Managing the Challenges of Modern Research Surveys

One of the most pervasive tools in empirical research is the survey. Historically, surveys have been central to social science and psychology research. Survey methodologies are rapidly evolving with the rise of computerized technologies. Online survey websites and smartphones in particular facilitate faster and cheaper collection of survey data. But these new opportunities come at a cost: faster and cheaper surveying demands greater attention be paid to data integrity issues. Prometheus's Research Exchange Database (RexDB) offers a highly customizable software platform suited to manage survey data for research.
