Assessing the Cell Phone Challenge

Fully a quarter of the U.S. adult population now relies solely on a cell phone. This paper shows that the potential for bias in telephone surveys that do not include cell only adults has grown since 2006. Of 72 questions examined on a wide range of topics - including political and social attitudes, personal and national economic ratings, foreign policy views, and attitudes toward and the adoption of a wide range of internet and communications technologies - cell phone samples made a difference of 3 percentage points or more on 29 of the questions. In 2006, on 46 questions examined none of the differences exceeded 2 percentage points.
