🤖 Can #AI predict the quality of a survey question?
Our new study shows that a fine-tuned multilingual transformer can match the performance of SQP's traditional prediction approach—directly from question text.

Why did people stop responding to federal economic surveys?
https://www.brookings.edu/articles/why-did-people-stop-responding-to-federal-economic-surveys-what-can-be-done/
Declining response rates challenge the precision and bias of economic indicators like unemployment. Surveys remain vital for capturing nuances, such as job-seeking intent, that administrative data cannot track.
Strong data stewardship and reduced respondent burden are necessary to sustain the statistical system.
