Summary: Statistics Netherlands is currently re-designing its
household surveys.
All household surveys will gradually be converted from their
singlemode
designs to a general mixed-mode design. In a survey with a
mixed-mode
design we face mode effects of a varying nature. To produce high
quality statistics,
these mode effects need to be taken into account in the design and
the
estimation stage. In this paper we look at one of the sources
underlying these
mode effects, namely the coverage errors.
