Holding reinforcement rate constant for the first component while decreasing reinforcement rate for the second component typically results in increased
response rates during the first component, even though reinforcement rates during the first component has not changed.
A total of 1,884 usable surveys were returned for an overall
response rate of 8.0%.

Response Rate for Measuring a Survey's Realization Rate of the Target Population." Public Opinion Quarterly 75 (1): 89-98.
It can be seen that the forced response design corresponds with a linear transformation of the
response rate. This linear transformation function, [DELTA](.), operates on the individual
response rate of the true responses.
This commentary outlines the different methods used to collect AEFI data in school immunization campaigns and the resultant
response rate. As students do not display a willingness to participate in research, an in-class survey would likely maximize
response rate.
In the 26 schools using the child-focused protocol, 5250 students returned a complete and usable questionnaire, yielding an adjusted
response rate of 76.9% (Table 3).

Anecdotally, anaesthesia audits, particularly departmental audits relying on self-reporting, have low
response rates. There is, however, little published information on this.
Sustained virologic
response rates were consistently lower among patients who did not have rapid responses than among those who did.
The study, including 143 patients, is large enough to give meaningful results on toxicity and on efficacy, at least regarding
response rates. Neutropenia and diarrhoea appeared to be more pronounced in patients receiving the irinotecan combination; patients in the oxaliplatin arm experienced the typical oxaliplatin-associated neurotoxicity.
For patients taking SSRIs, the
response rate was 69% in those with 5-HTT intron variation, far greater than the 9%
response rate in patients with other 5-HTT genotypes, Dr.
