1 Introduction
This evaluation report is one of two parts of the final report for the 2019 Perception Survey
on the Quality of Life in European Cities. It presents an overview of the design, preparation
and execution of the Perception Survey. It also discusses the survey’s performance in
terms of sampling, fieldwork quality and accuracy of the collected data. Finally, this report
also lays out some recommendations for possible changes to the survey design that could
improve the performance of future waves of the Perception Survey.
This evaluation report is accompanied by a technical report, which forms the second part
of the final report. The technical report lists, per city, the most important sample
performance data (amount of sample used, eligibility rate, refusals, response rate, average
interview length, etc.)
2 Project overview
This chapter gives a concise overview of the different steps of the 2019 Perception Survey,
from the questionnaire design until the final data deliveries.
2.1 Sample design
The Perception Survey targets citizens of all (greater) cities within the scope of the survey
– covering a total of 83 cities. The target population includes all people aged 15 and above,
who satisfy the requirements outlined below:
1. Being a resident of the city surveyed;
2. Having sufficient command of (one of) the respective national/regional
language(s) or English, which allows them to comfortably answer the
questionnaire;
3. Living in a private household, which means that the target population will exclude
prisoners, residents of retirement homes, etc. who are difficult to reach via a
telephone survey.
Regarding the first requirement, the scope is technically defined for each city in terms of a
set of Local Area Units (LAUs) that together comprise the area of the city under scope. The
residence of a given respondent in one of these LAUs determines their eligibility for the
survey. The list of LAUs in scope per city is added to this Evaluation Report as Annex 2.
Regarding the second requirement, the language command was assessed by the
interviewer at the start of the survey. In case it was clear that a respondent is not able to
answer questions in one of the official languages, they were offered to conduct the
interview in English.
Regarding the third requirement, the survey in practice targeted all residents aged 15+
with private access to a telephone, which is de facto confirmed by a given respondent being
reachable by phone during the fieldwork.
2.1.1 Sample size and associated margin of error
The target sample size was 700 complete interviews in each city surveyed. This means
that interviews were gathered from 58 100 respondents in total, all of which are citizens
who are resident in one of the (greater) cities under scope The following chart depicts how
the margin of error associated with survey estimates can vary as a function of sample size,
assuming a confidence level of 95%.

2.1.2 Sample methodology
Telephone samples require a specific design in order to cover the entire target population
and to reduce a) potential coverage bias and b) non-response bias. Some aspects are
country-specific, such as prefixes, operators, overall telephone penetration, penetration of
mobile phones and penetration of mobile only. As a growing share of the population is
becoming “mobile only” (i.e. persons who only have access to a mobile phone), the optimal
composition of telephone samples should take into account the incidence of households
that are reachable only via mobile numbers. Each telephone mode (fixed line or mobile)
also covers a specific profile with parameters such as age and urbanization degree.
According to the 2017 Eurobarometer on E-communications, omitting “mobile only”
persons implies 37% of the EU households are not included in the sample frame.1
In order to ensure maximum population coverage resulting in a representative sample, a
mixed (or “dual frame”) approach was taken for this Perception Survey, which takes into
account the respective distributions of persons who only have access to a mobile phone
(i.e. “mobile only”), persons who only have access to a fixed line phone (i.e. “fixed only”)
and persons who have access to both mobile and fixed line phones (i.e. “mixed”). Based
on these data, the necessary distribution of mobile phone and landline sample units needed
in the sample frame is calculated. By utilizing two separate, overlapping sample frames to
interview a population of interest, this approach currently guarantees the maximum and
most representative coverage of the population of interest.
Below we provide an overview of the methodology used for sampling, including the
procedures for random selection of telephone numbers from the sampling frames as well
as for respondent selection within a given household. Both are identical across the
surveyed cities.
The sampling frames based on the dual-frame methodology proposed were developed via
the following steps:

