The issue of data quality in economic practice – challenges and available tools
Original language description
The paper deals with the issue of the quality of economic data in the context of managerial decision support. It summarizes some of the frequently used data quality criteria and suggests possible new ones. The context of self-report data sources (such as surveys and questionnaires, interviews and focus groups) is taken into account and measures of confidence of the provided information, level of error, level of appropriateness of the data collection instrument and other possible measures of distortions of data are discussed. The paper adopts the data-user perspective on the quality of data while abstracting from the more technical information- systems requirements usually placed on data sets and information systems. The paper also briefly discusses the use of data quality measures in theory building and decision support – more specifically in the design and validation of decision support models and in the investigation of the validity of assumptions or hypotheses based on the data available.
