Summary
This case in methodology provides an account of 3-year-long research, giving the reader an insight into some specific methodological problems that arose in the course of the research. The case focuses on the main challenges in using the Thurstone scale to construct a valid and reliable occupational stratification scheme and in testing the stability of such scheme. These challenges refer to sampling, methods of administration of questionnaire and testing techniques. Particular attention is paid to the use of non-probability samples, face-to-face interviews and non-parametric tests as a way of controlling validity of survey data collection instruments.
