| Description | The Pre-Interview Blank, designed by Fred McKinney in 1960, is a historical document aimed at collecting comprehensive information about a respondent’s personality. It was created to improve the quality of subsequent interviews by providing a detailed picture of the respondent’s personal background. The instrument gathers data across several areas, including demographics, achievements, physical health, college activities, interests, attitudes, personal and family history, and religious background. This data helps ensure a more productive and accurate interview process. |
