Multinational Force and Observers (MFO) Telephone Interview Follow-UP Survey Methods

Abstract

The U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences (ARI) contracted with the Human Resources Research Organization (HumRRO) and Westat to conduct telephone interviews with members of the Multinational Force and Observers (28th rotation) and their spouses. The interviews were conducted as a follow-up to a series of mall-based surveys administered earlier by ARI. The substantive content of the telephone interviews was consistent with the content of the mail surveys. Extensive efforts were made to locate the MFO soldier population as part of this research. A number of automated and investigative resources were used to locate the soldiers, including Telematch, Equifax Government and Special Services, directory assistance, and the Internet. About 19 percent of the MFO soldier population was not located. A total of 336 interviews were completed with MFO soldiers, and 102 interviews were completed with their spouses.
