Does "Yes or No" on the Telephone Mean the Same as "Check-All-That-Apply" on the Web?

Recent experimental research has shown that respondents to forced-choicequestions endorse significantly more options than respondentsto check-all questions. This research has challenged the commonassumption that these two question formats can be used interchangeablybut has been limited to comparisons within a single survey mode.In this paper we use data from a 2004 random sample survey ofuniversity students to compare the forced-choice and check-allquestion formats across web self-administered and telephoneinterviewer-administered surveys as they are commonly used insurvey practice. We find that the within-mode question formateffects revealed by previous research and reaffirmed in thecurrent study appear to persist across modes as well; the telephoneforced-choice format produces higher endorsement than the webcheck-all format. These results provide further support forthe argument that the check-all and forced-choice question formatsdo not produce comparable results and are not interchangeableformats. Additional comparisons show that the forced-choiceformat performs similarly across telephone and web modes.     

玉 · 玉雕 · 玉文化

中国有着八千多年的用玉史,三千多年的玉器研究史,中国玉器历史之早,延续时间之长,分布之广,器形之众,做工之精,影响之深,为其他任何国家所不能及,这使中国赢得了"玉器之国"的美誉.中国全民惜玉、爱玉、尊玉,形成了博大精深的玉文化.然而,略显遗憾的是"遍身罗绮者,不是养蚕人",自古以来,玉是被帝王将相、达官显贵、文人士大夫及异国商贾所享有.而今,随着改革开放,随着人民物质文化生活的逐步提高,玉,亦如"旧时王谢堂前燕,飞入寻常百姓家"了.所以,在当下,把玉、佩玉、居家置玉、藏玉者已是一个不可计量的庞大群体,街谈巷议中,饭后茶余时,赏玉论雕已是极为普遍的现象,话题也必然涉及玉文化.因此,本人愿尽自己有限的知识,以"玉·玉雕·玉文化"为题,作一梗概式探讨.

Actualizing the "Democratic Family"? Swedish Policy Rhetoric versus Family Practices

In this article, we examine empirically a key element of individualizationtheory—the democratic family. We do so using the "acidtest" of family policy, and family practice, in Sweden. First,we review the progress of family policy in Sweden since the1960s, which has expressly promoted an agenda of gender equalityand democracy in families, with individual autonomy for bothadults and children as one key element. We then turn to familypractice, looking particularly at negotiation and adult equality,lifelong parenting after separation, and children's autonomy.While Swedish policy makers and shapers seem to have developedthe idea of the democratic family long before the sociologistAnthony Giddens, the results in practice have been more ambivalent.While there has been change, there is more adaptation to pre-existinggender and generational norms.

What's in a Name?: Preference for "Black" versus "African-American" among Americans of African Descent

This research note examines the preferences of Americans ofAfrican descent for the label "black" versus "African-American."Racial labels have long been associated with majority-groupattitudes toward minority-group members, and minorities themselveshave changed their preferred terminology over time. We tracethe evolution of racial labels from "Negro" to "black" to "African-American"and examine predictors of terminological preference among anational sample of Americans of African descent. Our respondentsare nearly equally divided in their preference for the label"black" versus "African-American." Significant correlates orpredictors of terminological preference include the racial compositionof the grammar school that respondents attended, respondents’degree of racial group consciousness, and age, region, and sizeof city of residence.
