We describe the feasibility of audio-enhanced personal digital assistants (ADPAs) for data collection with 60 Latino migrant farmworkers. All participants chose to complete APDA surveys rather than using paper-and-pencil. No one left the study prematurely: two (3%) data cases were lost due to technical difficulties. Across all data .27% missing data were observed: nine missing responses on eight items. Participants took 19 minutes on average to complete the 58-question survey. The factor most influential for completion was education level. APDA methodology enabled both English- and Spanish-speaking Latino migrant farmworkers to become active research participants with minimal loss of data.
我们描述了使用 60 名拉丁裔流动农民工进行音频增强型个人数字助理 (APDA) 数据收集的可行性。所有参与者都选择使用 APDA 完成调查,而不是使用纸笔。没有人提前退出研究:由于技术困难,有两个(3%)数据案例丢失。所有数据的缺失率为.27%:八项中有九个缺失的回答。参与者平均需要 19 分钟完成 58 个问题的调查。完成调查的最主要影响因素是教育水平。APDA 方法使英语和西班牙语的拉丁裔流动农民工都能够成为积极的研究参与者,并且数据损失最小。