For every city, a random gross sample was drawn from a larger sample frame. This ensures
that each person belonging to the target universe will have a chance to participate in the
survey.
The landline sample was generated through Random Digit Dialling (RDD). With RDD,
dedicated software is used to generate telephone numbers, starting from an initial list of
prefixes (which can be linked to a great extend to cities) and primary numbers. This initial
list is taken from available public records like registers and phone books. From the numbers
in this list, new telephone numbers are created and used by adding and subtracting digits
from the existing telephone number. For example if in the register/phone book
+322/xxx.xx.xx links to the city of Brussels, then new telephone numbers for Brussels can
be generated keeping the prefix and replacing e.g. the last two digits (e.g.
+322/xxx.xx.yy). In this way the number has been randomly generated.
The mobile sample is compiled based on national phone number registers (if available
for mobile numbers in a given country) and through publicly available online data (such as
from social media). It should be noted that such data is collected anonymously and only
with reference to the available geographic information linked to the number (such as the
country or region in which the phone number resides). The latter is necessary to identify
the mobile phone number as belonging to a certain country or city.
Where detailed geographic information is available it was also used to verify in this first
stage that the numbers in the sample are spread proportionally over the different
subregions of the city. Concretely, we wanted to avoid that most or all of the sample is
located in one specific subregion of a city, which could greatly bias the results of the
Survey.
The composition of the prefixes and primary numbers is thus a key element to guarantee
that sufficient geographical spread can be obtained. Once the primary numbers and their
geographic information are determined, the landline samples for specific cities are
generated via Random Digit Dialling. Next the sample is pulsed to filter out non-connected
and invalid numbers (=numbers that don’t exist/don’t result in a connection) as well as
business/non-residential numbers.
Step 2: Gross sample composition
When the sample frames per city are determined, the gross samples can be drawn from
it. As already indicated above, the 2019 Perception Survey uses a dual frame sampling
approach, using both mobile and fixed line numbers. The mobile sample is drawn at random
from the available mobile numbers for each city. To determine the size of the gross sample
needed for a target complete sample of 700 per city, we estimate the necessary
oversampling rate based on an assumed response rate, and set the oversampling rate
in the gross samples for the main field is defined at a ratio of 1:24. This amounts
to a gross sample of 16 800 numbers per city.
For each city, separate landline and mobile frames are built and separate samples
are drawn from that for each city. The size of the sample drawn per phone type depends
on the phone type ownership data for each city. However, as reliable statistics on phone
ownership on city level are not available, the proportion of mobile and landline numbers in
each city sample is based on available data on the country level (i.e., for all cities in a
given country we use the same phone type distribution). For the EU countries, United
Kingdom, Norway and Iceland the distribution data are calculated based on phone
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 9
ownership data collected in the 2017 wave of the Consumer Market Monitoring Survey.2
The rationale behind using these alternative targets is further elaborated in the weighting
section. For the other countries, phone ownership data is based on the latest available
Eurobarometer data or on data made available by local statistics institutes. The phone
ownership targets are used for defining the sampling frames, but are also used for
monitoring the sample performance during the fieldwork and used for weighting.
Population statistics on phone ownership distinguish between landline ownership, mobile
phone ownership and mixed ownership (i.e., those who have both types of phone).
However, in order to determine the proportion of landline and mobile numbers in our gross
samples, the “mixed” population needs to be recalculated to come to a binary sample
distribution. For that reason, the mobile and landline samples are defined and calculated
as follows:
Mobile sample: potential respondents within a given country that can be reached via a
mobile line (regardless of whether they can also be reached via a fixed line). As such, this
sample includes respondents from both the mobile only and mixed population.
% 𝑴𝒐𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒆 𝒔𝒂𝒎𝒑𝒍𝒆 =𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝒎𝒐𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒆 𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔
𝑻𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒑𝒐𝒑𝒖𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝒑𝒉𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒏𝒖𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓𝒔=
𝑴 + 𝑴𝑭
(𝑴 + 𝑴𝑭) + (𝑭 + 𝑴𝑭)
F = fixed only; M = mobile only; and MF = mobile and fixed (mixed)
Fixed sample: potential respondents within a given country that can be reached via a
fixed line (regardless of whether they can also be reached via mobile line). As such, this
sample includes respondents from both the fixed line only and mixed population.
%𝑭𝒊𝒙𝒆𝒅 𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆 𝒔𝒂𝒎𝒑𝒍𝒆 =𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝒇𝒊𝒙𝒆𝒅 𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔
𝑻𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒑𝒐𝒑𝒖𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝒑𝒉𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒏𝒖𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓𝒔=
𝑭 + 𝑴𝑭
(𝑴 + 𝑴𝑭) + (𝑭 + 𝑴𝑭)
F = fixed only; M = mobile only; and MF = mobile and fixed (mixed)
For example, if Germany would be set to have the following proportions in the study: 83%
mixed, 9% fixed only, 8% mobile only, the local teams would compose a gross sample of
50.3% fixed numbers, calculated as ((83%+9%)/((83%+9%)+(83%+8%))), and 49.7%
mobile numbers ((83%+8%)/((83%+9%)+(83%+8%))).
It should be noted that these distributions are not fixed targets but are rather used as an
instrument to determine the composition of the gross samples so that they are maximally
representative of the population in terms of phone ownership. As such, they represent the
calling proportion of mobile versus fixed lines within each country. The table below presents
an example of how the % Mobile sample and % Fixed sample are linked to these
distributions of phone ownership for each country, based on available phone ownership
data.

Step 3: Sample building and effective phone type distribution
Based on the above distributions and the established oversampling factor of 24:1, the
required amount of mobile and fixed numbers is drawn from the sample frame to create
the gross sample for each city. At this point, in some cities, a necessary adjustment to the
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 11
target phone type distribution was made. This is done when there were not enough primary
phone numbers with geolocation information to reach the target amount of mobile phone
numbers for the gross sample. While sources to collect primary landline numbers from are
abundantly available, for some cities such information is much less easy to collect, either
because public listings are incomplete or because it depends on what information is publicly
obtainable via social media and other open sources. This explains why there can be clear
differences even within a country. Extra data collection efforts were made for cities where
the originally available primary number list was insufficient. A number of possible ways to
tackle this issue were considered. A first possibility was to include in the gross sample also
mobile phone numbers for which no geographic information is available. This, however,
would in most cities considerably raise the risk of lowering the incidence rate of the sample
(i.e., the amount of respondents on mobile numbers that live in the target cities), because
for any random mobile phone number in a given country the chances are low that the
associated respondent lives in one of the target cities. Including such numbers would then
decrease the calling efficiency and therefore increasing the time and resources needed for
the fieldwork. Therefore, this option was only applied in countries where the population of
the target city/cities is a considerable part of the total country population – and where
there is consequently a high enough chance that a randome mobile phone respondent is a
resident of the target city. Specifically, this was done in Valletta (Malta) and Luxembourg
City (Luxembourg).
In countries where this was not a practically feasible option, the lower proportion of mobile
phone numbers was compensated by adding more landline numbers to the gross sample.
This led to the following effective stratification of the gross sample for phone type, in each
city:

In cities where the proportion of mobile phone numbers in the gross sample was lower
than the assumed country proportion, mobile phone numbers were prioritized in the
fieldwork. This means that in the first weeks of the fieldwork a higher number of mobile
phone numbers were called, with the aim of maximizing the proportion of mobile numbers
in the final sample.
Identification of eligible postcodes.
Postcodes are central to the sample design of the Perception Survey and were also used
during the fieldwork to determine in the majority of the cities the eligibility of respondents.
It was thus very important that all (and only) the postcodes belonging to the target city
regions were identified. To achieve this, a multi-step process was followed.
First, GIS-data from postcode areas in all countries (obtained from national postal
administrations) were overlayed on GIS-data from the target LAUs per city. This way it
could be determined which postcodes were used within the cities’ boundaries.
In most countries, the boundaries of postcode areas and LAUs coincide. If that is the case,
it can be exactly determined which postcodes belong to which LAUs. However, in some
countries, both types of areas crosscut each other. This means that if we know for a given
sample unit or respondent the postcode, it cannot be determined in which LAU they live.
If the postcode area falls fully within the target city, this doesn’t pose large problems.
However, when a postcode area falls partly within and partly outside of the target city, it
is impossible to determine with 100% certainty whether a sample unit with this postcode
is eligible or not. To determine how likely it is that any sample unit with such a postcode
is eligible for participation in the survey, we calculated the proportion of the population in
these postcode areas that lives within the target city. We propose that if this proportion is
25% or higher, a sample unit with this postcode is considered always eligible. If the
proportion is below that threshold, we consider the sample unit always ineligible.
Concretely, this would mean the following:

