网络调查允许注册大量参数，这些参数描述了受访者如何填写网络调查问卷。本研究将客户端参数引入网络调查领域，与网络调查中常用的服务器端参数相比，客户端参数提供了更详细的过程描述。在本文中，作者介绍了网络调查收集客户端参数所需的软件，并通过复制 Bassili 和 Fletcher 关于响应延迟和态度稳定性的研究来证明其实际相关性。该研究成功地复制了巴西利和弗莱彻研究的结果，并表明态度不太稳定的受访者需要更多时间来回答态度问题。此外，本研究还报告了对知识问题的响应延迟的发现，并调查了改变知识和意见问题的答案的意义。
Web surveys allow the registration of numerous paradata, which describe how respondents fill in web questionnaires. This study introduces client-side paradata into the field of web surveys, which provide a more detailed description of the process than server-side paradata commonly used in web surveys. In the article, the author presents the software needed to enable web surveys to collect client-side paradata and demonstrates its practical relevance by replicating a study by Bassili and Fletcher on response latencies and attitude stability. The study successfully replicates the findings from the Bassili and Fletcher study and shows that respondents with less stable attitudes need more time to respond to an attitudinal question. Moreover, this study also reports findings on response latencies to knowledge questions and investigates the meaning of changing answers to knowledge and opinion questions.
