When there is a project that requires data collection, the machinery of Data Center (DC) is set in motion. As any machine, we need good inputs to develop and handle good outputs. The main goal of this paper is to explain the methodological process of a survey in our department as well as the information needed to develop a survey. We follow the presentation given by Professor Yves Tillé on 30 May 2018 focusing on the steps of a survey. We give special attention on the conception of a survey, the dissociation between the survey and the research project and the information required to develop the “data collection”. This document aims to give a practical perspective to the survey process.

The advancement of information technologies such as Web 2.0 and Cloud Computing and the increasing deployment and use of the Internet of Things have promoted the capture, processing and storage of data over the last few years at a rate not seen before. The amount of data that are created, captured, or replicated globally was 33 Zettabytes in 2018 and is predicted to grow to 175 Zettabytes by 2025. The considerable amount and high availability of data have a substantial potential value to businesses and governments.
Data are symbols that describe the properties of objects and events. Information is processed data that provide answers to “who”, “what”, ”where”, “when” and “how many” questions. Data themselves are not necessarily meaningful. Information is derived from data with a specific purpose and, thus, is meaningful in certain contexts.
This paper attempts to comprehensively review the state of the art of existing data pricing methods to provide a general understanding of this emerging research area. Also, it proposes a novel classification of data pricing methods in which the methods are grouped according to the fundamental properties of data to be priced.

We survey the recent, fast-growing literature on peer effects in networks. An important recurring theme is that the causal identification of peer effects depends on the structure of the network itself. In the absence of correlated effects, the reflection problem is generally solved by network interactions even in nonlinear, heterogeneous models. By contrast, microfoundations are generally not identified. We discuss and assess the various approaches developed by economists to account for correlated effects and network endogeneity in particular. We classify these approaches in four broad categories: random peers, random shocks, structural endogeneity, and panel data. We review an emerging literature relaxing the assumption that the network is perfectly known. Throughout, we provide a critical reading of the existing literature and identify important gaps and directions for future research.

I use consumer surveys to compare black and white National Football League (NFL) stars' popularity among US adults before and after player protests during the national anthem. The popularity of 43 of the best-known NFL stars is observed in spring 2015 and spring 2018. Difference-in-differences analysis shows that black stars who participated in the protests lost three percentage points of approval in the general population relative to white players who did not participate. Protesting players especially lost popularity among whites and less educated adults. There was a particularly important backlash against black NFL players among whites without a college education. In that population, black players lost public approval relative to white players even if they did not participate in the protests. The lost popularity of non-protesting blacks is evidence of the role of racial resentment in public opinion regarding the anthem controversy.

"Person, family, society" is a large-scale representative population survey in Russia, which addresses all key issues of socio-economic and demographic development. The first two waves of the survey for comparable instruments were conducted in 2013 and in 2015. In 2015, it was decided to abandon the paper technology interview and go to paperless surveys. Two technologies were tested: a telephone survey and a quarterly survey on tablets. Based on the results of the analysis of the results of these two components of the survey, it was decided to dwell on conducting a telephone survey as the main one in 2017. Telephone technology makes it possible to implement a completely random sample of respondents. Despite a number of restrictions related to the length of the interview, remote contact with the respondent, the quality of communication and other aspects, telephone technology now seems to be the most adequate way of conducting mass population surveys.

This survey presents the survey on motivation and suggestions from seniors to study Ph.D. direct after completion of masters study. This paper is prepared to form the survey, done on a Facebook closed group named “Ph.D. and Postdoc Positions”. The inquiry status was, “After Masters what are your suggestions: Ph.D. or Job”. The sample survey was done for 24 hours where 365 commentators commented on the post and found 49.45% of them suggested to do job directly after masters, other recommended to do Ph.D., Job & Ph.D. at the same time, do marry, self-business and others as travel, take rest and so on were 25.28% , 14.01%,5.22% ,3.02% and 3.02% respectively. According to the responses a dynamic mental model is formed to understand the entire suggestions.

Using a representative sample of the German adult population, this paper investigates the extent to which a survey measure of present bias predicts present-biased choice behavior in incentive-compatible experiments and real-world outcomes related to in-vestments in financial assets and human capital. The results are threefold. First, the survey and experimental measures of present bias are significantly related. Second, the survey measure predicts choices between immediate and delayed monetary payoffs inan incentive-compatible experiment, but not between payoffs at two future points in time. Third, the survey measure of present bias is a good predictor of the propensity to save money, to obtain a university degree, and to maintain a healthy life style. In most specifications, the survey measure tends to be a stronger predictor of real life outcomes than the experimentally elicited measure of present bias.

Linking survey data to administrative records provides access to large quantities of information such as full employment biographies. Although this practice is becoming increasingly common, only a small number of studies in the field of social sciences have thus far investigated the variables associated with linkage consent. These studies have produced diverging results with regard to the relevance of certain characteristics for the provision or non-provision of linkage consent. In this study, we analyze two comparable German datasets, thereby shedding new light on the possible reasons for previously inconsistent results. This is also the first study in which possible linkage consent bias is investigated in applied models, via the replication of an existing study for the sample in which respondents did not consent to data linkage. Whilst similar results are found between standard sociodemographic variables and linkage consent, there are considerable inconsistencies between the comparable datasets in terms of variables such as individual personality traits and work satisfaction. Overall, however, the results are promising - results do not differ much where respondents who did not provide linkage consent are considered.

As the market is playing an increasingly important role in the Chinese economy, we ask which value the Chinese people will support, what effect the endorsed value (i.e., achievement) will have on consumers’ social system confidence, and how brand symbolism can function in adapting to the social system as well as human values. Based on previous research on human values, system justification theory, and symbolic roles of brands, the current research aims to make those problems clear. It is assumed that achievement value and system confidence have an interaction effect on brand attitude. Thus, consumers with higher system confidence are supposed to positively evaluate a brand if the brand as well as its advertising reflect the achievement value. Two experiments were conducted to verify these hypotheses. Study 1 points out the positive relationship between the achievement value and the system confidence. Study 2 further proves the moderation role of the system confidence in the process of the value reflected both in brand and in brand advertising affecting brand attitude. Finally, implications for theory and management, limitations and future directions are discussed.
