27 Summary Decrease in stigma attitudes and inaccurate knowledge What were possible causes of these differences? Panel lost members with lower stigma attitudes and more accurate knowledge Non-respondents to T2 were more likely to have higher stigma attitudes and more inaccurate knowledge End result may be that the panel attrition from T1 and T2 and the non-response effects may cancel each other out Respondents at both T1 and T2 showed continued decrease in stigma attitudes and increase in accurate knowledge Younger, Black, those with some college, highest income more likely to drop out of panel

28 Conclusion/Future Directions Results suggest: Longitudinal panels can be used for web surveys With caveats - Panel should be replenished on a regular basis Rolling Panel Improve retention methods Improve invitation methods to get representative results
