Tracing ChatGPT Use in Spain
Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are transforming how people work, learn and create, reshaping everyday digital interactions. Among them, ChatGPT stands out as a particularly disruptive innovation, reaching 100 million users within two months of its launch and becoming the fastest‐growing digital application in history. Understanding how ChatGPT is being adopted—and whether adoption differs across population groups—is essential for anticipating…
The utility of digital trace data to understand how people search for jobs online
This study explores the utility of metered data, a specific form of digital trace data, for analyzing online job-seeking behaviors in Spain. Using nine months of data from 600 participants, it evaluates which job search-related concepts can be measured and the impact of two factors on the resulting indicators: the devices used to gather the data and the data collection period. Findings reveal that metered data can effectively operationalize conce…
A practical guide to (successfully) collect and process images through online surveys
Asking online survey respondents to share images is a practice that has gained notoriety recently. Although this collecting strategy may offer many advantages, it requires researchers to know how to operationalize, collect, process, and analyze this type of data, which is not yet an extended expertise among survey practitioners. This paper aims to guide researchers inexperienced in image analysis by presenting the main steps involved in the proce…
Empathy & civic engagement
Civic identity
We explore how Latiné immigrant-origin youth used and made sense of media to enact their civic identities during the 2020 US presidential election cycle. In a polarized national context, this project highlights the voices and experiences of the participants (n=39). We conducted and analysed semi-structured interviews to identify three comprehensive themes. Findings suggest that how participants used social media to dispel misinformation allowed t…
Use of a research app in an online opt-in panel
The increasing use of mobile devices in the frame of online surveys has been accompanied by the development of research apps. These research apps have the potential to facilitate the process for respondents (e.g. being able to complete surveys when Internet is not available provides more freedom on when and where participants can participate) and fieldwork companies (e.g. the possibility to use push notifications could lead to higher participatio…
Willingness to Participate in a Metered Online Panel
Passive data from a tracking application (or "meter") installed on participants' devices to register the URLs visited have great potential for studying people's online activities. However, given privacy concerns, obtaining cooperation installing a meter can be difficult and lead to selection bias. Therefore, in this article, we address three research questions: (1) To what extent are panelists willing to install a meter? (2) On which devices do t…
To what extent are members of an online panel willing to share different data types? A conjoint experiment
Recently, the idea of 'data fusion', that is, of combining different types of data, became quite popular because of the advances of new technologies. In particular, several studies started investigating the possibility of combining survey data with other data types in order to get a more complete or accurate picture of the reality and/or to reduce survey burden. One key element, then, is the willingness of people to share different types of data,…
Do online access panels need to adapt surveys for mobile devices
Purpose – Despite the quick spread of the use of mobile devices in survey participation, there is still little knowledge about the potentialities and challenges that arise from this increase. The purpose of this paper is to study how respondents’ preferences drive their choice of a certain device when participating in surveys. Furthermore, this paper evaluates the tolerance of participants when specifically asked to use mobile devices and carry o…
Using Passive Data From a Meter to Complement Survey Data in Order to Study Online Behavior
Surveys have been used as main tool of data collection in many areas of research and for many years. However, the environment is changing increasingly quickly, creating new challenges and opportunities. This article argues that, in this new context, human memory limitations lead to inaccurate results when using surveys in order to study objective online behavior: People cannot recall everything they did. It therefore investigates the possibility …
Quality of Different Scales in an Online Survey in Mexico and Colombia
The formulation of theories and hypotheses is done at the level of concepts. These concepts are often tested by operationalizing them using survey questions. However, measurement errors make it impossible for survey questions to measure the concepts of interest perfectly. In order to correct for measurement errors, information is needed about their size, or the size of their complement, the quality. For the USA and Europe, a lot is already known …
What are the Links in a Web Survey Among Response Time, Quality, and Auto-Evaluation of the Efforts Done
Evaluating the quality of the data is a key preoccupation for researchers to be confident in their results. When web surveys are used, it seems even more crucial since the researchers have less control on the data collection process. However, they also have the possibility to collect some paradata that may help evaluating the quality. Using this paradata, it was noticed that some respondents of web panels are spending much less time than expected…
