Abstract: Mobile phones are attractive to use in studies of humans. Phones potentially allow researchers to study objective facts (like health) behaviors (time use, travel behavior) or attitudes (asking questions in the moment) in a better, faster or cheaper way than using other research methods, such as surveys. Mobile phones can be used to ask survey questions, but also allow location-tracking, the study of human interactions, the use of pictures, and various other sensors.

Abstract: “During the last few years, an increasing proportion of surveys have been answered through the Internet, especially with smartphones. The enhanced capabilities of PCs and particularly smartphones provide new methodological opportunities. Devices’ sensors and apps allow researchers to collect new types of data, which can improve and expand survey measurement, and offer the potential to reduce measurement errors, respondent’s burden, and data collection costs.
