Response Rate
We contacted 30 companies and 17 answered. Out of these five were interested in assisting us in our dissertation. Further, four companies responded that they could participate in an interview, but not within our time frame. The result was that five out of 30 companies participated.
The total response rate was 17 %. The number of responses (5) was divided with the total number in sample (30) minus ineligible (0), which not met our research requirements. This sums up to the total response rate of 17 %. The active response rate was 29 %. The number of responses (5) was divided with the total number in sample minus (ineligible plus unreachable, which is the companies that did not respond at all). This adds up to the active response rate of 29 %.
