“…The online measurement may lead to a lower data quality with respect to missing values and selectivity. Kogovsek et al (2002) showed that the collection of ego-centered network data is possible by means of a telephone interview. Kogovsek (2006) compared reliability and validity of ego-centered network measures collected by means of a web survey with those collected by means of a telephone interview.…”

a b s t r a c tWe analyze whether differences in kind and quality of ego-centered network data are related to whether the data are collected online or offline. We report the results of two studies. In the first study respondents could choose between filling out ego-centered data through a web questionnaire and being probed about their network in a personalized interview. The second study used a design in which respondents were allocated at random to either online or offline data collection. Our results show that the data quality suffers from the online data collection and the findings indicate that this is the consequence of the respondents answering "mechanically". We conclude that network researchers should avoid to simply copy traditional network items into a web questionnaire. More research is needed about how new design elements specific for web questionnaires can motivate respondents to fill out network questions properly.

“…Although no difference existed between the applications of the two types of surveys to clinical research, previous studies have indicated that web-based surveys are extremely useful for example, these surveys possess excellent integration ability, can process complex questionnaire analysis, reduce errors and manage data that require special treatment [2,15]. In addition, electronic questionnaires can be designed to automatically time-stamp the data [14], thereby accurately reflecting the time at which a questionnaire is completed.…”

Web-based surveys are frequently applied in clinical research. In this study, hospital patients were requested to complete web-based and traditional hand written questionnaires. The t test and intraclass correlation coefficients were used to compare the results of the web-based and traditional hand written questionnaires. The survey results of 81 participants showed no significant score differences between the web-based and traditional hand written questionnaires.The 81 participants did not show any preference for either web-based or pencil-and-paper based surveys, and the statistical results showed no significant difference between the two types of survey. Therefore, this study suggested using webbased questionnaires instead of pencil-and-paper based questionnaires, because using web-based questionnaires can decrease doctor consultation time, reduce labor costs, provide patients with remote self-assessment services prior to a clinic visit and adequately collect questionnaires to enhance research capability. Furthermore, this type of questionnaire survey enables patients to answer personal questions honestly.Keywords: Incontinence impact questionnaire-7 (IIQ-7), Pelvic organ prolapse/urinary incontinence sexual function questionnaire-12 (PISQ-12), Pencil-and-paper questionnaire, Urinary distress inventory-6 (UDI-6), Urinary incontinence, Web-based questionnaire.

“…People generally have specialized ego networks based on these types, meaning that different types of social support are offered by different people (Kogovsek, Ferligoj, Coenders & Saris, 2002;Vaux, 1988;Wellman & Wortley, 1990) suggesting again that the diversity of ego-network is related to the availability of social support.…”
