Our online series "Meet the Experts" starts the new year with a new season on "Knowledge technologies for the Social Sciences: Access to Social Science Data and Services"!
We start by investigating social scientists' information-seeking behavior and data needs, which form the basis for suitable search infrastructures and knowledge graphs to make social science data and information findable, accessible, and reusable. Building on this, we show what opportunities and challenges emerge from the adoption of technological advances in the social sciences, such as large language models and novel data sources mined from the Web. We will conclude with a presentation on the automatic extraction of scientific information from scholarly texts, which helps to improve search and understanding of research information and their dependencies.
Here are the dates of the one-hour online talks (on Thursdays, 1-2 pm):
· 18.01.2024: Understanding the information-seeking behavior of social scientists (Dr. Dagmar Kern)
· 15.02.2024: Five ways to turn your dataset into click bait (Dr. Brigitte Mathiak)
· 14.03.2024: Searching the social sciences with GESIS Search (Dr. Daniel Hienert)
· 11.04.2024: How knowledge graphs can help you to share research data and information (Dr. Benjamin Zapilko & Debanjali Biswas)
· 16.05.2024: Opportunities and challenges of Large Language Models for the social sciences (Dr. Dimitar Dimitrov & Dr. Hajira Jabeen)
· 13.06.2024: Preserving and analysing large-scale Twitter data (Dr. Dimitar Dimitrov)
· 11.07.2024: Introduction to scholarly information extraction (Wolfgang Otto, Dr. Lu Gan, Dr. Saurav Karmakar, & Dr. Philipp Mayr)
After the presentation, our experts will be available for further discussion and to answer questions.
You can find the registration and further information about the talks here: https://www.gesis.org/en/services/sharing-knowledge/meet-the-experts
We are looking forward to seeing you at the talks!

Werte Kolleginnen und Kollegen,

Studying immigrants using the ESS: Methodological challenges, empirical consequences, ESS Conference 2024 in Lisbon
Since its release, scholars from various disciplines all around the world use the ESS as source for research on persons with immigrant background. An important reason for its popularity among immigrant researchers is its bi-annual repetition and the regular participation of many Western European countries that both allow to combine data of several rounds and/or countries, resulting in a decent number of respondents with immigrant background. This circumvents the problem of small numbers that researchers usually face when using population survey data for studying immigrants. Moreover, its broad range of questions on (political) attitudes and behaviour is extra-ordinary for a multi-themed population survey, making the ESS often the only data source for studying these topics on immigrants or groups that mainly are of immigrant background, such as Muslims.
At the same time, there are reasons for reservations regarding its authoritative use on immigrants. Although the ESS displays a strong awareness for the need of research on immigrants by including items that enable their identification among respondents, it is not an immigrant survey. There is no specific sampling strategy for immigrant groups, and the questionnaire is only presented in a limited set of languages- a major obstacle for the participation of new immigrants or of immigrants with little knowledge of these languages. For this reason, non-response among immigrants is probably higher than among other population groups and not at random, which is considered a severe challenge to obtain unbiased results.
Although these and other sources for potential biases are well known among scholars, they have been neither systematically investigated nor frequently addressed in publications using the ESS. Among the open questions are: how biased is immigrant data really, and to what extent are substantial results affected by this? How can we take this into account in our analyses and when interpreting the results?
We encourage contributions with methodological focus (with or without comparative approach) that, e.g.,
* take stock of the descriptive representation of immigrants in the ESS
* assess whether bias in descriptive representation leads to bias in the substantive results on attitudes and behaviour
* appraise how the transition to a self-completion survey aggravates or alleviates existing caveats regarding research of immigrants with the ESS, and how to solve potential problems and pitfalls
* address other methodological issues regarding research on immigrants with the ESS
* use ESS data to study immigrants in an innovative way to overcome methodological challenges.
We invite abstract submissions via the ESS management platform ConfTool (max. 500 words). For submissions, please click here.<https://www.conftool.net/ess2024/>
The deadline for submissions is 31 January 2024.

New data available in the RDC of the DZA: Old Age in Germany (D80+)
>From now on, not only Data from the German Ageing Survey<https://www.dza.de/en/research/fdz/german-ageing-survey> (DEAS) and PREFER<https://www.dza.de/en/research/fdz/prefer> (Personal Resources of Elderly People with Multimorbidity) are available for scientific research at the Research-data-center (RDC) of the DZA, but also a new dataset - the Scientific Use File of the study "Old Age in Germany" (D80+). The study was conducted by the University of Cologne and ceres (cologne centre for ethics, rights, economics, and social sciences of health) in cooperation with the German Centre of Gerontology (DZA).
With D80+, the population aged 80 years and older was surveyed nationwide in two phases in order to obtain representative information on living conditions and quality of life for the very old.
The study has an interdisciplinary design and also specifically addresses people who are no longer able to provide information themselves by having people close to them answer the questions on their behalf (proxy interviews). Furthermore, the sample was extended to include people in institutionalised forms of housing or care homes The design of the study had to be changed due to the coronavirus pandemic: the planned face-to-face survey was turned into a combined written and telephone survey. More than 10,000 people took part in the survey.
The Scientific Use File can be applied for online<https://www.dza.de/en/research/fdz/access-to-data/application>. The data can be freely accessed for scientific purposes after the conclusion of a written data usage agreement. In addition to the data, various documentation<https://www.dza.de/en/research/fdz/d80/documentation> materials and a compilation of previous publications are available on our website<https://www.dza.de/en/research/fdz/d80>.
Enjoy working with this new treasure trove of data!

