The Internet and the development of more user-engaging applications have opened a whole new world for researchers as a means of recruitment and data collection source. This paper describes the methodological approach of a research study that explored the experiences of Australian military spouses who packed up their family and home to accompany their spouse on an overseas posting. The study used Facebook as a recruitment tool and then as a data source through the conduct of an asynchronous virtual focus group. This paper outlines the advantages and disadvantages of this unique data source as a means of capturing the voices of a hard-to-reach population.
互联网以及更多用户参与度高的应用程序的发展，为研究人员开辟了一个全新的世界，成为一种招募手段和数据收集来源。本文描述了一项研究的方法论，该研究探讨了澳大利亚军人配偶的经历，他们收拾好家庭和住所，陪伴配偶进行海外派驻。该研究将脸书用作招募工具，然后通过开展异步虚拟焦点小组将其用作数据来源。本文概述了这种独特数据源作为获取难以接触人群声音的手段的优缺点。
