Surveys

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.
Data Collection by Survey01:07

Data Collection by Survey

The systematic method of obtaining and analyzing accurate information of a population is called data collection. A survey is a standard method of data collection that involves collecting information from a target human population about their experience, opinion, or knowledge of a product, service, or process. The responses are recorded and interpreted. The most common survey examples are written questionnaires, face-to-face or telephonic conversations, focus groups, and electronic (e-mail or...

Area of Science:

  • Scientific instrumentation
  • University research infrastructure
  • Facility management

Background:

  • Multi-user facilities are crucial university resources.
  • A 2010 survey assessed their characteristics and challenges.
  • Responses were gathered from 36 facilities with an average 20-year operational history.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify success factors for multi-user facilities.
  • To pinpoint significant operational and financial problems.
  • To understand trends in university support and funding strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Survey distributed to over 300 individuals involved in multi-user facilities.
  • Analysis of responses from 36 facilities.
  • Data collection on facility affiliation, success factors, and challenges.

Main Results:

  • Key success factors include professional staff, university funding, broad clientele, training, and leadership.
  • Major problems involve insufficient university financial support, cost recovery issues, equipment maintenance, staff retention, and user misconduct.
  • A trend of decreased university support and increased reliance on external income and grants was observed.

Conclusions:

  • University multi-user facilities require sustained financial commitment and strategic management.
  • Addressing challenges in funding, staffing, and user conduct is essential for operational viability.
  • Adapting to reduced institutional support necessitates exploring diverse income streams and external funding opportunities.
