This article provides an overview of the use of the Internet for conducting studies after terrorist attacks and other large-scale disasters. We begin with a brief summary of the scientific and logistical challenges of conducting such research, followed by a description of some of the most important design features that are required to produce valid findings. We then describe one approach to Internet surveys that, although not perfect, addresses many of the challenges well. We close with some thoughts about how the Internet-based methods available today are likely to develop further in coming years.
本文概述了利用互联网对恐怖袭击及其他大规模灾难后进行研究的情况。我们首先简要总结开展此类研究的科学和后勤方面的挑战，接着描述为得出有效研究结果所需的一些最重要的设计特点。然后我们介绍一种互联网调查方法，该方法虽不完美，但能很好地应对诸多挑战。最后，我们对当今可用的基于互联网的方法在未来几年可能如何进一步发展提出一些看法。
