Computer-assisted telephone interview (CATI) is provided by the interviewer, this script is a software application is conducted by telephone survey methods. Micro-data collection and speed of editing and about the importance of timely and accurate data to allow the interviewer to call micro-structural systems of data collection is to educate the respondent.

Computer-assisted telephone interview system to effect an example that uses the response distribution, interviewer's behavior, and other errors randomly assigned to one of the paper or measured through the case of CATI version of the survey is used. The case of CATI interviewers distributed two modes of result, among at least some evidence, but the response we received from the way it makes very little difference between the reaction rate distributions has been a slight difference.

Functions of CATI Computer Assisted Telephone Interview.
