Survey Sidekick: Structuring Scientifically Sound Surveys
نویسندگان
چکیده
Online surveys are becoming more popular as a means of information gathering in both academia and industry because of their relatively low cost and delivery. However, there are increasing debates on data quality in online surveys. We present a novel survey prototyping tool that integrates embedded learning resources to facilitate the survey prototyping process and encourage creating scientifically sound surveys. Results from a controlled pilot study confirmed that survey structure follows three guided principles: simplefirst, structure-coherent and gradual-difficulty-increase, revealing positive effects on survey structures under learning resources influences.

Students use Facebook to organize their classroom experiences [1], but hardly to share and form opinions on subject matters. We explore the benefits of argument diagrams for the formation of scientific opinion on behaviorism in Facebook. We aim at raising awareness of opinion conflict and structuring the argumentation with scripts [2]. A lab study with University students (ten dyads per conditi...

متن کاملSarah and Sally: Creating a Likeable and Competent AI Sidekick for a Videogame
Creating reasonable AI for sidekicks in games has proven to be a difficult challenge synthetizing player modelling and cooperative planning, both being problems hard by themselves. In this paper, we experiment with designing around these problems: we propose a cooperative puzzle-platformer game that was designed to look similarly to the mainstream of the genre, but to allow for an easy implemen...
