Why gather data electronically?
- Easy storage. Paper forms are easy to lose, and bulky to
store. Many disciplines require researchers to store their data for years
even after the results have been entered into a computer. You may need
to lug around and store hundreds or thousands of pounds of paper in the course
of your career.
- Fewer errors and less work. Data entry introduces errors,
takes time, and hey... it's tedious.
- It's cheaper to send people a URL than a paper questionnaire.
- A number of studies have attempted to compare the effects on survey
results of the manner of data collection. In general, the results
gathered either have found greater levels of self-disclosure with
online respondents or no difference.
