"Obtaining accurate survey data on ethnic minorities is not easy. Ethnic minorities are usually underrepresented in surveys, and it is moreover not certain that those who do take part in surveys are representative of the group the researcher is interested in. For example, is it only people with a high education level who take part? To ensure that everyone can participate, a tailor-made approach is needed, for example by translating the questionnaires and using interviewers with the same ethnic background as the intended respondents. This tailor-made approach can lead to higher response rates, but can we be certain that a translated questionnaire still measures the same things as the original? In order for the results to be regarded as reliable, survey data need to be of good quality, different groups need to be readily comparable-despite linguistic differences-and ideally the data should also be available quickly. How quickly the results are needed and the overall budget also determine the upper limit of the data quality: obtaining a high response, for example, requires a longer fieldwork period"--Page 4 of cover.
