ABSTRACT Three Canadian research studies which used similar sampling strategies are examined. Data on their survey experiences are presented so as to assist those planning research to do so more efficiently. The response and completion rates of the three studies were quite similar, suggesting that some predictions might be made for similarly-designed future studies. The findings may give heart to those wondering whether their response and refusal rates are adequate or embarassing. Detailed reporting of survey research sampling experiences and adoption of a uniform terminology is called for.
