  4. SELF-REPORT • Almost everything we know about sexual behaviors • Population Surveys • Evaluation of Interventions • Clinical Medicine • Privacy, SAQs, and , Audio-CASI

  5. T-ACASI • Developed by Phil Cooley in 1994-95. • Human interviewers recruit respondents and introduce survey • Computer-recorded questions played and respondents used telephone keypad to respond • First demonstration of impact of T-ACASI: 1996 ASC meetings

  6. T-ACASI Advantages • Entirely private administration • Completely standardized – everyone hears exactly same question wording, intonation • Eases multilingual interviewing

  7. NSBME: National STD and Behavior Measurement Experiment Two probability samples of English speaking adults ages 18-45 living in households with telephones National stratum, N=1,543 Baltimore stratum, N=744 Telephone numbers randomly assigned to T-IAQ or T-ACASI condition
