Natural mortality and participation fatigue as potential biases in diary panels: impact of some demographic factors and behavioral characteristics on systematic attrition

Article Abstract:

There has been no research done to identify the sources of attrition despite numerous studies on the factors leading to attrition bias and sample nonrepresentativeness. Data was gathered from a research of the AT&T on its residential long distance market. This was used to measure panel attrition due to natural mortality and participation fatigue. Marital status was found to selectively affect natural mortality. Age and sex selectively affect attrition due to participation fatigue.
