    Replication data for: Detecting and Deterring Information Search in Online Surveys

    No full text
    This paper introduces a framework for evaluating methods of combatting information search in online surveys. Three empirical studies based on the framework suggest that search is a serious but manageable problem. Search frequency varies substantially with question content, ranging from 2 to 30 percent in batteries of general political knowledge questions. Deterrence works: a pledge not to cheat reduces search by half. Detection also works: web browser paradata identify 70-85 percent of search, while 60-85 percent of search on knowledge questions is undertaken by respondents who correctly answer ``catch'' questions about obscure Supreme Court cases. Detection and deterrence are complements: deterrence reduces search ex ante, while detection quantifies success and provides ex post options for dealing with undeterred search. In combination, the three methods tested (pledge, paradata, catch) deter or detect more than 90 percent of search, leaving search to affect about 0.5 percent of the remaining observations

    Replication Data for: Self-Awareness of Political Knowledge

    No full text
    Despite widespread concern over false beliefs about politically-relevant facts, little is known about how strongly Americans believe their answers to poll questions. I propose a conceptual framework for characterizing survey responses about facts: self-awareness, or how well people can assess their own knowledge. I measure self-awareness of political knowledge by eliciting respondent certainty about answers to 24 factual questions about politics. Even on “unfavorable” facts that are inconvenient to the respondent’s political party, more-certain respondents are more likely to answer correctly. Because people are somewhat aware of their ignorance, respondents usually describe their incorrect responses as low-certainty guesses, not high-certainty beliefs. Where misperceptions exist, they tend to be bipartisan: Democrats and Republicans perform poorly on the same questions and explain their answers using similar points of reference