Dear list members,
We would like to draw your attention to the Call for Papers for the
Research Stream 'Sociology of Spatial Mobilities', which will take place
again at the 16th Conference of the European Sociological Association
(ESA) in Porto, 27-30 August 2024.
As in 2019 in Manchester and 2021 in Barcelona (online), the Research
Stream (RS) will provide a broad forum for current research on topics
related to spatial mobility.
Details of the Call for Papers for the RS can be found below and in the
attachment.
The deadline for submitting abstracts is 15 January 2024.
Abstracts (max. 250 words) must be submitted via the conference
platform:
https://www.conftool.com/esa2024/
General information about the conference is available here:
https://www.europeansociology.org/conference/2024
We look forward to receiving your submissions!
Best regards,

RS11 - Sociology of Spatial Mobilities
Coordinators:
Knut Petzold, Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences, Germany
Heiko Rüger, Federal Institute for Population Research (BiB), Germany
Gil Viry, University of Edinburgh, UK
Recent decades have seen the emergence of more complex forms of spatial
mobility, such as long-distance commuting, circular migration,
multi-residential living, studying abroad, intensive travelling and
virtual mobility via the Internet. Major social changes, such as
migration and refugee flows, the pluralisation of living arrangements,
labour market deregulation and digitalisation have made the study of
spatial mobilities increasingly important for a broader understanding of
many sociological issues.
Spatial mobility is linked in many ways to key sociological concepts.
For example, it is often considered a prerequisite for upward social
mobility and social participation. However, access to spatial (digital)
mobility is unequally distributed, resulting in different barriers to
movement among diverse social groups, in particular across gender,
ethnic or class lines. This unequal propensity to benefit from
(im)mobility is particularly visible in times of crises, such as wars,
pandemics and climate change.
The Research Stream will bring together researchers from different
sociological fields and investigate how spatial (im)mobilities can be
conceptualised from different perspectives and how these mobility-based
concepts can be integrated into existing sociological traditions.
Possible session themes include:
• Theories, concepts and methods of studying spatial (im)mobilities
• Spatial (im)mobilities, residential choice and decision-making
processes
• Practices of spatial (im)mobilities and organisation of everyday life
• Spatial (im)mobilities over the life course and interrelations with
various life domains
• Spatial (im)mobilities, social mobility and social inequalities
• Meanings and ideologies connected with spatial (im)mobilities
• Virtual/digital spatial mobility and its relation to corporeal spatial
mobility
• Work-related travel, working from home and housing
• Mobilities and inequalities during crises, including the war in
Ukraine and the Israel-Gaza crisis

Dear colleagues,
The abstract submission deadline for the 5th Mobile Apps and Sensors in Surveys (MASS) workshop ends this week (December 1, 2023 ). MASS takes place in Washington DC (USA) from March 6-7, 2024. Please find the MASS call here: https://massworkshop.org/2023/10/25/call-for-abstracts-for-5th-mass-worksho…
This time, the Mobile Apps and Sensors in Surveys (MASS; see https://massworkshop.org/) workshop takes place jointly with the Current Innovations in Probability-based Household Internet Panel Research (CIPHER; see https://cesr.usc.edu/about_us) conference. CIPHER will be held from March 7-8, and presenters at either event are invited to attend both events.
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 people who are presenting a paper at CIPHER or MASS. Upon acceptance participants are expected to submit a handout (max. of 5 pages). The fourth MASS workshop was held at the University of Manchester in June 2023 (see https://massworkshop.org/2022/04/13/materials_2023/).
Importantly, even though MASS and CIPHER take place jointly, both events manage their submission and registration process separately. Researchers are eligible to submit abstracts to MASS and CIPHER, but the content of the abstracts must differ and should be tailored to the scope of the events. Participants accepted for CIPHER can also participate in MASS, and vice versa.
Topic scope of the workshop
For the fifth MASS workshop, we invite contributions that focus, among others, on the following issues when using mobile apps and sensors 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 non-participation)
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 specifically encourage submission of work in progress and are particularly interested in studies that used an experimental design to test strategies to collect data using mobile apps and sensors successfully. We are open to both empirical studies as well as descriptions of data collection infrastructure (e.g., front- or backend of an app) and processing of data from apps and sensors.
Travel support for PhD students
MASS workshop can provide travel support (up to $600) for PhD students. PhD students who want to be considered for travel support need to state this in their submission email and provide an explanation for why they should be considered for travel support.
Submission process and timeline
Please submit your abstract (max. 500 words) for the workshop to hoehne(a)dzhw.eu<mailto:hoehne@dzhw.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:
01 December 2023: Deadline for abstract submission
10 December 2023: Feedback on acceptance will be provided
15 February 2024: 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. Participants are expected to read all handouts before coming to the workshop.
06 March 2024: Start of MASS workshop
We are really looking forward to your MASS submissions. In case of questions, please do not hesitate to contact Jan Karem Höhne (hoehne(a)dzhw.eu<mailto:hoehne@dzhw.eu>).
