Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Questions typically asked in public opinion surveys were placed in six survey versions that differed in their question order. Each of 147 experimental subjects responded to three of the six versions, each at a different time. Supported were the hypotheses that (1) political interest self-reports would be relatively high when subjects experienced no prior difficulty answering political questions; (2) interest would be relatively low when subjects experienced prior difficulty answering political questions, and (3) interest would be relatively moderate when subjects experienced prior difficulty answering political questions but when an excuse for knowledge difficulty was readily available. Not fully supported was the hypothesis that interest would be relatively low when subjected experienced prior difficulty answering political questions and when an excuse for knowledge difficulty was only remotely available. Implications for these findings for the design and analysis of public opinion surveys are discussed.
