The District of Columbia Respondent Description Sheet is a document that provides a comprehensive description of an individual being interviewed or surveyed for research purposes. It contains demographic information, such as age, ethnicity, gender, and residency status, as well as background information, such as educational level, employment status, and income. The District of Columbia Respondent Description Sheet also includes space for any additional information the respondent wishes to share. There are two types of District of Columbia Respondent Description Sheets: one for surveys and the other for interviews. The survey sheet includes a series of questions that focus on the individual's opinions, attitudes, and experiences. The interview sheet includes more open-ended questions that allow the researcher to explore the respondent's thoughts and feelings in greater detail.
