Interviewer bias occurs when the interviewer's characteristics or behavior influence the respondents' answers. This could involve leading questions, subtle cues, or different treatment of different respondents. Minimization strategies include interviewer training, standardized questioning techniques, and using computer-assisted interviewing (CAI).
