Universidad de San Andrés. Departamento de Economía; Argentina. As the measurement of public opinion and attitudes toward gender issues has gained increasing attention in gender policy and research, the accurate design, implementation, and analysis of survey data has become paramount. This paper examines the impact of the gender of the interviewer on survey responses in Latin America and the Caribbean, both individually and in the aggregate, using data from the LAPOP surveys (2012- 2018). The empirical findings highlight the substantial influence of social norms on gender opinions, revealing that respondents are more likely to overestimate men's abilities in politics relative to women's and to accept domestic violence when interviewed by men rather than women. The paper then presents a formal model that illustrates how the gender of the interviewer may influence responses, from which an optimal adjustment in survey design and analysis can derived to address the introduced biases. Two key actions emerge as a corollary: survey firms should always provide the gender of the interviewer in their data, and researchers should adjust for this bias in their analysis. Without implementing these recommended practices, survey data may not accurately reflect what individuals in the region think about gender issues, potentially skewing public policy. 2024-04-30T15:40:25Z 2024-04-30T15:40:25Z 2023-11 Tesis info:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesis info:ar-repo/semantics/tesis de maestría info:eu-repo/semantics/updatedVersion Güizzo Altube, M.
