the following interview. In this chapter, the authors examine which question format is best by studying interviewer and respondent behaviours, and how the question wording affects these. They use audio-recordings of experimental questions in the Innovation Panel of the UK Household Longitudinal Study to examine how different versions of proactive DI questions function, and why some wording versions are problematic. The next step in the analysis process after data collection was to code the interviewer-respondent interactions captured in the digital audio-recording. In coding the interviewer and respondent behaviours, the unit of coding was each turn taken by the interviewer or respondent.
