本文探讨了如何使用基于网络的调查作为数据收集手段,对美国一个学区的 450 多名青少年进行数据收集,其中大约 50% 是少数族裔学生。在描述了研究背景后,我探讨了与数据收集的便利性、基于网络的格式的潜在挑战和前景以及收集的数据的数量和质量相关的问题。我证明收集的数据非常丰富,而且学生似乎更喜欢电子数据收集而不是面对面的采访。此外,使用这种数据收集策略可以克服与种族、阶级和职位相关的权力差异的固有问题。
This article explores the use of a web-based survey as a means of data collection with over 450 adolescents in an American school district with approximately 50 percent visible ethnic minority students. After describing the context of the study, I explore issues related to the ease of data collection, the potential challenges and promise of the web-based format, and the quantity and quality of data collected. I demonstrate that the data collected were extremely rich, and that students appeared to be more comfortable with the electronic data collection than with an in-person interview. Moreover, the inherent issues of power differential related to race, class, and position may be overcome using this strategy for data collection.
