This article addresses the comparability of sampling and fieldwork with an analysis of methodological data describing 1,537 national surveys from five major comparative cross-national survey projects in Europe carried out in the period from 1981 to 2017. We describe the variation in the quality of the survey documentation, and in the survey methodologies themselves, focusing on survey procedures with respect to: 1) sampling frames, 2) types of survey samples and sampling designs, 3) within-household selection of target persons in address-based samples, 4) fieldwork execution and 5) fieldwork outcome rates. Our results show substantial differences in sample designs and fieldwork procedures across survey projects, as well as changes within projects over time. This variation invites caution when selecting data for analysis. We conclude with recommendations regarding the use of information about the survey process to select existing survey data for comparative analyses.

欧洲的抽样和实地调查实践:1981-2017年五个国家/地区项目中1,537项调查的方法学文档分析

本文通过对方法数据进行分析,探讨了抽样和现场工作的可比性,这些方法数据描述了1981年至2017年期间在欧洲进行的五个主要比较性跨国调查项目中的1,537个国家调查。我们描述了调查质量的变化文档,以及调查方法本身,重点关注以下方面的调查程序:1)抽样框架; 2)调查样本的类型和抽样设计; 3)在基于地址的样本中由家庭内部选择目标人员; 4)现场调查执行和5)实地调查的结果率。我们的结果表明,跨调查项目的样本设计和现场工作程序存在很大差异,并且随着时间的推移项目内部也发生了变化。选择变异数据进行分析时,请注意此变化。
