Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: We conducted an incentive experiment on a recent CATI survey of TANF recipients in an east coast state. The experiment entailed randomly assigning the full sample (n=585) into two groups. The first group was offered $20 for completing the survey. The second group was offered $35 for completing the survey. The experiment was carried out for the entire length of the field period (9 weeks), and we did not increase the amount of the incentive in either group. Overall, the survey realized a 72 percent- completion rate. The experiment yielded some predictable results.
