CfP ESRA 2025: Teaching Survey Methodology – Challenges and New Approaches with links
by Drasch, Katrin 29 Nov '24

29 Nov '24

Dear Colleagues, maybe some of you are also involvend with teaching survey methodology and could benefit from participating at the 11th conference of the European Survey Research Association (ESRA) (https://www.europeansurveyresearch.org/conference/utrecht-2025/call-for-abs…), which takes place at Utrecht University, The Netherlands, from July 14 to July 18, 2025. The session "Teaching Survey Methodology – Challenges and New Approaches" (https://www.europeansurveyresearch.org/conf2025/sessions.php?sess=79) is organized by me (Katrin Drasch, FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg) but I hope that there are some of you somewhere who are in a similar situation/position and we can share some experiences. Please submit your abstract (max. 300 words) via the ESRA conference management system by December 20, 2024. Session Details Many higher education curricula involve survey data collection by students, aiming to teach a complete empirical research circle from formulating a research question to finding a preliminary empirical answer. This approach is often justified because it constitutes a crucial skill for future careers in both academic and non-academic environments. However, over the past two decades, data collection has increasingly shifted from written or oral/telephone interviews to more complex methods like online surveys, longitudinal studies, and alternative data sources, making it increasingly challenging to teach survey methodology in its entirety. Current curricula often face two major issues: first, the limited time available for empirical research projects, typically a maximum of two academic terms, often necessitates shortcuts, such as skipping cognitive pretesting, to complete data analysis on time. Second, there is often little financial support for material expenses (e.g., postal charges, printing questionnaires) or technical resources (e.g., access to sampling frames). This can lead to the misinterpretation of results, such as treating non-probability snowball sampling as representative. As a result, self-collected data often suffer from quality issues and are thus not suitable for scientific publications. This session aims to discuss these challenges and explore new approaches to collecting scientifically valuable data in a teaching environment. For instance, experimental designs (e.g., factorial surveys or choice experiments) that do not require large or representative samples could be considered. Additionally, incorporating AI tools into survey methodology instruction, such as using them to generate and pretest questionnaires, could provide new opportunities. Alternative data sources (e.g., social media data or anonymized university records) and collaborations with external (non-academic) partners, along with the challenges they pose (e.g., data protection and exchange), could also be explored. These and other alternative and/or innovative topics are welcome to this session. I am looking forward to your submissions. Please feel free to forward this call within your networks! Best regards Katrin Drasch -- Dr. Katrin Drasch, Akademische Oberrätin (LfbA) Institut für Soziologie Kochstraße 4 91054 Erlangen

CfP ESRA Session on Climate Change and the Environment
by Henning Best 28 Nov '24

28 Nov '24

Dear colleagues, We are pleased to invite submissions for our session “Current Methodological Challenges and Applications in Environmental and Climate Research” at the European Survey Research Association (ESRA) 2025 conference at the Utrecht University, The Netherlands, from July 14 to July 18, 2025. Session Focus: Climate change and the depletion of natural resources are critical global challenges requiring innovative policies and societal action. To understand public perceptions, environmental behaviors, and policy support, robust data and methodologies are essential. Our session will explore how survey research can advance knowledge in this field, with a focus on addressing key methodological challenges. We welcome contributions that focus on one of these topics. • Measuring environmental behavior and household carbon footprints, addressing biases (e.g., self-reporting, social desirability). • Investigating public opinion, policy acceptance, and climate skepticism while managing response biases and privacy concerns. • Employing survey experiments to evaluate policy perceptions under uncertainty and complexity. • Integrating survey data with novel data sources (e.g., geospatial data, sensor data, administrative data) to consider context effects and enhance data quality. • Addressing sample-selection and the under-representation of far-right supporters and climate sceptics. Submission Details Abstracts should include a clear description of the research question, methodology, and relevance to the session's theme. • Abstract: max. 300 Words • Submission Deadline: 20th December 2024 • Submission Portal: ESRA conference management system www.europeansurveyresearch.org/call-for-esra25-abstracts-now-open/ For questions or further information, please feel free to contact us. We look forward to receiving your submissions and to engaging discussions at ESRA 2025! Henning Best, Christiane Bozoyan, Manuela Schmidt, Claudia Schmiedeberg

