#request - does anyone know of any panel services that are affordable? I need some survey participants (200 would be lovely) and quick, because of [swear words while thinking of why]. I'm looking into #mechanicalturk but I don't know if I can get this to happen quickly enough; I have one week.

I need young adults, English speaking (native fluency). North American would be fine, but European is great, too. Maybe near East (e.g., India, Pakistan) if the language fluency is there. Region/nation is less important than the age range and the language ability.

I'd be paying for this out of pocket, and I don't have much money, so hoping I can find inexpensive services somewhere (<<$500 USD? Maybe closer to $200? realizing this might not be possible because I've never looked into this until now). Qualtrics has panels but they're far too expensive for me. I'm googling, but asking here first.

Matthias Roth (@rothm) and I published a new paper on survey data harmonization.

"One harmonization fits all? – Impact of missing population invariance on harmonization error when harmonizing social science survey questions with equating"

The paper again corroborates that observed score equating outperforms linear stretching on average. However, it also shows that it is better to derive a harmonization solution for single-item measures from a sample that is drawn from a similar population to the population you are interested in researching.

doi.org/10.1080/13645579.2025.

A figure from the liked paper showing its central finding. Observed score equating on average outperforms linear stretching, but the potential bias of observed score equating gets higher the more dissimilar the samples for equating are from the sample that the resulting recoding table is used on.

#Microsoft's viral paper about *correlations* between #AI use and #criticalThinking also has "impact" in the title (despite admitting "Our analysis does not establish #causation"). 🤦‍♂️

#Confidence in #GenAI predicted LESS critical thinking.

SELF-confidence predicted MORE critical thinking.

📊 New research finds minimal evidence that using a smartphone for surveys leads to lower data quality. Regardless of device, respondents provided consistent results.

In a new paper, I simulate the consequences of combining survey data without proper harmonization techniques.

I demonstrate that there is a plausible risk of biased correlative analyses based on the integrated data, if we do not harmonize measurement units across different survey sources and instruments first.

A figure from the paper showing simulation results. The x-Axis measures how large the difference in measurement units is for the survey variables formed from two survey data sources. They y-axis shows the possible bias for correlative analyses using such integrated variables. The result is t hat as the measurement unit problem increases, the potential for biased correlation also increases.

Recently, I've been exploring the nonprobsvy package (ncn-foreigners.github.io/nonpr) in R and am curious if anyone has experience working with it, particularly in combining probability and non-probability samples. I'd love to hear your insights or recommendations! #rstats #SurveyResearch #DataScience

People designing questionnaires for a German sample will find the just published new version of the "Demographische Standards" helpful. It offers guidance on how to collect varios socio-demographic variables (e.g., education, citizenship, employment) in a comprehensive manner.

Together with Cornelia Neuert and Tenko Raykov, I looked into "Assessing conceptual comparability of single-item survey instruments with a mixed-methods approach".
Innovations are using a confirmatory factor analysis on a collection of single item instruments and comparing it with qualitative findings from probing questions.

To illustrate the approach, we assessed the comparability of social (dis-)trust questions.

Well, @#$%. I'm going to have to learn some serious JSON skills (I'll try to use R packages to make it easier) to create #surveys in #Qualtrics from text files of hundreds of items.

I wish there was an easier way, I really do. Qualtrics is already a pretty amazing platform, so it feels greedy to want this, too, but I do want it.

Once again, $@#%.

@pgmj packages such as (link.springer.com/book/10.1007) and other such infrastructure have moved the field on the side.

But there is no way to integrate them into the systems I have been using so far to collect for example online with.

Another hurdle:
The field of being disconnected from Theory and related test developments. Something I re-visit each time I deliver training to deliver tests, items, interviews.

@gavintlbrown Thanks for making me aware. There are a number of good applications, especially in mental health and research.

I think the problem lies more with what @pgmj points out in their response to this:
The lack of availability of tools/ systems to implement and collect data in this manner. And especially in Europe: to be able to tailor them to the specific security requirements.

Now if only we could get this energy to validate survey instruments on diverse populations. As a paraplegic, if I run into “lawn mowing” as a proxy for vigorous activity one more time in QOL surveys, I might have to hide a rotten watermelon under the PIs porch. #DEI #inclusion #IDEA #garbageingarbageout #researchtools #validatedsurveys #surveyresearch
