Women had significantly higher odds of proxy responses throughout the survey. With lower proxy response probabilities during the lockdown compared to pre-lockdown.

Join @m_banerji and me as we discuss our experience with telephonic survey rates during COVID #PAA2022 on April 7, 2:00 p.m. in the Flash Session on "Data Collection in Difficult Times: COVID-19 and Other Challenges" @PopAssocAmerica. 2/2
At the peak of the pandemic, telephonic surveys became the mainstay of data collection. The importance of telephones as modes of data collection is likely to grow in the coming years. But what determines response to telephonic surveys? 1/2

@m_banerji Weighted markers can be used in two way scatter plots.
scatter var1 var2 [w=var3]
in this case, var3 would be the sample size

Students and practitioners are particularly welcome. Our goal is to use these seminars to build a community of people interested in talking about data and data collection methodologies.
@SonaldeDesai, @Santanu_NDIC & I study the gendered impact on employment due to COVID-19 lockdown using a monthly panel data in Delhi NCR, and find that Women’s concentration in self-employment might be a reason behind their employment being somewhat protected.