In the postcode areas that we would not include in the sample, where less than
25% of the population lives within the target city, the average population proportion
living within the target city is just 4% (i.e., a random sample unit with this postcode
has 96% chance of being ineligible)
In the postcode areas that we would keep in the sample, where 25% or more of
the population lives within the target city, the average population proportion living
within the target city is 79%) (i.e., a random sample unit with this postcode has
21% chance of being ineligible)
These figures show that a cut-off of 25% guarantees a high chance that ineligible units are
kept out of the sample, while at the same time only removing a very small number of
eligible respondents.
2.2 Questionnaire design
The primary objective when preparing the questionnaire for use in the 2019 Perception
Survey was to keep the substantive questions as much as possible identical to the 2015
questionnaire, so that comparisons could be drawn. Some changes were made, however,
to the screening questions, the socio-demographic background questions, and the
questions needed for weighting. This was done either at the inception of the project or
after the pilot test. All of these changes were made with the objective of increasing data
accuracy. Also, a few changes were made to the questionnaire to comply fully with the
GDPR, in force since 2018.
2.2.1 Screening questions
Multiple screening questions where added to questionnaire, to be asked at the start of the
questionnaire. The goal of these screening questions is to make sure that all respondents
to the survey are within the target scope of the survey – aged 15 or over and residing in
one of the target cities.
For the screening of age, we use the following questions. When calling a landline number,
the age screening is combined with the “last birthday” question. This is used to randomly
select a member of the household, thus avoiding the bias of self-selection by the person
that has picked up the phone. In comparison to the previous wave, the age question has
been made more general, no longer asking for a specific date of birth, but only for the age
of the respondent. This is easier to respond and less intrusive, thus likely increasing the
response rate, and it also only collects the necessary information as we don’t need the
exact date of birth.
Screening questions for age:
What is your age? (Mobile numbers)
Please can I speak to the person aged 15 or older within your household whose
birthday it was most recently? (Landline numbers)
For the screening on regional eligibility, in most cities we asked the target respondent the
postcode of their residence, and subsequently matched that with a list of all postcodes
used in the city (specifically, the postcodes used in the LAUs that together form the target
city). If the postcode is not used in the city, this implies that the respondent lives outside
of the city, and the respondent was screened out. An exception is the situation where the
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 15
postcode given by the respondent belongs to another city included in the survey. In that
case, the interview was still conducted, and the respondent was moved to the sample from
the city in which he resides.
Screening question for postcode:
What is your postcode?
In some countries asking for the respondent’s postcode was not possible. This is either
because the postcode could allow to identify an individual household, in which case
recording the postcode would have required additional consent from the respondent. Or,
in some countries it could be guaranteed that all respondents would know their postcode,
typically because of recent changes to the postcode system causing people to know their
old, but possibly not yet their new postcode (or vice versa). The countries where this is the
case are the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Portugal, Bulgaria, Romania and Ireland.
In these countries, instead of asking for postcode to determine eligibility, we ask directly
for the respondent’s region of residence. In order to determine how to best ask this, the
main principle is to keep the question as simple as possible. For example, for London, the
target region is Greater London. Because Greater London is a commonly known region, we
can ask a respondent directly whether they live in Greater London. However, in a city like
Glasgow, such a single denomination for the whole target city region does not exist. For
that reason, in such cities we include in the question all subregions (e.g., municipalities,
counties) needed to identify the residence of the respondent.
Screening question for region (example of London and Glasgow)
London
Do you live in Greater London?
Glasgow
Do you live in …
1. The city of Glasgow
2. The council area of East Dunbartonhsire
3. The council area of East Renfrewshire
4. The council area of Renfrewshire
Finally, in Lisbon, both screening via postcode as well as via region (Friguesia in Lisbon)
proved challenging. The pilot test showed that part of the respondents could not with
certainty confirm either, and therefore tend to answer “Lisbon” when asked their region of
residence – referring to the city at large. Because their responses still indicated that they
live in the target region, we added to the screening question an extra response option
“Lisboa”. This avoided that respondents who don’t know their Freguesia, although there is
nevertheless a high chance that they live in the target city, would need to be screened out.

