Data Collection by Survey

6.6K
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:

  • Social network analysis
  • Epidemiology
  • Public health research

Background:

  • Understanding health behavior and disease transmission relies heavily on social influence and contact networks.
  • Traditional software tools often lack optimization for capturing personal network data, posing measurement challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce Network Canvas, an end-to-end software solution designed to streamline the process of collecting social and contact network data.
  • To provide researchers with intuitive interfaces for designing and conducting network interviews.

Main Methods:

  • Network Canvas comprises three applications: Architect, Interviewer, and Server, all developed in JavaScript.
  • The software is compatible with Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS.

Main Results:

  • Network Canvas significantly reduces the complexity and technical expertise needed for network data collection.
  • The tool offers a user-friendly, point-and-click interface for efficient data gathering.

Conclusions:

  • Network Canvas is a valuable, open-source resource for researchers in epidemiology and public health.
  • Its design facilitates the measurement of contact and social influence networks, aiding in the study of disease spread.
