Study Notes
Questionnaire Checking
- Ensures questionnaires are complete and accurate during fieldwork, even if an agency was contracted
- Common problems include incomplete or inconsistent answers, variance in answers, late submissions, and unqualified respondents
Editing
- Reviews questionnaires to increase accuracy and precision
- Addresses issues such as illegible, incomplete, inconsistent, and ambiguous answers
Treatment of Unsatisfactory Responses
- Returns to the field to rectify issues with respondent or interviewer
- Assigns missing values based on other answers
- Discards unsatisfactory responses if non-essential questions are missed
- Discards respondents who did not take the study seriously
Coding
- Assigns a numerical code to each response to each question
- Develops a data file for analysis
Data Cleaning
- Conducts consistency checks
- Treats missing responses by substituting neutral values, imputed responses, or deleting cases
- Options include casewise or pairwise deletion
Statistically Adjusting the Data
- Enhances data analysis through weighting, variable respecification, and scale transformation
- Not always necessary but improves data quality
International Research
- Ensures comparable units of measurement across countries
- Analyzes data at the individual level for accurate knowledge of each respondent
- Cross-cultural analysis compares similarities and differences between countries
- Pan-cultural analysis examines all respondents as a whole
Social Media Research
- Collects data through social media
- Codes and categorizes text data
- Mines and visualizes text data for insights
