SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

The Census Bureau has made the

development of user-friendly forms a

key strategy to reduce respondent

burden. The five-person questionnaire

with a continuation roster to list up to

seven additional individuals is shorter

than a comparable seven-person

detailed version. For this reason, the

decision to adopt a five person detail/

twelve person roster mail-out

questionnaire is expected to lessen the

public perception that responding to the

census is an arduous task. The objective

of the Census 2000 Dress Rehearsal

Large Household Follow-up is to

acquire detailed characteristic data for

households with more than five

members. The Census Bureau will

accomplish this by performing followup activities for larger households

which list additional household

members on the census original

questionnaire roster.

II. Method of Collection

The methodology selected for the

Census 2000 Dress Rehearsal Large

Household Follow-up is to mail a

customized questionnaire package to

those specific households which listed

six or more individuals on the original

questionnaire. The customized mailing

package will consist of the following

items.

1. An outgoing envelope addressed to

either the respondent name reported on

the original returned questionnaire or

the Person 1 name.

2. A letter listing the names of all

persons on the original questionnaire for

whom detailed characteristics were

provided and the names of all persons

listed on the roster. The letter will

request the respondent provide detailed

characteristics for the additional

individuals listed on the roster.

3. A continuation questionnaire

designed for Person 6 through Person

12.

4. A Business Reply Mail return

envelope for the respondent to return

the continuation questionnaire.

Only one follow-up mailing will be

conducted for each identified large

household. No personal visit or

telephone follow-up is planned.
