Bureau of Labor StatisticsAny opinions expressed in this paper are those of the authors and do not constitute policy of the Bureau of Labor Statistics
Background Cell phone only HH
Coverage issues for RDD surveys Weighting issues
NHIS estimates on cell only HH and adults in cell only HH
Blumberg, Brick, Keeter, Tucker, etc.
Consumer Expenditure Survey (CEIS) Tucker, Brick, Meekins 2004 http://www.bls.gov/cex/cellphones2007.htm

CEIS Data Sponsored by the Bureau of Labor Statistics
(BLS). Quarterly rotating panel survey of 5,000 to
8,000 per quarter (2,000 new cases). Large, nationally representative,
in-person/telephone Collects expenditure information
Telephone service Cigarettes, alcohol, health insurance
Data from 2000-2009 Cell only = respondent had cell phone bill and
no residential service in a given quarter3

Conclusions The number of cell-only HHs
continues to increase There is some evidence of a cohort
effect, as well as new entries Cell-only HHs have different
expenditure estimates Controlling for dems and
methodology Cell-only HHs exhibit different
response behavior 23
