Computer Assisted Personal Interviewing (CAPI) involves the use of a portable computer to collect, store and transmit data related to a personal survey interview. The Department tested this interviewing method during the conduct of the decennial Household Expenditure Survey (HES) from May to August 2004. This document provides an overview of each phase of the HES-CAPI pilot study from preparation to performance. It is hoped the information shared in this paper provides key insight for those national statistical offices that may be considering using CAPI as an alternative method for data collection.","PeriodicalId":85585,"journal":{"name":"Statistical journal of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe","volume":"9 1","pages":"133-145"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86626087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

New capabilities have propelled these compendia to the web and on onto a CD-ROM. However, most remain electronic mirrors of their print editions. What functionalities are necessary to support the evolution of the statistical abstract in the changing information landscape? What do users want and how do they want it presented? With increasing online accessibility to data from original sources, is bringing together that data into one package still important? Why or why not? The US Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) sponsored research into these issues as they relate to its statistical compendia, the Sourcebook of Criminal Justice Statistics which has been published for over 30 years. The study used various techniques including focus groups; a consensus building Delphi with a panel of experts in criminal justice, cognitive psychology, information science, computer science, and statistical dissemination; and usability testing. This paper summarizes the findings of this research that are applicable to all statistical compendia and to statistical publishing in general.","PeriodicalId":85585,"journal":{"name":"Statistical journal of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe","volume":"21 1","pages":"163-171"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83525808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Statistics encourage debate, inform decision-making, both inside and outside government and allow people to judge whether the Government is delivering on its promises. For official statistics to play that key role effectively a very high level of public trust is needed, both in the organisation that produces statistics and in the quality and integrity of the information it produces. Building public recognition for the importance, independence, professionalism and good reputation of a statistical office is a long-term undertaking that depends on a complex range of interactions in order to succeed. Confidence is critical to the willingness of the public to trust statistics, to take part in government surveys and to follow policy recommendations based on official statistics. Statistical information now has a role and a prominence it has never had before. Governments are making more strategic use of statistics in their performance measures and evidence-based decision-making. Citizens are looking to statistics both to help make sense of the world around them and to help judge the performance of their Government. The media are ever more cynical and reluctant to take Government produced information at face value. All of this presents special challenges for the communication function, which is responsible for a large part of the interface between a statistical office and the outside world. Communication via the web and news media are two crucial aspects. This paper offers some thoughts, suggestions and examples of how this complex and demanding challenge can be addressed.","PeriodicalId":85585,"journal":{"name":"Statistical journal of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe","volume":"4 1","pages":"147-156"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88086382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The surveys are implemented as personal face-to-face interviews which include questions on the physical, mental and social work environment and employees' experiences relating to it. With a time span of more than a quarter of a century, these surveys provide an excellent tool with which the working conditions of wage and salary earners in Finland can be examined. The development of these surveys is an ongoing process. In this context the methodology of combining quantitative and qualitative methods has proved to be very efficient and rewarding. Gender sensitivity is of major importance in the Quality of Work Life Surveys. This principle is involved in every step of the survey process from the questionnaire design to the analysis and reporting of the results. These experiences also prove how crucial it is that some in-depth analysis and research of the data are also done by the institution and by the researchers responsible for the survey design and the data collection in the first place.","PeriodicalId":85585,"journal":{"name":"Statistical journal of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe","volume":"58 1","pages":"57-67"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76980471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though not yet implemented on a national scale, the introduction of this added response channel is one of the major changes to census methodology in Canada in more than 30 years.

Two main forms of underemployment can be distinguished: a) time related underemployment, which can be measured directly and reflects insufficiency in the volume of work; b) misallocation of labour resources, in particular the mismatch of occupation and education. The aim of this paper is to present a new approach in the measurement of underemployment, showing what information is available from the Italian labour force survey, and what other information is needed in order to reach a better understanding of the multiple facets and to produce a better measure of underemployment, especially concerning skill-related and other forms ,such as income-related underemployment.","PeriodicalId":85585,"journal":{"name":"Statistical journal of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe","volume":"34 1","pages":"43-56"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75634222","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Other forecasts have recently predicted a falling population size for those countries. However, there are reasons to expect higher immigration and lower mortality than the earlier forecasts did. Hence, we find that population decline is postponed in our forecast. The forecast also alerts us to the fact that many demographic developments cannot be forecasted accurately. Although ageing is certain, the extent to which this will occur is difficult to predict accurately. The number of elderly persons is very uncertain in the long run. This has major implications for all European countries in which reforms for pension systems and the provision of health care for the elderly are considered. The reforms must be robust against unexpected demographic developments.","PeriodicalId":85585,"journal":{"name":"Statistical journal of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe","volume":"18 1","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79934757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
