摘要

Recontact consent is important in social survey research, especially in longitudinal surveys, as it facilitates follow-ups and reduces nonresponse bias. This study explores determinants of agreeing to recontact for future surveys and whether declining recontact consent is associated with providing nonsubstantive responses. The study used the European Social Survey Round 11 dataset, comprising 27,314 respondents. Willingness to be recontacted is higher among highly educated respondents, those who use the internet daily, and those who have a strong political interest. Respondents unwilling to be recontacted are significantly more likely to provide nonsubstantive responses across various survey items. This is one of the first large-scale cross-national studies to examine the link between willingness to be recontacted and nonsubstantive responses, highlighting its potential as a methodological indicator that may serve as a proxy for survey response quality in social surveys.
