Experimentelle Studie zur Methode der Onlinebefragung (ESMO)

Eine randomisiert kontrollierte Untersuchung unter Studierenden in Deutschland

Projektbeginn: 01.08.2017 - Projektende: 31.12.2018

In der Hochschul- und Wissenschaftsforschung werden typischerweise junge und gut ausgebildete Personen, wie Studierende, Absolvent(inn)en, Promovierende und Wissenschaftler(innen) befragt. Sie alle gelten als intensive Computer- und Internetnutzer(innen) und wären deshalb gut mit einer online applizierten Befragung zu erreichen. Diese Methode der Datenerhebung erfährt somit zunehmende Bedeutung. Auch die langjährigen DZHW-Befragungsreihen werden sukzessive auf Onlinebefragungen umgestellt. Dies führt zu einer Reihe von methodologischen Fragen (z. B. zu potenziellen Mode-Effekte durch den Befragungskanal, zum Design für komplexe Fragetypen, zur Nutzung von Paradaten und der Formulierung entsprechender Einwilligungserklärungen), die es im Rahmen dieses Projektes zu untersuchen gilt.

Abstract

Paradata, such as user agent strings (UAS), provide us with important client-side information about the technical conditions of web surveys. If due to different reasons for example data protection issues UAS are not available, one may directly ask survey participants for the required data. Until now it is unclear whether the validity of these self-reported paradata is determined by participants' general attitudes towards surveys, their willingness to participate and - in connection with technically demanding questions - distraction while answering.
To shed light into the question what predicts the consistency between UAS and self-reported paradata, we use the HISBUS Online Access Panel. The sample comprised 3.137 members with UAS...

Abstract

Switching from paper questionnaires to online surveys presents massive methodological challenges. To date, little is known about how these surveys have to be designed in order to achieve the highest possible data quality and to continue existing time series. Therefore, an Experimental Study on the Methodology of Online Surveys (ESMO 1) will be carried out in 2017. About 25,000 participants of a randomly recruited online access panel of German students are invited. They are randomly assigned to various conditions of eight scenarios assumed to influence response behavior. At the conference we will present the complete RCT design and initial results
