Abstract:
|
This paper discusses the challenges in building shared information technology systems for survey data collection. We discuss the pitfalls of supporting multiple and redundant data collection systems. We recount our interviews with a cross-section of colleagues in the statistical field and argue that to achieve the best outcomes, technology innovations in system and enterprise architecture must be intertwined with methodological innovations such as adaptive survey design.
