背景资料:电子平台调查是青少年群体自我管理的理想选择,因为几乎所有美国青少年都报告使用或能够使用智能手机。这些精通技术的人似乎准备从纸质调查中毕业。尽管使用智能手机进行数据收集的预测优势,有一个令人惊讶的缺乏数据关于使用这种模式的青少年人口的物质使用趋势的监测Objectives.Objectives:本研究的目的是评估完成率,时间,和高中学生的反应采取中学生生活调查:内华达州(SSLS:NV)在他们自己的个人智能手机相比,提供的计算机或平板电脑。NV是一项基于网络的调查,旨在评估青少年的信念,态度和使用趋势周围的物质使用。2016年12月,SSLS:NV通过自我选择的设备(个人vs.提供)在一个班级内向大约1000名9 - 12年级学生进行自我管理。收集并分析数据,以比较计算机、平板电脑或智能手机的结果。统计分析在SPSS 23.0中进行,分类数据采用χ 2或Fisher精确检验,连续数据采用单因素方差分析。智能手机的完成率为86%,平板电脑为94%,电脑为95%(p< .001),而对终生使用药物的反应在所有组中相似。结论/重要性:目前的研究提供了概念证明,即个人智能手机可以在相对较短的时间内有效实现更全面的青少年物质使用监测,同时保持稳健的响应率。
Background: Electronic platform surveys are ideal for self-administration in adolescent populations, as nearly all adolescents in the US report using or having access to smartphones. This technology-savvy population seems prepared to graduate away from paper surveys. Despite predicted advantages of using smartphones for data collection, there is a surprising lack of data regarding the use of this mode for surveillance of substance use trends among adolescent populations.Objectives: The objective of this study was to evaluate completion rates, times, and responses of high school students taking the Secondary Student Life Survey: Nevada (SSLS:NV) on their own personal smartphones compared to provided computers or tablets.Methods:The SSLS:NV is a web-based survey designed to assess adolescent beliefs, attitudes, and use-trends surrounding substance use. The SSLS:NV was self-administeredviaself-selected device (personal vs. provided) within one class period to approximately one thousand 9th–12th grade students in December 2016. Data was collected and analyzed to compare outcomes by computer, tablet, or smartphone. Statistical analysis was performed in SPSS 23.0 using χ2or Fisher’s exact test for categorical data and one-way ANOVA for continuous data.Results: SSLS:NV completion times averaged 21 min overall (p= .193). Differences were seen with completion rates of 86% smartphone 94% tablet, and 95% computer (p< .001), while responses to lifetime substance use were similar across all groups.Conclusions/Importance: The current study provides proof of concept that personal smartphones are effective in achieving more comprehensive adolescent substance use surveillance within a relatively short amount of time, while retaining robust response rates.
