As part of the U.S. Census Bureau's continual efforts to improve the Survey, this workshop was called to investigate response burden, focusing on four main topics: matrix sampling to reduce the number of individuals that various questions are posed to; direct substitution of information from administrative records, eliminating some questions; having a separate, reduced-size questionnaire that eliminates unreasonable questions for respondents living in group quarters; and a communication and education strategy to increase cooperation with the request to participate. 606 $aHousehold surveys$xResponse rate$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$2fast 615 0$aHousehold surveys$xResponse rate 676 $a317.30723 700 $aPlewes$b Thomas J.$01094222 702 $aPlewes$b Thomas J. 712 02$aNational Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (U.S.).$bCommittee on National Statistics. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816846703321 996 $aReducing response burden in the American Community Survey$94111940 997 $aUNINA