2.2.2 Socio-demographic background questions
After the pilot test, some changes were made to the socio-demographic background
questions. The reasons for this was in all cases that the background questions were
sometimes long and difficult to answer, putting large burden on the respondents and
creating a risk of inaccuracies in their responses. These changes concerned the following
questions in the original questionnaire:
D8. Which of the following best describes your household composition? With
household, we mean all people that typically live with you in the same residence.
Please include anyone who is temporarily away for work, study or vacation
D9. How many people usually live in your household? Please include yourself.
D8 caused confusion among several respondents, as well as some resistance because of
the length of the response options – especially because it comes at the end of the interview.
Additionally, the follow-up question in D9 also showed to confuse respondents because
they have the feeling that they already gave that information in D8.
However, since D8 is a standardized background question, too large changes to D8 were
difficult, because this can jeopardize comparability with previous waves and other cities
that have organized the survey independently. Nevertheless, we proposed to make one
adjustment, by replacing the question order and asking D9 before D8. This allowed to ask
only D9 to people living alone, because they could automatically be coded as a one-person
household in D8.3 Second, in doing so, the response option list in D9 becomes slightly
shorter, because the option “one-person household” does not need to be asked anymore.
D11. Which of the following best describes your current working status?
For D11 as well, the large number of response options - that are in themselves also rather
long and similar to each other - regularly caused confusion and impatience among
respondents. We made a similar adjustment as for D8, by first asking a simpler question
that covers most of the respondents: “Do you currently have a job? (Interviewer
instruction: include employees, employers, self-employed and people working as a relative
assisting on family business)”
This question was applied to 60% of the pilot survey sample. Asking this simpler question
first thus avoids presenting the full list of response options to the majority of respondents,
and it shortened the list of response options to those that fall in another category and still
needed to be asked question D11.
2.2.3 Weighting questions
Specific weighting questions were added to allow collection of the data needed to calculate
weights. This applies to 2 aspects of the weighting:
3 This concerns about 20% of the sample according to the pilot test.
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 17
Phone ownership. The sample design assumes that landline phones are accessible
by all household members, and that mobile phones are personally owned and thus
accessible only to the person that answers the phone. In the survey, we measure
the access to mobile and landline phones, so that we can weight for the higher
selection probability of people that have access to both a landline and a mobile
phone (as opposed to only a landline or a mobile phone).
D14. Do you personally own a mobile phone?
D15. Do you have a landline phone in the household?
Household size. The target population of the Perception Survey are city residents
aged 15 or over. In order to accurately calculate the design weight for the landline
sample (to take into account the selection probability of people reached within their
household via a landline), we need to measure the number of eligible people within
each household – i.e., all household members aged 15 or over. A question to gather
this was added to the final questionnaire, as a follow-up to question D9:
D9. How many people usually live in your household? Please include yourself.
D9b. How many of these are aged 15 and older? Please include yourself.
2.2.4 Changes related to GDPR compliance
The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, Regulation (EU)
2016/679), entered into force on 24 May 2016 and applicable since 25 May 2018, puts
strong responsibility on survey organizers to assure the protection of people’s privacy and
the correct handling of their personal data. Informing respondents of their rights and how
any personal data are treated, and acquiring consent to collect, process and store their
data are two key elements of the GDPR. To that end, the questionnaire was adjusted in
several places:
A privacy notice (to which respondents are referred for a full overview of what
kinds of personal data are gathered from them, how these are stored, what
respondents’ rights are with regard to these data and who they can contact with
questions, concerns or the request to delete their data) was added.
The design of the introduction was designed in such a way that it was ensured
that informed consent was gathered from the selected respondent. In practice, this
means that for respondents on the landline sample, consent is only confirmed by
the final respondent. Because of within-household selection, this might not
necessarily be the first person to answer the phone. The consent confirmation was
therefore moved from the very start of the interview (with the first respondent on
the phone) to the moment that the finally selected target respondent comes to the
phone.
Q15 asks respondents about their current health situation. Under GDPR, health
information is considered a special category of personal data. Consequently, stricter
rules apply for gathering these data. Respondents need to be asked consent to ask
such information before the question is asked and need to be told explicitly that
answering the question is voluntary. To comply with this, a question is added right
before Q15:
Q15a. The next question is about your health status. Please remember that all your
responses will be treated confidentially. You do not have to answer this question if
you do not want to. Are you happy to proceed?
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 18
1. Yes
2. No
In order to avoid that this emphasis on the personal nature of the question scares
off respondents and leads to preliminary break-offs, question Q15 was moved to
the very end of the questionnaire. If respondents refused to be asked a question
about their health, this was coded as a refusal for question Q15, and the interview
was considered a complete.
2.3 Pilot testing
The pilot test methodology was identical to the setup that is envisaged for the main
fieldwork. The exact same sample, script, translations and technical infrastructure were
used for the questionnaire. Fieldwork monitoring procedures and quality checks were also
the same as used for the main fieldwork. All interviewers and supervisors participating in
the survey were briefed beforehand, and those participating in the pilot test received
specific instructions about what to focus on in the test. This allowed to evaluate the full
survey design in all countries.
The pilot test took place between 6 and 15 May. Calling took place predominantly in the
late afternoon and evening during weekdays. Other times of the day were available for
appointments. In each city, 30 complete interviews were conducted. No quota were set.
2.4 Main fieldwork
2.4.1 Timing
Because the survey fieldwork was estimated to take about 9 weeks and the fieldwork could
not begin earler than June, it was decided to split the fieldwork in two parts, with a pause
between 15 July and 1 September. This way it could be avoided to conduct fieldwork in the
summer period of July and August, 2 months that generally see a steep decline in response
rates because of the summer holidays.
The fieldwork start was originally set for 6 June, but was eventually moved to 12 June –
the reason for this being a number of adjustments to the questionnaire that had to be
implemented and replaced.
Despite this short delay in the start of the fieldwork, the fieldwork ended on 27 September
2019, as originally scheduled.
2.4.2 Fieldwork follow-up
The fieldwork was followed up closely on a weekly basis along the following parameters:
Total completes, per city (in absolute numbers and percentage of the total target)
Distribution of the sample for each city according to:
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 19
o Age and gender (to monitor deviations from the population)
o Phone type (to monitor sample performance in the mobile and landline
frames)
o LAU (where available4, to monitor the spread of the sample over the whole
city)
Percentage of ineligible screened-out respondents because of their sub-city region
of residence, per city (to monitor the quality of the sample in terms of incidence
rate)
Number of bad quality cases, per city
Average interview duration, per country
For the interrupted interviews: how often a particular question was the last question
answered (to help evaluate whethere there are any questions that have a higher
chance of leading to interview break-offs)
Non-response percentage per question
In the first week of the fieldwork, members from the research team also listend in to live
interviews in several countries to evaluate the interview quality (in Belgium, the
Netherlands, France, Germany and Poland).
2.5 Reporting and data delivery
2.5.1 Data delivery
The following data files were prepared:
A first datafile containing ‘conventional’ question/response labels and codes,
corresponding to the questions and responses as given in the English master
questionnaire. Besides the response data this file also contains paradata such as
interview time and date, weighting factors and sample background data.
A second datafile which uses Eurobase labels and codes. This coding system is
developed by Eurostat and has been revised and expanded so that it can be applied
to the 2019 version of the Perception Survey.
In addition to these microdata files, a table of indicators (i.e., question responses)
in aggregated form, as weighted totals computed for each city. This is delivered as
an Excel file.
2.5.2 Recoding of question Q13_5 for Tirana
Question 13_5 asked to what extent respondents agreed to the following statement:
4 In Ireland and the United Kingdom it was not possible to follow up on the distribution of the sample at LAU level, because respondents are only screened for their residence in the city as a whole (e.g., “Greater London”).
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 20
‘There is corruption in my local public administration’
In the Albanian translation used in Tirana (AL), this was erroneously translated as ‘there
is no corruption in my local public administration’ – that is, the inverse of the master item.
For this reason to allow for consistent reporting and comparability between all cities of the
survey, the responses for Tirana to this question were recoded to their inverse as well.
Specifically, the following recoding was applied:
‘Strongly agree’ to ‘strongly disagree’
‘Somewhat agree’ to ‘somewhat disagree’
‘Somewhat disagree’ to ‘somewhat agree’
‘Strongly disagree’ to ‘strongly agree’
Don’t know responses were not recoded.
3 Weighting
3.1 Weighting procedure
The following calibration weighting factors were taken into account in the weighting
approach:
• Age (four subgroups: 15-24, 25-39, 40-54 and 55+)
• Gender (male and female)
Initially, it was also considered to include sub-city level (commune) residence into account
for weighting, to ensure that the results would be representative for the whole city by
avoiding biases stemming from the possibility that some parts of a city would be
overrepresented in the data. This, however, ran against the practical difficulty that in many
cities the number of lower-level communes is very high, making outright weighting at that
level impossible. Grouping of communes into larger groups is in theory a measure to
resolve that issue. However, in order to do that, it would be necessary to first determine
which communes would for coherent wholes, and on what basis such merging would be
done besides mere geographical adjacency. This also means that, in absence of clear
parameters to determine the properties of such larger city regions (e.g., does one region
clearly differ from another in terms of population age, income, social status), there is no
clear way to verify whether a weighting according to regional distribution of the sample is
even warranted. For these reasons, it was decided to not weight the data according to sub-
city level region. However, because of the fact that the base principle of striving for a good
spread across city regions is still useful and will likely improve the quality of the sample,
as an alternative measure this spread was aimed for as much as possible in the sampling
stage. That is, in the gross sample for each city it was checked whether the distribution of
phone numbers over the city LAUs was proportionate to the population distribution.
In addition to a post-stratification weight on age and gender, a design weight was also
applied to control for unequal selection probabilities of sample units (see the following
section for more information on the rationale behind this approach), based on phone type
ownership (% mobile, % fixed, % mobile and fixed).
3.1.1 Post-stratification & design weighting
The sample was weighted in each country using a post-stratification weight, including age
and gender, and a design weight.
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 21
The use of a design weight has become common in telephone surveys when calling on both
mobile and fixed lines (dual frame) as there is an overlap between frames with respondents
who could be sampled from both. This means that the probability to be selected equals the
probability of being called on one’s fixed line plus the probability of being called on one’s
mobile line minus the probability of being called both on one’s fixed and mobile line.
𝜋𝑖 = 𝜋𝑖 (𝐹𝑁) + 𝜋𝑖(𝑀𝑁) − 𝜋𝑖(𝐹𝑁 ⋂ 𝑀𝑁)
(Where FN is the population of people with a fixed line and MN the population of people
with a mobile line.)
The latter term, however, is generally very small and can be excluded from the analysis:
𝜋𝑖 = 𝜋𝑖 (𝐹𝑁) + 𝜋𝑖(𝑀𝑁) − 𝜋𝑖(𝐹𝑁 ⋂ 𝑀𝐹)
Another aspect to take into account is that a mobile line is typically used by an individual,
while a fixed line is typically a household device, and is thus shared by several (eligible)
persons; however, only one person in the household will answer the phone, which means
that his/her selection probability will be lower. A full calculation of the selection probability
should therefore rely on data on the number of phone lines per respondent as well as the
number of people per line.
This is taken into account in the following formula:
𝜋𝑖 ≈𝑛𝐹
𝑁𝐹
∗ 𝐹𝑖
𝑍𝑖
+ 𝑛𝑀
𝑁𝑀
∗𝑀𝑖
𝑍𝑖
nF = sample size fixed numbers; NF = population size fixed numbers ; nM=sample
size mobile numbers; NM=population size mobile numbers
Fi = number of fixed lines the respondent can be reached on, Zi = number of persons
that can be reach via these fixed lines
Mi = number of mobile lines the respondent can be reached on, Zm = number of
persons that can be reach via these mobile lines
However, this theory has come under pressure over the past years due to several flaws:
Having several people using the same fixed line in a household lowers their
probability to be selected, but chances are also higher that at least one person is at
home, which increases the selection probability.
If someone uses several mobile lines, their selection probability increases, although
it is unlikely that this person will have both mobile phones with them and switched
on at all times.
Based on these comments and the need to include several additional questions for the full
approach, a different approach was applied. The expected number of people available per
line was set to 1 for both fixed and mobile lines, resulting in the following formula:
𝜋𝑖 ≈𝑛𝐹
𝑁𝐹
∗ 𝐹𝑖 + 𝑛𝑀
𝑁𝑀
∗ 𝑀𝑖
In this formula, the terms Fi and Mi are equal to 1 if the respondent owns respectively a
fixed/mobile line, regardless of the number of fixed/mobile lines they can be reached on.

Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 22
3.1.2 Weight trimming
Weight trimming was also applied so that any computed non-response weights outside the
following limits are recoded to the boundary of these limits:
1
3 ≤
𝐸(𝑤𝐻𝐷)𝑤𝐻𝐷
𝐸(𝑤𝐻𝑁)𝑤𝐻𝑁
≤ 3
wHD = household design weight
wHN = the weight determined after adjustment (calibration)
E(wHD) and E(wHN) = their respective mean values
This approach does not rely on an absolute threshold, but offers a relative threshold based
on the data.
3.1.3 Population extrapolation
Finally, in addition to the two weights used, the Perception Survey microdata also contain
a population weighting factor. This allows to extrapolate the results from each city to their
actual population size, instead of the sample sizes of the survey. This is useful in case one
wants to group the data from multiple cities (e.g., all cities from one country) – in that
case it can be preferred to have each city only contribute to the grouped results
proportionate to their population size (e.g., Groningen less than Amsterdam and Rotterdam
in the Netherlands).
3.1.4 Using the weights
The microdata contains 3 weighting variables:
1. The design weight factor
2. A factor combining the design weight and the post-stratification weight (named
‘reslinweight’)
3. The population weight factor
The aggregated results by city have been calculated using the second factor, ‘reslinweight’.
When replicating the results for single cities, this factor should always be used. In case one
wants to balance the samples using other socio-demographic samples than age and
gender, this is possible, and then the design weight factor can be used as a starting point.
In case one wants to recalculate the design weight, the variable ‘mobfix’ contains the phone
type information (which respondents had access to a mobile phone, landline or both)
needed to do that.
Finally, as said, the population weight factor should only be used if one wants to combine
the results from multiple cities and wants to take into account the differences in population
sizes between those cities. This factor has not been used to produce the aggregate results
by city under this contract, as those tables only consider cities individually. However, for
the calculation of significant differences between cities the sample size does come into
play, since the significant differences as shown in the tables are calculated by comparing
a city’s result to the average of all cities. For this average, the population differences were
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 23
not taken into account, since it was considered most appropriate in this context to compare
cities as equal entities, rather than groups of people that differ in size.
3.2 Weighting benchmarks
3.2.1 Age and gender
Weighting benchmarks for age and gender (which were also used during the fieldwork for
monitoring of the sample performance) were based on Eurostat data for all cities within
the EU and the United Kingdom.5 For all these countries, age and gender targets were
determined for the population aged 15 or over. For other countries, local sources were
used. For cities in these countries it was not always possible to determine the gender
distribution for the 15+ population. In that case, the distribution of the full population was
used. Given that gender distributions differ only marginally over age, this can safely be
assumed to have no significant impact. An overvies of the sources used for non-EU cities
is presented in the table below. Also, for these cities the population data are not always
fully corresponding to the city as defined for the Perception Survey. Wherever this was not
possible, the closest equivalent region was used.

