Marketing Research

Chapter 5

QuestionAnswer
survey research methods research procedures for collecting large amounts of data using question-and-answer formats
respondent errors consist of both nonresponse error and response error
nonresponse error a systematic bias that occurs when the final sample differs from the planned sample
response error when respondents have impaired memory or do not respond accurately
person-administered surveys data collection techniques that require the presence of a trained human interviewer who asks questions and records the subject's answers
In-home interview A structured question-and-answer exchange conducted in the respondents home
mail-intercept interview a face-to-face personal interview that takes place in a shopping mall
telephone interviews question-and-answer exchanges that are conducted via telephone technology
computer-assisted telephone interview (CATI) Integrated telephone and computer system in which the interviewer reads the question from a computer screen and enters respondents' answers directly into the computer program
wireless phone survey method of conducting a marketing survey in which the data are collected using wireless phones
Self-administered survey a data collection technique in which the respondent reads the survey questions and records his or her own answers without the presence of a trained interviewer
mail surveys surveys sent to respondents using the postal service
mail panel survey a questionnaire sent to a group of individuals who have agreed in advance to participate
Drop-off survey a self-administered questionnaire that a representative of the researcher hand-delivers to selected respondents; the completed surveys are returned by mail or picked up by the representative
Online surveys survey data collected using the internet
propensity scoring used to adjust survey results to be more like those representative sample would have produced
Generalizable projectable to the population represented by the sample in a study
topic sensitivity the degree to which a survey question leads the respondent to give a socially acceptable response
Incidence rate The percentage of the general population that is the subject of the market research
ability to participate the ability of both the interviewer and the respondent to get together in a question-and-anser interchange
willingness to participate the respondent's inclination to disposition to share his or her thoughts
Knowledge level degree to which the selected respondents feel they have knowledge of or experience with the survey's topics
causal research studies that enable researchers to assess "cause-effect" relationships between two or more variables
Independent variables variables whose values are directly manipulated by the researcher
dependent variables measures of effects or outcomes that occur as a result of changes in level of the independent or causing variables
experiment an empirical investigation that tests for hypothesized relationships between dependent variables and manipulated independent variables
variable a concept or construct that can vary or have more than one value
control variables variables that the researcher does not allow to vary freely or systematically with independent variables; control variables should not change as the independent variable is manipulated
extraneous variables Any variables that experimental researchers do not measure or control that may affect the dependents variable.
Validity The extent to which the conclusions drawn from an experiment are true
Internal validity The extent to which the research design accurately identifies casual relationships
external validity the extent to which a casual relationship found in a study can be expected to be true for the entire target population
laboratory (lab) experiments causal research designs that are conducted in a artificial setting
Field experiments casual research designs that manipulate the independent variables in order to measure the dependent variable in a natural setting
Test marketing using controlled field experiments to gain information on specified market performance indicators
