Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (Cati) (Computing and Social Science)

A method of coding information from telephone interviews directly into a computer during the interview. CATI software usually has built in consistency checks , will not allow wild codes to be entered, and automatically prompts the interview for correct skip pattern questions
Consistency Check
A process of data cleaning which looks for inappropriate responses to branched questions. For instance, one question might ask if the respondent attended church last week; a response of "no" should skip the questions about church attendance and code the answers to those questions as "inapplicable." If those questions were coded any other way than "inapplicable this would be inconsistent with the skip patterns of the survey instrument.