3.2.2 Phone ownership
Phone ownership targets were determined estimated based on the achieved sample
for the Market Monitoring Survey 2017 (MMS 2017).6 The MMS 2017 data is based
on a bigger sample size and the more robust data. First, with a sample of 137,608
respondents, the achieved sample of the MMS 2017 is much larger than the sample of the
Eurobarometer study (n = 27,739 respondents). Second, the phone ownership information
in the MMS data is based on a sample of all contacted respondents, while the
Eurobarometer study only includes respondents that were willing to participate in the
study. In this way, the MMS data is more robust, as it does not include a participation bias.

3.3 Design effects and weighting efficiency per city
The below table gives an overview of the design effects for each city (combining the design
weight and the post-stratification weight), as well as the sample balance, used here as a
measure for weighting efficiency. The weighting efficiency is good in almost all cities, but
can be considered low in Antalya, Diyarbakir and Ankara, and to a lesser extent Istanbul
and Riga (taking into account a desired weighting efficiency of 70% or higher). Given that
in all these cities the deviations in age and gender distribution are not especially high, the
reason for this lower efficiency needs to be sought in the phone type access deviations that
have impacted the design weight.

7 The design effect (deff) for each city is calculated using Kish’s formula (1965). The deff indicates how much the
expected sampling error in a survey deviates from the sampling error that can be expected under simple
random sampling which is the gold standard in sample surveys. To calculate deff, the number of sample
observations is multiplied by the sum of the squared weights over the square of the sum of the weights for
each city.
8 The sample balance is the inverse of the weight factor – i.e., 1 divided by the weight factor. It shows the size of
the weighted sample as a percentage of the unweighted sample.

4 Sample performance analysis
4.1 Target population versus achieved distribution
4.1.1 Age
The table on the following page shows the unweighted distribution of the sample over
broader age groups. Throughout the fieldwork, potential skews, particularly towards older
age groups, were an important focus point.
Wit the full sample collected, a slight underrepresentation of younger people can indeed
be observed. Looking at the individual age categories, the deviation is no source of concern,
taking as a rule of thumb that a deviation of 5% in any direction is acceptable. This is
confirmed by the weighting efficiency figures (see 3.3 above), which see no strong impact
from this skew. Even when counting together the deviations from the 2 youngest age
groups, the average deviation remains at 4%. There are, however, differences between
cities. It can be noted, for instances, that several cities in the UK (London, Cardiff, Belfast,
Glasgow) have an underrepresentation of the 15-34 age group of between 9 and 11% -
though the skew is far less in Newcastle and the Tyneside Conurbation. Other cities that
show a larger skew when combining the two younges age groups are Rennes (-12%),
Stockholm (-10%) and Podgorica (-10%).
On ther other hand, in all Turkish cities – but in no other city in any country – there is an
overrepresentation of younger people. An exceptionally high overrepresentation of younger
people is seen in Diyarbakir (+18% in the age group 15-34).

The reasons for these differences between cities are not clear and cannot immediately be
found in the available data. The general skew towards older people, however, is not
uncommon in CATI surveys. Keeping this tendency in mind, the 2019 Perception Survey
performed rather well, keeping the skew limited to acceptable levels.

4.1.2 Gender
The table below shows the unweighted gender distribution in the final sample for each city.
Only one skew stands out from other cities: For Skopje the sample contains 7% more
males than expected based on population figures (56% vs. 49). While this might be in part
due to the fact that the Skopje population data used for benchmarking do not cover the
exact city as defined for the Perception Survey, the discrepancy between males and
females is still higher than what one would normally expect in a general population survey.
Here too, however, the reason for this skew cannot be identified from the available survey
data.

4.1.3 Phone ownership
Since the 2019 Perception Survey worked with dual-frame approach for the sample design,
it was important to monitor during the fieldwork the distribution of numbers from the 2
sample frames (landline and mobiles) in the completed sample. This distribution is not only
relevant for the calculation of the design weights (see chapter 3), but it also indirectly
impacts the socio-demographic profile of the sample. For instance, mobile phone users are
typically somewhat younger than landline users.
As already noted (see chapter 2), for the mobile number frame it was not in each city
possible to build a gross sample that contained the envisaged amount of phone numbers
(24 times the target sample). As a countermeasure more landline numbers were included
in the gross sample in these cities. For that reason mobile phone numbers were prioritized
in these cities an called more often if needed, with the goal to increase the proportion of
mobile numbers in the final sample and bring it as close as possible to the target
distribution. This was a success in most cities. Only in 12 cities, there was a deviation from
the mobile sample targets of more than 10%, with notable spikes in Riga and Podgorica.
It should be noted, however, that such deviations are only problematic to the extent that
they result in biases in the socio-demographic profile of the samples as well. As shown
above, such biases are only limited for the parameters taken into consideration (age and
gender).

4.1.4 Eligibility
The total proportion of respondents (on the total of respondents that were asked the
screening questions) that was ineligible for participation because they lived outside of the
targeted city regions was 21% over all cities. This means an overall incidence rate of 79%.
However, there are clear differences between the cities, as can be seen in the table below.
In 23 cities, the proportion of screen-outs because of a residence outside of the target city
is above 25%, and in seven it was above 50%, meaning that there was a higher chance
that the respondent would not be eligible for participation than that they would be eligible.
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 38
This can have several possible causes, ranging from a lacking reliability in the available
source material that was used to link sample units to post codes (i.e., respondents actually
live in another post code area than they have indicated according to the source), to
difficulties among respondents to correctly state their postcode.
It should in any case be noted that a lower incidence rate in a city does not mean that the
sample for that city is lacking quality in terms of representativity. Rather, it means that
more gross sample is needed for these cities to reach the target number of completes.
This, however, had no impact on the fieldwork planning.

