slugThe Soundness of Surveys: Offline and Online

Abstract

the Internet can be an efficient medium for the relocation, exchange, and collection of information in psychologyrelated research and data. The qualified simplicity and inexpensiveness of creating and maintaining Web-based applications, connected with the ease of use via the graphic-user boundary format of form-based surveys, can found a new research boundary for the social and behavioural sciences. From the seventies on, phone interviews became a popular alternative, thanks to the near universal acceptance of the telephone. And now, as the internet is ever more everywhere, web-surveys are attractive an interesting option as well. Online surveys are usually careful cheaper, faster, and more suitable. To survey the possible use of Internet tools in psychological research, this study compared Web-based assessment techniques with traditional paper based methods of different method of Internet attitudes and behaviours. It was establish that, though treatment remains a threat to online surveys for now, lack of a sampling frame is a more basic problem for e-mail and websurveys. Another important problem, and one that seems to be growing, is the low response-rate for online and phone surveys, particularly where caused by crowding out effects. Then for delivery, while access control is often cited as a problem for web surveys, there is a technological solution available that works up to the address level (beyond which mail-surveys have similar problems).
