Abstract

This report contains an analysis of fieldwork outcomes for the Understanding Society GPS2 sample. It focuses on productivity (at least one completed adult questionnaire as well as a completed household questionnaire) and compliance with contact protocols. It includes analysis of temporal, regional and geodemographic variation in these metrics. It concludes with a set of ‘lessons learned’ that will inform the future recruitment of additional cohorts into the Understanding Society panel.
