4.1 Survey frames for economic surveys Group Exercise In your groups, discuss how survey frames for economic surveys are produced in your country. Nominate one group member to present a summary of your discussions to the whole group. Is a common frame extracted from your SBR to use for all surveys or are ad hoc survey frames produced? If a common frame is extracted, how often is it generated? What is done to try to reduce frame errors (for example, comparison of counts between current frame to past frames)? Give an example of an economic survey in your country and describe the specifications for its sampling frame. What is the target population for the survey? What characteristics are needed from the SBR for sampling purposes (besides contact characteristics)? When drawing samples for economic surveys, how is response burden managed for small businesses?
