“…Finally, (estimated) per-respondent survey costs were about 7% lower in the web-telephone design compared to the telephone single-mode design, indicating a small potential cost savings of mixing modes. We note that our results are in contrast to those reported in earlier mode (design) experiments conducted with general population samples, which found a higher response rate for the traditional intervieweradministered mode compared to the web-first mixedmode design in the initial wave of the mode change [46,50]. The different results may be at least partially explained by the population under study.…”

“…The screening sample was assigned to a sequential web-face-to-face mixed-mode design, while the cohort sample was allocated to a face-to-face single-mode design. The mixed-mode design had a negative effect on the response rate (face-to-face: 82%, web-face-to-face: 70%), but lowered costs relative to the single-mode design [50]. However, these results could be influenced by the aforementioned differences in household composition.…”

“…First, the literature suggests that introducing a web-first phase in a traditional interviewer-administered panel survey does not always increase the response rate in the wave the web mode was introduced. Second, the literature suggests that introducing a web-first phase in a traditional interviewer-administered panel survey reduces survey costs [42,48,50].…”

Employee panel surveys, which are essential for measuring ongoing labor market developments, are facing significant challenges of respondent recruitment and retention. Even interviewer-administered panel surveys, historically considered the gold standard form of data collection, are facing high costs and nonresponse issues that threaten their sustainability and inferential capabilities. Supplementing interviewer-administration with online data collection is a popular method of reducing costs and may improve contactability and reduce nonresponse in employee surveys. However, the effects of introducing online data collection in an ongoing panel survey of the employed population have received little attention. We address this research gap by analyzing a mode design experiment embedded in the fourth wave of a German employee panel survey. Individuals were randomly assigned to the standard telephone-only design, or a sequential web-telephone mixed-mode design. An invitation letter experiment was also conducted to test the effect of mentioning the telephone follow-ups in the web survey invitation. Introducing the mixed-mode design led to a higher response rate (59.9% vs. 50.1%), similar levels of nonresponse bias, and lower costs compared to the single-mode design. Mentioning the telephone follow-ups had no effect on participation in the web starting mode or the full mixed-mode design. Implications of these findings for survey practice are discussed.

“…Recently, computer-assisted web interviews (CAWI) have been offered as an alternative to PAPI and CAPI interviews. Nevertheless, personal contact between the interviewers and respondents will remain an important feature of the SOEP (Lüdtke & Schupp, 2017). Interviewers gather information using two central survey instruments: a household questionnaire, which is completed by the household head, and an individual questionnaire, which each adult household member is asked to complete.…”

May your wealth be easily divisible by two: marital dissolution and personal wealth of German men and women over the life course

Wealth provides advantages above those provided by earnings including the access to an objective and subjective economic buffer during financial hardship (Spilerman, 2000). However, individuals differ greatly in their ability to generate and maintain wealth (Killewald, Pfeffer, & Schachner, 2017). The lack of sufficient private wealth is becoming progressively problematic, as even countries with generous welfare systems, such as Germany, have increasingly emphasised personal economic responsibility throughout the life course (Seeleib-Kaiser, 2016). It is thus urgent to understand the factors that disrupt individuals' wealth accumulation given their implications for the economic wellbeing of the population in forthcoming years. While family dynamics have been recognised as a source of stratification (McLanahan & Percheski, 2008), marital dissolution has received little attention within wealth stratification research despite this event being linked to a range of financial-and potentially wealth-relevant-burdens (e.g. relocation costs, administrative divorce costs). This thesis investigates the association between marital dissolution and wealth of men and women in Germany. I thereby expand on an incipient body of US research that found that marital dissolution is associated with substantially lower household or percapita wealth (e.g. Zagorsky, 2005; Zissimopoulos, Karney, & Rauer, 2015). These studies, however, almost exclusively used cross-sectional data and static theories, although the processes linking marital dissolution and wealth are likely dynamic, with important wealth-related processes taking place before and after marital separation and divorce. Furthermore, due to data restrictions, previous studies insufficiently considered gender differences although the economic outcomes of marital dissolution, at least for income, have been shown to differ between men and women. To address these shortcomings in previous research, I aim to (a) explain how marital dissolution affects individuals' wealth levels and wealth accumulation, including immediate and long-term outcomes, and (b) explore how, and to what degree, the association between marital dissolution and wealth is gendered. I rely on three methodological and theoretical developments to address these aims. First, I draw on the life course framework, which provides a set of heuristics that acknowledge patterns of stability and change. Second, addressing limitations of static methods applied in previous research, I build on statistical methods that provide more appropriate tools to analyse patterns of progression, individual change, and dynamic processes. My quantitative approach includes panel regressions and sequence analysis. Third, I rely on novel longitudinal wealth data from the German SocioEconomic Panel (SOEP). These data are unique in that they were collected separately for each household member (i.e. at the personal level), which enable a gender-sensitive approach. My thesis highlights a range of key findings: First, marital dissolution is associated ...
