Summary: | Knowledge of the causes of measurement errors in business surveys is limited, even though such errors may compromise the accuracy of the micro data and economic indicators derived from them. This article, based on an empirical study with a focus from the business perspective, presents new research findings on the response process in business surveys. It proposes the Multidimensional Integral Business Survey Response (MIBSR) model as a tool for investigating the response process and explaining its outcomes, and as the foundation of any strategy dedicated to reducing and preventing measurement errors. // ABSTRACT IN FRENCH: La connaissance des causes des erreurs de mesure dans les enquêtes auprès des entreprises est limitée, même si ces erreurs peuvent compromettre l'exactitude des microdonnées et des indicateurs économiques qui en découlent. Le présent article, qui est fondé sur une étude empirique axée sur le point de vue des entreprises, présente de nouveaux résultats de recherche sur le processus de réponse aux enquêtes auprès des entreprises. Il propose le modèle multidimensionnel intégral de réponse aux enquêtes auprès des entreprises (MMIREE) comme outil pour examiner le processus de réponse et expliquer ses résultats, et comme base d'une stratégie visant à réduire et à prévenir les erreurs de mesure.
