Duo-ethnography is a collaborative methodology in which participants juxtapose their experiences around a topic to parse multiple perspectives. It explicitly positions ethnographers as sources of information, not data collectors. This method has been used to explore racial identities, class dynamics, decolonizing pedagogies, and gender in academic life. Building on previous work, we consider our contribution to be articulating duo-ethnography as an explicitly feminist methodology that allows for mutual exploration of difference as well as reciprocal care and support. As part of a larger collaboration, we used duo-ethnography to create explicit dialog spaces during the COVID-19 pandemic to talk about differences in our experiences related to sexuality, race, class, tenure position, and seniority. Duo-ethnography is one method we used to challenge junior/senior relations and transform how we related to one another.
双重民族志是一种合作方法,参与者将他们的经历围绕一个主题并置,以解析多个视角。它明确地将民族志学家定位为信息来源,而不是数据收集者。这种方法已被用于探索种族身份、阶级动态、非殖民化教学法和学术生活中的性别。在之前工作的基础上,我们认为我们的贡献是将二人民族志阐明为一种明确的女权主义方法,允许相互探索差异以及相互关心和支持。作为更大合作的一部分,我们在新冠肺炎大流行期间使用双人摄影创建了明确的对话空间,以讨论我们在性、种族、阶级、任期职位和资历方面的经验差异。双重民族志是我们用来挑战初级/高级关系并改变我们彼此关系的一种方法。

Emotions are omnipresent in any court of law. In this short take, I suggest applying the Articulated Thought in Simulated Situations (ATSS) paradigm as a useful addition to supplement methodologies like interviewing and observations. ATSS, which originated in social sciences to study cognitive–behavioral topics, can be easily adapted for use in legal settings because of the flexibility of the vignettes used. Based on my own experience in criminal justice, I formulate recommendations for using ATSS: to avoid participant distraction, to pretest each study and to give clear instructions to participants, and to embed research in the workflow of the legal professional. All three recommendations tap into the same strength: coming as close as possible to actual emotion work of the professional.
情绪在任何法庭上都无处不在。在这篇短文中,我建议应用模拟情境中的清晰思维(ATSS)范式,作为对访谈和观察等方法的补充。ATSS起源于社会科学,用于研究认知-行为主题,由于所用小插曲的灵活性,可以很容易地在法律环境中使用。根据我自己在刑事司法方面的经验,我制定了使用ATSS的建议:避免参与者分心,对每项研究进行预测试,并向参与者发出明确的指示,并将研究嵌入法律专业人员的工作流程中。这三条建议都具有相同的优势:尽可能接近专业人士的实际情感工作。

Infrequent Identity Signals, Multiple Correspondence, and Detection Risks in Audit Correspondence Studies. 审计函证研究中的非频繁身份信号、多重函证和检测风险。
IF 1.7 3区 社会学 Q2 ANTHROPOLOGY Pub Date : 2023-02-01 Epub Date: 2022-01-12 DOI: 10.1177/1525822x211057623

Audit correspondence studies are field experiments that test for discriminatory behavior in active markets. Researchers measure discrimination by comparing how responsive individuals ("audited units") are to correspondences from different types of people. This paper elaborates on the tradeoffs researchers face between sending audited units only one correspondence and sending them multiple correspondences, especially when including less common identity signals in the correspondences. We argue that when researchers use audit correspondence studies to measure discrimination against individuals that infrequently interact with audited units, they raise the risk that these audited units become aware they are being studied or otherwise act differently. We also argue that sending multiple pieces of correspondence can increase detection risk. We present the result of an audit correspondence study that demonstrates how detection can occur for these reasons, leading to significantly attenuated (biased towards zero) estimates of discrimination.

审计对应研究是一种实地实验,用于测试活跃市场中的歧视行为。研究人员通过比较个人("被审计单位")对来自不同类型人群的信件的反应程度来衡量歧视行为。本文详细阐述了研究人员在只向被审核单位发送一封信函和向他们发送多封信函之间所面临的权衡,尤其是在信函中包含不太常见的身份信号时。我们认为,当研究人员使用审计通信研究来衡量与被审计单位互动不频繁的个人所受到的歧视时,就会增加这些被审计单位意识到他们正在被研究或采取其他不同行为的风险。我们还认为,发送多份函文会增加检测风险。我们介绍了一项审计函证研究的结果,该结果表明,由于上述原因,可能会出现被发现的情况,从而导致对歧视的估计值显著减弱(偏向于零)。

