Survey mode, survey technology and technology innovations in data collection (A09)

移动的设备，特别是智能手机的迅速普及，现在为社会科学调查数据收集提供了新的机会，因为人们现在能够回答调查问题，而不需要共享稀缺的时间资源或地点限制。虽然答复者参与调查的灵活性增加可对数据质量产生积极影响，但使用移动的设备收集数据也可能带来答复行为改变的风险。本研究提案侧重于分析移动的设备的使用沿着不同的维度，如数据质量，调查成本，人口的可用性和响应行为在几个人群（包括欧洲，美国以及发展中国家）。我们结合联合收割机不同的社会科学研究，在纵向设置连接调查方法，计量经济学，行为经济学和卫生经济学。该项目将为一般数据收集程序提供未来的途径，并对改善数据质量和提供信息和治疗以影响受访者行为产生影响。

The fast spread of mobile devices, in particular smartphones, now provides new opportunities for survey data collection in the social sciences, as people are now able to respond to survey questions without sharing scarce time resources or location restrictions. While the increased flexibility of respondent’s participating in surveys can have positive effects on data quality data collection using mobile devices may also bear the risk of changes in response behavior. This research proposal focuses on analyzing the use of mobile devices along different dimensions such as data quality, survey costs, the availability of populations and response behavior across several populations (including Europe, USA as well as developing countries). We combine different strands of social science research, connecting Survey Methodology, Econometrics, Behavioral Economics and Health Economics in longitudinal settings. The project will provide future avenues for general data collection procedures and has implications for improvements in data quality and the provision of information and treatments to influence respondent behavior.