5 Fieldwork performance analysis
5.1 Interview validation
During the fieldwork, a series of checks were performed once per week on all interviews
to verify their quality. This was done via the following parameters:
- interview length: interviews were flagged if their length was below 50% of the average
length for interviews in a country.10 For instance, if the average interview length in a
country is 10 minutes, interviews shorter than 5 minutes are flagged.
- straightlining: interviews were flagged if they showed straightlining in 4 of the following
multi-item questions (i.e., have the same response in all items): Q1 (10 items), Q2 (7),
Q4 (4) , Q6 (5), Q13 (5). For Q1 and Q2, straightlining on all but one of the items (i.e., 9
in Q1 and 6 in Q2 also counts as straightlining, given the high number of items.
- item non-response: interviews were flagged if there is a non-response (i.e., answering
“don’t know” or refusing to answer) on at least 30% of the substantive questions and 50%
of the socio-demo background questions. Separately, interviews are also flagged if there
is a 75% non-response rate in the large question blocks Q1 and Q2.
Any interview that was flagged for 2 of the above checks was selected for removal.
Suspicious interviews were assessed and treated (i.e., excluded and replaced) during the
fieldwork itself, so that no interviews had to me removed from the final sample.
The table below gives an overview of the interviews removed based on these checks, per
city (in cities not mentioned no cases had to be removed).

5.2 Interview breakoffs
The table below shows the main different parts of the questionnaire, each time with the
break-off percentage (as proportion of the total group of people that terminated the
interview before the end). In other words, the table shows at which points in the survey
respondents were most likely to quit. It stands out from this overview that the likelihood
to break off the interview is at its highest during the Q3 question block. This is not
surprising, since Q3 is the third consecutive item block after Q1 and Q2, together
comprising of 23 questions. In total, just over half of the interview break-offs occurs before
the start of Q4. From Q4 on, the break-off probability decreases again, but with a spike in
Q6 – which is again a 5-item question block.
It is notable that once the background questions are reached, almost all respondents reach
the end of the interview – only 1.5% of the break-offs occurs during the socio-demographic
background questions.

Q3.4 Is the city where you live a good place or not a
good place to live for the following groups? Racial and ethnic minorities.
9.45%
Q15 In general, how is your health? 8.03%
It is likely that the main reason for the higher non-response in these items is the fact that
some respondents feel that they do not have enough knowledge of, or experience with,
the topics of these questions. For instance, people who do not use a city’s educational or
sport facilities may not be able to tell whether they are satisfied with them in response to
questions Q1.3 and Q1.7, respectively. Similarly, if they have no (recent) experience with
searching for a job or a house, they might conclude that they don’t know whether it is easy
to find one in their city (cf. questions Q2.2 and Q2.5, respectively).
Two special cases are the following:
- Q4.2 is asked to all respondents, also those who are retired and still in school. For the
latter groups, the response is coded as “don’t know” during the interview, and will after
the fieldwork be recoded to “not applicable”.
- Q15 discusses the respondent’s health, which is a special category of personal data (see
2.3.4). The sensitivity of the question is in itself already likely to increase non-response.
In addition to that, GDPR requires an explicit consent verification before the question can
be asked. 5% of respondents opted out after being asked consent in Q15a, and another
3% chose not to answer the question after agreeing to hear it – bringing the total non-
response rate for Q15 to 8%.

5.4 Response rates
5.4.1 Response rates in the 2019 Perception Survey
The technical report contains an overview per city of the response rate, calculated
according to AAPOR guidelines. Specifically, the Technical Report contains the following
figures:
AAPOR response rate type 1. This is the most conservative response rate type.
It represents the number of complete interviews (700 in all cities) as a percentage
of the total working not-ineligible sample that was used in the fieldwork. With ‘not-
ineligible’ we mean all respondents that were not confirmed ineligible – a large part
of this being people that refuse to participate and for which eligibility could not be
confirmed. Ineligible respondents are not taken into account for the response rate
calculation because they do not belong to the target
AAPOR response rate type 3. This response rate figure considers partial
interviews also as successful interviews (in the sense that responses were
gathered), thus counting them together with complete interviews in the calculation
of the response rate.
AAPOR response rate type 4. This response rate type also counts partial
interviews as successful. In addition to that, it makes an assumption about the
eligibility of those respondents that could not be screened (i.e., that were not
reached of refused to participate before the screening questions could be asked).
This is calculated by adding to the calculation a factor that assumes the proportion
in the full sample that was actually ineligible (and should thus not be included in
the response rate calculation). This factor is the ratio of confirmed eligible vs.
confirmed ineligible respondents, as measured by the screening questions.
The below table shows AAPOR response rate type 4 per city. This response rate calculation
gives the best idea of how many sample units that could have led to a complete interview
actually did, precisely because it includes an approximation of how much of the base
sample was actually not eligible.
The response rate in most cities was below the 4% that was estimated at the beginning of
the project, most often ranging between 2 and 4%. In some cities, particularly those in
Turkey (12.2% on average) and Romania (10.5%), the response rate was notably higher.