While numerical bipolar rating scales may evoke positivity bias, little is known about the corresponding bias in verbal bipolar rating scales. The choice of verbalization of the middle category may lead to response bias, particularly if it is not in line with the scale polarity. Unipolar and bipolar seven-category rating scales in which the verbalizations of the middle categories matched or did not match the implemented polarity were investigated in randomized experiments using a non-probabilistic online access panel in Germany. Bipolar rating scales exhibited higher positivity bias and acquiescence than unipolar rating scales. Reliability, validity, and equidistance tended to be violated if the verbalizations of the middle category did not match scale polarity. The results provide a rationale for rating scale verbalization.
虽然数字双相评定量表可能会引发积极偏见,但对言语双相评定表中相应的偏见知之甚少。选择中间类别的动词化可能会导致反应偏差,特别是如果它不符合量表的极性。在德国使用非概率在线访问面板进行的随机实验中,研究了单极性和双极性七类评定量表,其中中间类别的措辞与实施的极性匹配或不匹配。两极评定量表比单极评定量表表现出更高的积极偏向和默许。如果中间类别的措辞与量表的极性不匹配,则倾向于违反信度、有效性和等距性。研究结果为评定量表语言化提供了依据。

Accurate assessment of saliva sampling time is essential for studies that collect cortisol sample in ambulatory settings. This study examined the sampling time assessed by user-submitted photos via a mobile application (ZEMI) compared with MEMSCaps™. Intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) of the time differences between when the 16 adolescents in the study were prompted to collect the sample and (1) when the MEMSCaps™ was opened (TimeM), and (2) when photos of the corresponding sample were submitted (TimeZ) was computed to evaluate the agreement of sampling times. The average TimeM and TimeZ 12.06 ± 65.80 and 16.13 ± 52.07 minutes, respectively. The pooled ICC between TimeM and TimeZ was 0.986 (95% CI: 0.959–0.995), suggesting excellent correspondence between the two measurements.
唾液采样时间的准确评估是必不可少的研究,收集皮质醇样本在门诊设置。本研究检验了用户通过移动应用程序(ZEMI)提交的照片评估的采样时间,并与MEMSCaps™进行了比较。计算16名青少年被提示采集样本与(1)打开MEMSCaps™(TimeM)和(2)提交相应样本照片(TimeZ)之间的时间差的班级内相关系数(ICC),以评估采样时间的一致性。TimeM和TimeZ的平均值分别为12.06±65.80和16.13±52.07分钟。TimeM和TimeZ之间的合并ICC为0.986 (95% CI: 0.959-0.995),表明两个测量值之间具有良好的对应关系。

Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) can capture how sleep, stress, and well-being are related within individuals. However, the use of EMA involves participant burden, which may be a major barrier when studying at-risk populations like frontline workers. To guide future research interested in using EMA, this study examined variance components in sleep, stress, and well-being variables collected from health care workers. Two samples of hospital nurses (60 inpatient, 84 outpatient) responded to 2-week smartphone-based EMA. Adherence to the EMA protocol was good in both samples. Results from intraclass correlations showed more momentary variability in stressors and uplifts, more daily variability in sleep, fatigue, and physical symptoms, and more between-person variability in affect, rumination, and work quality. Across the variables, however, there was substantial within-person variability. Variance components were relatively consistent between workdays and non-workdays and between week 1 and week 2. Some nuanced between-sample differences were noted.
生态瞬时评估(EMA)可以捕捉到个体的睡眠、压力和幸福感是如何相互关联的。然而,EMA的使用涉及参与者负担,这可能是研究一线工作人员等高危人群时的主要障碍。为了指导未来对使用EMA感兴趣的研究,本研究检查了从卫生保健工作者那里收集的睡眠、压力和幸福变量的方差成分。两个医院护士样本(60名住院病人,84名门诊病人)对2周基于智能手机的EMA有反应。两个样本对EMA方案的依从性都很好。班级内相关性的结果显示,压力源和兴奋的瞬间差异更大,睡眠、疲劳和身体症状的日常差异更大,情感、沉思和工作质量的人与人之间差异更大。然而,在这些变量中,存在大量的个人差异。工作日与非工作日、第1周与第2周的方差成分相对一致。注意到样本之间的一些细微差别。

Even small monetary incentives, e.g., a one-dollar bill in a postal invitation letter, can increase the response rate in a web survey. However, in the euro currency area, the smallest amount of monetary incentive for a postal invitation is a five-euro bill, which is costly. As such, we conducted a random experiment with prepaid stamp and postcard incentives as affordable alternatives. We compare the effect of our experimental groups with a control group in terms of response rates, response rates in a subsequent wave, data linkage consent, and data collection costs. Compared with the control group, the postcard incentive has no effect on our outcomes except overall costs. Using a prepaid stamp incentive increases the response rate overall but with different effect sizes for subgroups. We find no effect of stamp incentives on response rates in a subsequent wave or data linkage consent.
即使是很小的金钱奖励,例如邮寄邀请函中的一美元纸币,也可以提高网络调查的回复率。然而,在欧元区,邮寄邀请函的最低货币激励是5欧元纸币,这是昂贵的。因此,我们进行了一项随机实验,将预付邮票和明信片奖励作为负担得起的替代方案。我们比较了实验组和对照组在反应率、后续波反应率、数据链接同意和数据收集成本方面的效果。与对照组相比,明信片激励对我们的结果没有影响,除了总体成本。使用预付邮票激励总体上提高了响应率,但对子组的影响大小不同。我们发现,在随后的浪潮或数据链接同意中,印花激励对响应率没有影响。

