methodological field test designed to examine the feasibility,
quality, and efficiency of new procedures or revisions to existing

multiple measurements on a set of respondents; assess new methods

goal of increasing response and decreasing potential bias in the
survey estimates; and assess the impact of new sampling techniques
and technologies on respondent behavior.
