Explanation:
Primeri na engleskom:

"Pilot Studies, normally conducted in the 'off-years' when there is no national election. These studies are designed to test new, or refine existing, instrumentation and study designs, all in order to improve the Time Series Studies."
http://www.electionstudies.org/overview/overview.htm

"Off-years may also feature a number of special elections to fill vacancies in various federal, state and local offices."

Prevod zaista zavisi od šireg konteksta, ali za sada, pojmove koje nalazim vezane za istraživanja imaju uvek skoro istovetno znacenje.

"Off-years" se najčešće preuzima iz značenja termina "off-years elections", koji se održavaju svake neparne godine.
...
"Off-year elections refer to general elections in the United States that are held in odd-numbered years."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-year_election

U sledecem slucaju "off-years" se koristi kao "svake druge (neparne) godine" - period opet preuzet iz pojma odražavanja izbora.
....
"The survey is conducted every other year by our firm. In off years, we survey the marketing done by contingent fee practices."
