?:abstract
  • Public opinion research aims at getting answers to survey questions that represent real attitudes of survey respondents. Yet, the quality of survey responses is likely to vary due to the heterogeneity among survey respondents. Some respondents are more inclined to ‘don’t know’ answers while others ‘guess’, providing answers that have no substantial meaning to them. In this paper, we argue that personality affects response behaviour. Based on the Big Five personality traits, we argue that personality traits have an impact of a respondent’s likelihood to choose ‘don’t know’ answers or to guess wildly when answering survey questions on political ideology. Using data from the German Longitudinal Election Study (GLES), it is shown that personality effects on response behaviour are as important as those of the respondents’ cognitive abilities and motivation (xsd:string)
