To examine the use of the Internet in a survey of drinking among students, and the effectiveness of incentives to encourage participation.
In a survey of drinking in university students, a random sample of 160 students were randomly assigned to one of four token incentive conditions. All received posted invitations, and reminders by e-mail and telephone.
Overall response was 85% and did not differ significantly by incentive condition.
Internet surveys are effective in obtaining alcohol use information from students. Minimal incentives may suffice if coupled with intensive follow-up.
在一项关于学生饮酒情况的调查中研究互联网的使用,以及鼓励参与的激励措施的有效性。
在一项对大学生饮酒情况的调查中,160名学生的随机样本被随机分配到四种代币激励条件之一。所有人都收到了邮寄邀请,并通过电子邮件和电话收到提醒。
总体回复率为85%,不同激励条件下的回复率无显著差异。
互联网调查在从学生那里获取饮酒信息方面是有效的。如果辅以密集的跟进,最小限度的激励可能就足够了。