Call for Papers 6th MASS Workshop (Mobile Apps and Sensors in Surveys)
by Florian Keusch 22 Nov '24

22 Nov '24

/Call for Papers/ 6th MASS Workshop Mobile Apps and Sensors in Surveys _https://massworkshop.org <https://massworkshop.org>_ Date 4-5 June 2025 Location London School of Economics (LSE), London, UK Organizing committee Local organizers: Patrick Sturgis (London School of Economics), Oriol Bosch (Oxford University) Scientific committee: Bella Struminskaya (Utrecht University), Peter Lugtig (Utrecht University), Florian Keusch (University of Mannheim), and Jan Karem Höhne (DZHW, Leibniz University Hannover) Context of the workshop Mobile devices allow researchers to collect data through built-in sensors, such as GPS, accelerometers, and other sensors, passively collect data in-browser, and use apps in addition to self-reports. Passive mobile data collection can potentially decrease measurement errors and reduce respondent burden. Active data collection using apps, camera, microphone, and other sensors allows researchers to broaden the research questions they want to study. Incorporating new measurements to augment or replace survey questions through sensors and apps brings challenges for representativeness, survey design and implementation, and measurement. This also includes ethical and legal considerations that are yet to be understood. The goal of this workshop is to bring together around 40 researchers from different disciplines to discuss the current state of their work on the use of mobile apps and sensors in survey data collection. The workshop is only open to participants whose abstracts will be accepted for a paper presentation. Upon acceptance participants are expected to submit a handout (max. of 5 pages). The workshop is free of charge for participants, but participants are expected to cover their own travel and lodging costs. The program, selected presentations and keynotes from five earlier MASS workshops can be found at _https://massworkshop.org <https://massworkshop.org>_. Scope of the workshop For the sixth MASS workshop, we invite contributions that focus, among others, on the following methodological issues when using mobile apps, sensors, and wearables in surveys: * Technical aspects of mobile apps and sensors o Different ways to collect sensor data o Building apps for Android and iOS o Data processing and storage * Study and app design o Look and feel of apps o Usability studies o Use of incentives o Giving feedback to respondents * Implementation o Willingness to participate and informed consent o Methods to invite and communicate with study participants o Study length and study intensity o Legal considerations o Ethical and privacy considerations * Quality of sensor data o Errors of non-representation (e.g., self-selection, coverage, and nonparticipation) o Measurement error (e.g., prevention, modeling, and correction) * Data analysis o Analyzing sensor data (e.g., through machine and deep learning) o Combining survey, sensor, and app data We encourage submission of work in progress and are particularly interested in studies that use experimental designs to test strategies to collect data from mobile apps, sensors, and wearables. We are open to both empirical studies as well as descriptions of research data collection and infrastructure (e.g., front- or backend of an app) and processing of data from apps and sensors. Submission process and timeline Please submit your abstract (max. 500 words) for the workshop to _massworkshop(a)zohomail.eu <mailto:massworkshop@zohomail.eu>_. The abstract should contain a research question, data collection procedures/the description of the app, and results (if available). If results are not available yet, the abstract should outline the type of analyses that will be presented at the workshop and whether data collection took place already. Participation in the workshop is only possible when an abstract is accepted for the workshop. We intend to keep the workshop limited to about 40 participants. Timeline: * 22 January 2025: Deadline for abstract submission. * 14 February 2025: Feedback on acceptance will be provided. * 20 May 2025: Deadline for handout submission - all participants will be required to submit a 5-page handout presenting context, screenshots, tables, or other supporting materials for the workshop. All participants are expected to read all handouts before coming to the workshop. * 4 June 2025: Start of MASS Workshop -- Florian Keusch Professor of Social Data Science and Methodology University of Mannheim School of Social Sciences Professorship for Social Data Science and Methodology | A5, 6 | 68131 Mannheim Germany Phone: +49 (0)621 181-3214 E-mail:f.keusch@uni-mannheim.de
