A study in Germany showed that face-to-face interviews recorded less incidents of victimization as opposed to written (postal) surveys. Reports also document rather unpredictable effects. When a switch was made from face-to-face interviewing to CATI [Computer Assisted Telephone Interview] in the international crime victim survey carried out in Spain and Northern Ireland in 2005, the results showed a substantial decrease of victimization rates in Spain and an equally substantial increase in Northern Ireland. There is little way of knowing whether and to what extent the new interview mode has affected these changes
