Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fieldworker misunderstanding is an unintentional error that occurs when the interviewer fails to understand the question or the response of the respondent correctly. It is not intentional, unlike intentional errors which are done with the intention of influencing the results of the research. Instinctive interviewer errors occur when the interviewer asks leading questions or provides cues that may bias the responses of the respondent. Unintentional respondent errors occur when the respondent gives inaccurate responses due to forgetfulness or misunderstanding of the question.