We examine the use of publicly available voter rolls for household survey sampling as an alternative to household listings or field-based sampling methods. Using voter rolls for sampling can save most of the cost of constructing a sampling frame relative to a household listing, but there is limited evidence about their accuracy and completeness. We conducted a household listing in 13 polling stations in India comprising 2,416 households across four states and compared the listing to voter rolls for the same polling stations. We show that voter rolls include 91% of the households found in the household listing. We conduct simulations to show that sampling from voter rolls produces estimates of household-level economic variables with minimal bias. These results suggest that voter rolls may be suitable for constructing household sampling frames, particularly in rural India.
我们研究了使用公开的选民名册进行家庭调查抽样,作为家庭名单或实地抽样方法的替代方案。使用选民名册进行抽样可以节省相对于家庭名单构建抽样框架的大部分成本,但关于其准确性和完整性的证据有限。我们在印度的13个投票站对四个州的2416户家庭进行了家庭登记,并将该登记与同一投票站的选民名册进行了比较。我们显示,选民名册包括家庭名单中91%的家庭。我们进行了模拟,以表明从选民名册中抽样可以以最小的偏差对家庭层面的经济变量进行估计。这些结果表明,选民名册可能适合构建家庭抽样框架,尤其是在印度农村。

What about the Less IT Literate? A Comparison of Different Postal Recruitment Strategies to an Online Panel of the General Population IT Literate降低了多少?不同邮政招聘策略与普通人群在线小组的比较

Even though the proportion of individuals who are not equipped to participate in online surveys is constantly decreasing, many surveys face an under-representation of individuals who do not feel IT literate enough to participate. Using experimental data from a probability-based online panel, we study which recruitment survey mode strategy performs best in recruiting less IT-literate persons for an online panel. The sampled individuals received postal invitations to conduct the recruitment survey in a self-completion mode. We experimentally vary four recruitment survey mode strategies: one online mode strategy, two sequential mixed-mode strategies, and one concurrent mode strategy. We find the recruitment survey mode strategies to have a major effect on the sample composition of the recruitment survey, but the differences between the strategies vanish once respondents are asked to proceed with the panel online.
尽管没有能力参加在线调查的个人比例不断下降,但许多调查都面临着缺乏信息技术知识的人的代表性。使用来自基于概率的在线小组的实验数据,我们研究了哪种招聘调查模式策略在为在线小组招聘不太懂IT的人方面表现最好。被抽样的个人收到了以自我完成模式进行招聘调查的邮寄邀请。我们通过实验改变了四种招聘调查模式策略:一种在线模式策略、两种顺序混合模式策略和一种并发模式策略。我们发现,招聘调查模式策略对招聘调查的样本构成有重大影响,但一旦受访者被要求在线进行小组讨论,策略之间的差异就会消失。

Using experimental data from a probability-based online panel, we study which recruitment survey mode strategy performs best in recruiting less IT-literate persons for an online panel. The sampled individuals received postal invitations to conduct the recruitment survey in a self-completion mode. We experimentally vary four recruitment survey mode strategies: one online mode strategy, two sequential mixed-mode strategies, and one concurrent mode strategy. We find the recruitment survey mode strategies to have a major effect on the sample composition of the recruitment survey, but the differences between the strategies vanish once respondents are asked to proceed with the panel online.","PeriodicalId":48060,"journal":{"name":"Field Methods","volume":"35 1","pages":"219 - 235"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2022-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49627250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Questionnaire designers are encouraged to write questions as complete sentences. In self-administered surveys, incomplete question stems may reduce visual clutter but may also increase burden when respondents need to scan the response options to fully complete the question. We experimentally examine the effects of three categories of incomplete question stems (incomplete conversational, incomplete ordinal, and incomplete nominal questions) versus complete question stems on 53 items in a probability web-mail survey. We examine item nonresponse, response time, selection of the first and last response options, and response distributions. We find that incomplete question stems take slightly longer to answer and slightly reduce the selection of the last response option but have no effect on item nonresponse rates or selection of the first response option. We conclude that questionnaire designers should follow current best practices to write complete questions, but deviations from complete questions will likely have limited effects.
问卷设计者被鼓励把问题写成完整的句子。在自我管理的调查中,不完整的问题可能会减少视觉混乱,但也可能增加负担,因为受访者需要扫描回答选项才能完全完成问题。我们通过实验研究了三种不完整题干(不完整会话题干、不完整顺序题干和不完整标称题干)与完整题干在概率网络邮件调查中的53个项目上的影响。我们检查了项目不响应、响应时间、第一个和最后一个响应选项的选择以及响应分布。我们发现,不完整的题干需要稍长的时间来回答,并略微减少最后一个回答选项的选择,但对项目无反应率或第一反应选项的选择没有影响。我们得出结论,问卷设计者应该遵循当前的最佳实践来编写完整的问题,但偏离完整的问题可能会产生有限的影响。