5.4.2 Impact and significance of response rates
While the response rate achieved in the 2019 Perception Survey can be considered low in
absolute terms (only about 2 in every 100 phone numbers in the gross sample resulting in
a complete interview), the response rate is not significantly below what is nowadays often
seen in CATI surveys. The decline of landline connections and the shifting habits of phone
use (towards chat message applications like Whatsapp and video messaging, rather than
phone conversations), and increased used of number recognition and number blocking on
mobile phones, makes reaching respondents ever more difficult. This is a challenge that
concerns all CATI surveys.
A general objective when organizing surveys is indeed to maximize response rates, this
both from the perspective of fieldwork efficiency as well as maintaining data quality by
avoiding non-response bias. It is the latter (non-response bias) that is sometimes seen as
the biggest risk related to declining response rates.
Non-response bias is the phenomenon where survey data are affected by non-response
because the opinions from those that participated in the survey are significantly different
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 46
from those that did not respond. It needs to be emphasized, however, that the relationship
between response rates and potential non-response bias is a complex one, and that low
non-response is a necessary but not a sufficient condition of non-response bias.
Specifically, non-response bias only applies to individual variables (rather than surveys as
a whole), and only if there is a non-zero correlation between a given variable and the
likelihood that someone participates in the survey. It also needs to be taken into account
that any non-response bias that is related to variables that are also used for weighting
(i.e., when younger respondents are harder to reach) is already balanced out – of course
only to a certain level of skews in these variables – by the weighting.
Academic studies of non-response fall into two types, Absolute Non-Response studies and
Relative Non-Response studies. Absolute Non-Response studies compare survey estimates
to good estimates of a “true” value of a variable, normally from the Census to look at total
non-response bias. Relative non-response bias studies assess how survey estimates
change with increasing fieldwork effort (e.g. number of contact attempts, extent of
reissuing). There are two key academic meta-analysis studies:
• Groves and Peycheva (2008) 11 conducted a meta-analysis of Absolute Non-
Response in 59 studies (covering 959 estimates). While they found examples of
large non-response bias existing, they also found that there was a very low
correlation between non-response bias and response rates, and greater
variation within studies than between them. They argue for the importance of
finding theories that link unit non-response to non-response bias and make a
distinction between missing respondents that don’t introduce bias and those
that do. An example would be young men, living on their own, and whether they
play sport. These type of households tend to be underrepresented in household
surveys. Weighting can help account for this, but only if those who are
interviewed are similar to those who are not. If, for example, not enough
fieldwork effort is made and those who are out playing sport several time a week
are not contacted, it could be assumed that bias would remain after weighting.
This, however, is taking into account explicitly in the Perception Survey
fieldwork setup by conducting multiple contact attempts and by spreading these
attempts over different times of the day and the week – thus succeeding in
keeping the skew towards older people relatively low.
• Sturgis et al (2016) 12 examined relative non-response bias and fieldwork effort
in 541 non-demographic variables in six surveys. They conclude that “response
rate appears to have only a weak association with non-response bias”.
In short, it is important to remember that while non-response bias does occur, it is
important to be aware of the relative importance of response rates in the overall set of
factors that eventually determine survey outcomes. With respect to survey fieldwork
organization and effective use of the available resources, it needs to be considered on a
survey-by-survey basis whether extra fieldwork effort to increase response rates or to
reach a certain pre-set target in this regards is the right strategy, given that its likely
impact will be low.

Annex 2 contains a table showing the differences between the 2019 and the 2015 results
of the Perception Survey (overall, combined for all cities). This comparison was made to
verify whether the changes in the sample design, the screening procedure and the
weighting of the data had any impact on the data that would cause deviations that go
beyond what could be considered normal variance or trend changes between two waves.
7 Recommendations for future waves
- The 2019 Perception Survey applied a new sampling approach that relied on the
availability of publicly available geolocation data linked to phone numbers to identify
eligible mobile phone sample. In evaluation of this approach, 2 major conclusions can be
drawn. First, in most cities the approach proved successful in building a sample that was
at the same time big enough (enough numbers could be gathered to yield the target
amount of mobile number interviews in the final sample) and accurate enough (in most
cities a clear majority of the selected units proved indeed to be eligible, greatly increasing
calling efficiency). Second, building a mobile phone sample in this way is time-intensive,
and in the scheduling of a future wave – should the same method be applied – enough
time should be foreseen to build a mobile sample in this way.
- Measured per age group, the deviations from the targets are quite small. There is,
however, a slight skew away from younger people (-35). This may in part be due to a
higher proportion of landline numbers in the sample, though as said the landline skew is
only moderate in the final sample. More importantly, it is also the case that younger people
are simply harder to reach over the phone, even via mobile phones. While the results of
the 2019 Perception Survey do not show reason for great concern yet, there is a possibility
that this trend in CATI surveys will continue. In the longer term, it is therefore advisable
to look into the possibilities that other survey modes (e.g., web and smartphone) and other
recruitment modes (e.g., via social media) have to offer. This should of course be
accompanied with an analysis of mode and sample source biases and the effects that they
can have on comparability.
- Already during the pilot, it became clear that the questionnaire has some elements that
create a heightened risk of observation issues. First, the sequence of big grid questions in
the beginning of the survey puts a big burden on the respondents, as is demonstrated by
the fact that we can observe a big dropout around the Q2-Q4 block. It should be noted
that while a dropout is an issue mostly for the fieldwork efficiency, with less impact on the
data quality itself (because the data from terminated interviews are not counted), it is also
indicative of a risk that responses to these questions from respondents that remain in the
interview (and are thus included in the results) are also of lower quality. This can be solved
by either making the questionnaire more focussed (i.e. shorter), or by splitting the grids
in smaller parts and spreading them over the interview, so that the cognitive load of the
interview is distributed more evenly.
Second, trying to measure respondents’ occupation in a way that is comparable with
universe statistics is notoriously difficult to do efficiently in a CATI survey. If comparison
with benchmark statistics is necessary, coding occupation according to ISCO codes is
necessary. However, identifying the right ISCO category for a respondent’s given
occupation is complex, and accuracy of this task can be considerably increased by using
an approach with multiple questions. Within the present design, however, this might be
difficult, since the questionnaire is already quite long. If this is to remain a background
variable in future waves, and if comparison against universe statistics is deemed
necessary, we advise that it is still asked by using one question, as is presently done but
with giving enough examples to interviewers on how to code the most common types of
occupations. However, if the occupation data are only needed for comparison between
cities and for research purposes without comparison to a wider universe, it can be
considered to use questions with response categories that are easier to grasp for
Quality of Life in European Cities Survey 2019
Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy 2020 48
respondents. An example could be for instance the categories used in the Market
Monitoring Survey over the past years:
What is your current occupation?
1. Self-employed
2. Manager
3. Other white collar
4. Blue collar
5. Student
6. House-person and other not in employment
7. Seeking a job
8. Retired
- Any future wave should always identify the best screening option per city to identify
whether respondents live in the target region. This cannot always be done via postcode,
but as the Lisboa example (see 2.3.1) shows, it is also not always easy to ask for local
regions. Moreover, as administrative and statistical boundaries, as well as postcode
systems, change, it needs to be determined for each new wave whether previously used
screening questions can still work. Local expertise is indispensable here.
- English was offered in all cities as an optional language to take the interview in, in order
to include as much as possible immigrant populations that might not (yet) speak the local
language well enough to be able (or feel comfortable) to do the interview in that language.
However, it was only very rarely used – the most in Paris (7 times) and Luxembourg (9
times). To the extent that it is easy for fieldwork agencies to offer this option, it is worth
considering keeping this option. This is most likely in centrally organised fieldwork, working
from a small number of hubs. In case of heavily decentralized fieldwork, with local agencies
in each country, offering English might require extra investment from these local centres
that will not pay off, given the rare use of the option by respondents.
