Hi everyone,
I’m currently directing a project in which participants will be required to download an Android app that’s been developed to collect on-screen survey and non-identifying log data. Ideally, we’d like the sample to be of approximately 2,000 adult Android users living in a large metropolitan area. We would prefer to avoid using a panel maintained by a research company and instead collect the data ourselves using a random sampling method. Given that collecting the data via a mobile application is a fairly new approach, there are a number of considerations that suggest modifications to traditional random sampling designs. If anyone on this list could suggest publications that discuss random sampling methods used to recruit large samples of participants to install mobile phone apps, that would be very much appreciated! Please feel free to send your suggestions to: j.bo...@utoronto.ca. Additionally, if you are interested in this topic, please let me know and I will send a list of the references that I receive in response to this query.
