The growing number of mobile-only households across Europe and in Northern America is at present one of the key challenges for survey research. So far, frames for telephone survey sampling include only landline phone numbers. But in future landline phone surveys and mobile phone surveys will have to be combined. However, at present there are a lot of practical questions unsolved. In this paper we want to present some findings of a recent research project where we recruited individuals for an experimental mobile phone panel. Our main objective was to study their response behavior. In the first chapter we explain the motivation for our research. Then we describe the fieldwork of our study in detail to show which efforts are necessary to conduct a mobile phone survey. In the third chapter we show some findings on the response behavior of the panelists. Finally, we give an outlook on future telephone surveys where the dual frame approach will become the usual method.

The article offers solution for weighting data which have been causing a recurring difficulty in all researches on social mobility: The data refering to the fathers of the surveyed person of the representative sample of a particular generational survey is not representative with regard to the father's generation, because the chance that fathers who had more than one child are more often remembered is higher than in case of those who had only one single child. (weight=1 (the number of borthers/sisters of the surveyed person+1) ) The present experiment confirms that : 1. relying on the method of weighting one can obtain more insight into the generation of fathers than without this method, 2. the mobility toward the group of the Hungarian basic, as well as toward the group of the higher educational system is siginificantly higher than previously assumed.
