The new edition is thoroughly updated and revised, and covers all aspects of survey research. It features expanded coverage of mobile phones, tablets, and the use of do-it-yourself surveys, and Dillman's unique Tailored Design Method is also thoroughly explained. This invaluable resource is crucial for any researcher seeking to increase response rates and obtain high-quality feedback from survey questions. Consistent with current emphasis on the visual and aural, the new edition is complemented by copious examples within the text and accompanying website. This heavily revised Fourth Edition includes: Strategies and tactics for determining the needs of a given survey, how to design it, and how to effectively administer it How and when to use mail, telephone, and Internet surveys to maximum advantage Proven techniques to increase response rates Guidance on how to obtain high-quality feedback from mail, electronic, and other self-administered surveys Direction on how to construct effective questionnaires, including considerations of layout The effects of sponsorship on the response rates of surveys Use of capabilities provided by newly mass-used media: interactivity, presentation of aural and visual stimuli. The Fourth Edition reintroduces the telephone--including coordinating land and mobile. Grounded in the best research, the book offers practical how-to guidelines and detailed examples for practitioners and students alike"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aSocial surveys 606 $aQuestionnaires 615 0$aSocial surveys. 615 0$aQuestionnaires. 676 $a300.72/3 700 $aDillman$b Don A.$f1941-$0968250 702 $aSmyth$b Jolene D. 702 $aChristian$b Leah Melani 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aE-BOOK 912 $a9910465316703321 996 $aInternet, phone, mail, and mixed-mode surveys$92199183 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01192nam 22003253 450 001 9910130620503321 005 20200428103049.0 035 $a(CKB)3400000000020663 035 $a(ItFiC)it 06934144 035 $a(EXLCZ)993400000000020663 100 $a20110314d2006 uy 0 101 0 $aita 200 00$aPreparare i nuovi professionisti dell'informazione $eatti della conferenza internazionale, Parma, 24-25 novembre 2003 /$fa cura di Anna Maria Tammaro 210 $aFiesole $cCasalini libri$d2006 215 $a139, 135 p 300 $aIn testa al front.: University of Northumbria; Universitą di Parma 300 $aPubbl. bifronte. 311 0 $a88-85297-74-9 327 $uhttp://www.ilibri.casalini.it/toc/06934144.pdf 517 1 $aTo prepare the new information professionals 606 $aBibliotecari$xIstruzione professionale$xCongressi$x2003 615 4$aBibliotecari$xIstruzione professionale$xCongressi$x2003. 676 $a020.7155 701 $aTammaro$b Anna Maria$07934 801 0$bItFiC 801 1$bItFiC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910130620503321 996 $aPreparare i nuovi professionisti dell'informazione$92437715 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03916nam 22006852 450 001 9910784345703321 005 20151005020624.0 010 $a1-107-16863-5 010 $a1-280-48010-6 010 $a0-511-60694-X 010 $a0-511-22056-1 010 $a0-511-22142-8 010 $a0-511-21949-0 010 $a0-511-32282-8 010 $a0-511-22017-0 035 $a(CKB)1000000000352133 035 $a(EBL)261152 035 $a(OCoLC)560226340 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000101884 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11128001 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000101884 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10065324 035 $a(PQKB)10814440 035 $a(UkCbUP)CR9780511606946 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL261152 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10130395 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL48010 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC261152 035 $a(PPN)149755031 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000352133 100 $a20090910d2006|||| uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aAmerica transformed $esixty years of revolutionary change, 1941-2001 /$fRichard M.

This 2006 book examines the period 1941-2001 during which time the character of American life changed rapidly, culminating in the shattering of the Liberal Democratic coalition. Revolutions in the areas of affluence, foreign policy, the military, business systems, racial relations, gender roles, sexual behavior and attitudes, and disregard for privacy are discussed. Rather than cite historical facts as they occurred, America Transformed analyzes them and offers a fresh and often controversial perspective. Abrams' draws on a wealth of published sources to highlight his original arguments on McCarthyism, the Cold War, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, and Johnson, to name a few topics. The synthesis of information and the depth of insight are simply unparalleled in any other book of American social history from 1941-2001. 606 $aSocial change$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$y1945- 607 $aUnited States$xSocial conditions$y1945- 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1945-1989 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1989- 615 0$aSocial change$xHistory 676 $a973.92 700 $aAbrams$b Richard M.$0126095 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784345703321 996 $aAmerica transformed$93676794 997 $aUNINA
