摘要
This review of nonresponse in cross-sectional household surveys in the United States shows trends in nonresponse rates, the main reasons for nonresponse, and changes in the components of nonresponse. It shows that nonresponse is increasing but that existing methods for modeling response mechanisms do not adequately explain these changes.
