Abstract

This paper deals with the question of the utility of an interview schedule as filled out by interviewer after the interrogation. They regard it as a tool that helps to assess quality of collected data. I analyze, here, answers given by the same interviewers to identical questions, but coming from two different interview schedules as well as answers by different interviewers coming from the same interview. Basing on this I attempt to determine whether their reports are valid source in assessment of quality of collected information. Data come from reports given in Appendixes to interviewers in the Polish General Social Survey 1994 and from the methodological research as appended to the PGSS. I compare these reports taking into account: (i) missing informations and (ii) their credibility (extent to which answers given by the same interviewers to the same questions correspond to each other). The analysis shows that reports given by interviewer in an appendix to the interview schedule can by no means serve as a source of evaluation of collected data. It looks to be only preliminary basis in the assessment of validity.
