Intercept Surveys
Person to Person
Some surveys are best administered in the field, person-to-person. The SESRC contracts and consults with agencies such as the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management and others to conduct intercept surveys with specific populations such as park visitors. Survey projects that follow principles outlined by the Tailored Design Method to develop and test survey instruments and follow-up protocols typically achieve response rates of over 65% with most populations.
