Demographics and Ratio of Panel Composition

Taiwan has recently entered the 'aged society' era in 2018, where more than 10% of the population is aged 65 or older. According to the National Development Council, Taiwan will become a 'super-aged' society by 2026, with at least 20% of the population are aged 65 or older. Compared to the population composition, the ratio of panelists in the 50+ age range is small, therefore it may be difficult to collect the data from this age group. Response rate for older panelists is usually higher compared to other age groups but other factors such as location and time of sending survey must also be considered.
