近年来，由于对人口活动模式及其与长期结果的关系的研究和政策兴趣增加，时间使用研究稳步增长。最近有兴趣超越传统纸质管理的时间日记，使用新的数据收集技术，以减轻答复者的负担和管理成本，并提高数据质量。本文介绍了两种新的日记工具，这两种工具被用于一项大规模的多学科队列研究，以获得关于英国青少年时间分配的信息。创建了网络管理的日记和智能手机应用程序，并遵循了混合模式的数据收集方法：要求队列成员在这两种模式中进行选择，向无法或拒绝使用网络/应用程序模式的人提供纸质日记。使用86名参与者的试点调查数据，我们检查了三种模式下的日记数据质量指标。结果表明，网络和APP模式产生的时间日记数据质量总体上好于纸质模式，具有完整活动和背景信息的日记所占比例更高。结果还显示，网络和APP模式产生的活动情节数与纸质模式相当。这些结果表明，新技术的使用可以提高日记数据的质量。未来使用更大样本的研究应该系统地调查混合模式时间利用调查设计中的选择和测量效果。
Recent years have witnessed a steady growth of time-use research, driven by the increased research and policy interest in population activity patterns and their associations with long-term outcomes. There is recent interest in moving beyond traditional paper-administered time diaries to use new technologies for data collection in order to reduce respondent burden and administration costs, and to improve data quality. This paper presents two novel diary instruments that were employed by a large-scale multi-disciplinary cohort study in order to obtain information on the time allocation of adolescents in the United Kingdom. A web-administered diary and a smartphone app were created, and a mixed-mode data collection approach was followed: cohort members were asked to choose between these two modes, and those who were unable or refused to use the web/app modes were offered a paper diary. Using data from a pilot survey of 86 participants, we examine diary data quality indicators across the three modes. Results suggest that the web and app modes yield an overall better time diary data quality than the paper mode, with a higher proportion of diaries with complete activity and contextual information. Results also show that the web and app modes yield a comparable number of activity episodes to the paper mode. These results suggest that the use of new technologies can improve diary data quality. Future research using larger samples should systematically investigate selection and measurement effects in mixed-mode time-use survey designs.
