智能手机的普及率不断上升，现在研究人员有机会通过应用程序被动收集移动的数据，从智能手机用户那里收集数据。被动收集的数据包括地理位置、物理移动、在线行为和浏览器历史记录以及应用程序使用情况。然而，要从智能手机被动收集数据，参与者需要同意将研究应用程序下载到他们的智能手机上。这导致了对不同意和不参与的担忧。在目前的研究中，我们评估的情况下，智能手机用户愿意参与被动的移动的数据收集。我们调查了德国非概率在线小组的1，947名成员，他们拥有智能手机，使用描述假设研究的小插曲，其中数据由参与者智能手机上的研究应用程序自动收集。这些小插曲改变了假设研究的几个维度的水平，受访者被要求评价他们参与这样一项研究的意愿。参与被动移动的数据收集的意愿受到承诺的研究参与激励的强烈影响，但也受到其他研究特征（申办者、数据收集期的持续时间、关闭应用程序的选项）以及受访者特征（隐私和安全问题、智能手机体验）的强烈影响。
The rising penetration of smartphones now gives researchers the chance to collect data from smartphone users through passive mobile data collection via apps. Examples of passively collected data include geolocation, physical movements, online behavior and browser history, and app usage. However, to passively collect data from smartphones, participants need to agree to download a research app to their smartphone. This leads to concerns about nonconsent and nonparticipation. In the current study, we assess the circumstances under which smartphone users are willing to participate in passive mobile data collection. We surveyed 1,947 members of a German nonprobability online panel who own a smartphone using vignettes that described hypothetical studies where data are automatically collected by a research app on a participant's smartphone. The vignettes varied the levels of several dimensions of the hypothetical study, and respondents were asked to rate their willingness to participate in such a study. Willingness to participate in passive mobile data collection is strongly influenced by the incentive promised for study participation but also by other study characteristics (sponsor, duration of data collection period, option to switch off the app) as well as respondent characteristics (privacy and security concerns, smartphone experience).
