ESRA 2015, Reykjavik: Call for Session Proposals

The 6th Conference of the European Survey Research Association (ESRA) will take
place 13th-17th July 2015 in Reykjavik, Iceland.

The scientific committee is now inviting researchers who are active in the field
of survey research and survey methodology to submit proposals to organise
sessions at the conference.

For your session to be considered, please submit an abstract (max. 300 words)
together with 3-5 keywords through the conference website
(www.europeansurveyresearch.org/conference) by 15th September 2014. To submit a
proposal you must login to your ESRA account (or create a new account if you do
not already have one) and then follow the instructions provided.
Session proposals are invited in any area of survey methodology, or in
substantive areas of survey research. We encourage proposals from researchers
with a variety of backgrounds, including academic research, national statistics
and market research.

The following are examples of topics that are of particular interest:
•	Sample designs, coverage, and sampling
•	Fieldwork processes
•	Unit and item nonresponse
•	Weighting and imputation
•	Questionnaire development, testing and piloting
•	Interviewers and interviewer effects
•	Mixing modes and mode effects
•	Online survey methods
•	Surveys using mobile devices
•	Linking survey data to auxiliary data sources
•	Using paradata to evaluate survey quality
•	Methods for cross-national and cross-cultural surveys
•	Longitudinal surveys and longitudinal analysis techniques
•	Methodological considerations specific to certain survey modes: face-to-face,
phone, web, mail, etc.
•	Analysing, monitoring and reducing the Total Survey Error
•	Data documentation, archiving and data access
•	Survey analysis techniques
•	Election polling and public opinion
•	Social indicators
•	Substantive applications of survey research

As a session organiser you are expected to encourage paper submissions to your
session, review paper proposals with regards to their suitability in terms of
focus and quality, liaise with presenters and the conference organisers and
chair their session during the conference. If the conference committee accepts
your proposal, your session will be advertised in an open call for papers that
will be issued in October 2014.

The organizing committee - Bart Meuleman, Annelies Blom, Eldad Davidov, Gudbjorg
Andrea Jonsdottir, Nick Allum, Patrick Sturgis
