The consequences of survey fatigue in epidemiological research are far-reaching:
Low Response Rates: Reduced participation can lead to smaller sample sizes, which may not be representative of the population. Incomplete Data: Respondents may skip questions or provide partial answers, compromising data quality. Bias: Survey fatigue can introduce bias if certain groups are less likely to complete surveys, leading to skewed results. Invalid Conclusions: Poor data quality can result in invalid conclusions and ineffective public health interventions.
