Surveys02:16

Surveys

16.8K
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 Survey

9.1K
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...

Social Scripts

10.3K
People tend to know what behavior is expected of them in specific, familiar settings. A script is a person’s knowledge about the sequence of events expected in a specific setting (Schank & Abelson, 1977). Essentially, scripts are a particular kind of schema, one containing default values for the features within an event. In the restaurant example, the script's features include the props (e.g., tables, menu, food, and money), the roles to be played (e.g., customer and waiter),...

Introduction to Surveying, Plane Surveying and Geodetic Surveys

1.0K
Surveying is the art and science of mapping the earth's surface. It involves measuring distances, angles in horizontal or vertical directions, and levels to understand the shape and size of land features. Surveying techniques are essential for various tasks, such as identifying the levels of a land area with reference to a specific point, and mapping undulations and water bodies.There are two main types of surveying: plane surveys and geodetic surveys. Plane surveys assume the earth is flat,...

Social Traps01:41

Social Traps

26.9K
Social traps are negative situations where people get caught in a direction or relationship that later proves to be unpleasant, with no easy way to back out of or avoid. The concept was orignally introduced by John Platt who applied psychology to Garrett Hardin's "Tragedy of the Commons", where in New England herd owners could let their cattle graze in the common ground. This situation seems like a good idea, but an individual could have an advantage. If they owned...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Digital Health
  • Consumer Behavior Analysis

Background:

  • E-cigarette use is prevalent, necessitating diverse data sources for comprehensive understanding.
  • Social media platforms offer insights into user behaviors and preferences.
  • Data triangulation enhances the reliability of findings in public health research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify social media-active e-cigarette users.
  • To compare e-cigarette use patterns between survey and social media data.
  • To analyze e-cigarette future use intentions using combined datasets.

Main Methods:

  • Joint analysis of an online survey (n=5132) and social media data.
  • Analysis of online forum participation patterns from survey data.
  • Comparison of e-cigarette use patterns (brand, flavor, ratings, purchase) across datasets.
  • Logistic regression to model e-cigarette use intentions.

Main Results:

  • Male and younger users were more active in e-cigarette forums; active participants were "hardcore vapers."
  • E-cigarette use patterns showed consistency between survey and social media data.
  • Intention to use e-cigarettes correlated positively with e-liquid and flavor ratings.
  • Social media provided valuable user ratings for e-cigarette refill liquids.

Conclusions:

  • Social media data aligns with survey data for "hardcore vapers," suggesting its utility in studying e-cigarette behaviors.
  • Social media can complement traditional online survey research.
  • An innovative framework for social media data triangulation in public health was proposed.
  • Combined social media and survey data offer a rich resource for public health research.
