Student and Faculty Member Engagement in Undergraduate Research (2013, background): “However, self-reported data is generally purported to be reasonably accurate (Tourangeau et al. 2000) and we believe the survey items used to identify participation in and value of UR are written clearly, minimizing the chance for misinterpretation by the respondents.”
‘Student experience’ surveys: some methodological considerations and an empirical investigation (2009, background): “that used by Yorke and Longden (2007) when investigating the first-year experience in the UK, reflects a view that the separation of cognate items is preferable.”
The Effect of Television Viewing on Adolescents' Civic Participation: Political Efficacy as a Mediating Mechanism (2009, background): “It is often recommended to ask about difficult-to-remember behaviors in terms of some recent time period in order to aid recall (eg, Tourangeau, Rips, & Rasinski, 2000 ).”
Evaluating expert judgments (2007, background): “, either before they happened or afterwards) are bound to plague such judgments, even when we provide an explicit time frame (Tourangeau et al. 2000).”
Understanding Student Self-Reports of Academic Performance and Course-Taking Behavior (2017, methodology): “By application of the Tourangeau et al. (2000) model to the reporting of grades, the response phase gives students a chance to decide if (and how) they should report potentially embarrassing information.”
Modelling Uncertainty and Overdispersion in Ordinal Data (2014, background): “…circumstance that “we would expect respondents to choose the first acceptable alternative(s) among the offered choices” (Krosnick and Alwin, 1978, p. 203) implies that such possibility is adequate also for ordinal categories (an updated discussion is offered by Tourangeau et al. 2000, pp.250–254).”
Sensitive questions in surveys. (2007, background): “First, respondents may be reluctant to make sensitive disclosures to an interviewer because they are afraid of embarrassing themselves (Tourangeau et al., 2000, chap.”
Using Internet in Stated Preference Surveys: A Review and Comparison of Survey Modes (2011, neutral): “…determined by how carefully the respondent executes the process of understanding the question, retrieving information (including feelings, beliefs and knowledge about the environmental good), integrating information to form an overall judgement and formulating a response (Tourangeau et al., 2000).”
Patterns of consent: evidence from a general household survey (2006, background): “(1992), and Esser (1993) on rational choice theory and Tourangeau et al. (2000) on cognitive approaches. Schräpler (2003) provides a useful review.”
Impact of the Number of Response Categories and Anchor Labels on Coefficient Alpha and Test-Retest Reliability (2004, result): “More recently, Tourangeau, Rips, and Rasinski (2000) proposed a model of survey response processes, and they share a similar view to the proposition of Symonds (1924).”
From enabling technology to applications: The evolution of risk perceptions about nanotechnology (2011, background): “Specifically, research in survey methodology suggests that “the earlier in the list [or response options] an acceptable answer appears, the more popular it will be” (Tourangeau et al., 2000: 250) among respondents.”
Discrete Choice Experiments: A Guide to Model Specification, Estimation and Software (2017, background): “[13] for details on the important topics of experimental and survey design.”
