This book provides a comprehensive account of the methods used in social surveys. All the stages of a survey are covered, from the original planning to the drafting of the final report. Throughout, the emphasis is on the underlying principles, with particular attention being given to sampling - a subject which often troubles students and research workers. The book will be of great value to students in social sciences as well as research workers, and people concerned with social surveys in government and the business world.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
