Internet Data Collection Instrument Screen Capture Guide

How to Use This Guide

This document contains copies of screens respondents will see in the ACS Internet Questionnaire. You can use this guide as a reference when talking to respondents.

On the next page, you will see a table of contents that contains links rather than page numbers. Because you will be using this guide on your computer, this format will allow you to use Ctrl + Click on a page name and navigate directly to that page. Most of the screen capture names are the same as the page names in the instrument. Respondents can provide the page names to you from the URL in the address bar of their browsers. For example, the question for the type of unit at the sample address (e.g., mobile home, single family home detached from any other homes, etc.) is “typeofunit” in the Internet questionnaire. If respondents are on this screen, the address bar will display, “https://respond.census.gov/acs/typeofunit.”

Some screens may change text and appearance depending on the situation or makeup of the household. For example, the “pselect” screen asks respondents to choose the person for whom they will answer questions next. If only one person remains on the roster, the text displays differently than if multiple names are available. A second screen capture for the “pselect” screen reads “pselect (one person left on roster).”
