Hello, my name is Samantha Tarkington. I'm surveying gaming experiences for my senior psychology project at Maryville University. Participation involves answering questions about an individual's gaming habits and their mood. The survey should take less than 15 minutes. The survey is anonymous, and all responses will be used solely for academic purposes. Any participation I get would be greatly appreciated! If you're interested in participating, please follow this link:

Hello ResearchGate Community!

I'm surveying the Generative AI industry and seeking expert opinions to enhance my understanding.

I would greatly appreciate your valuable opinions.

What type of Generative AI are you most familiar with?

Survey Link: https://forms.gle/1Aqk7utYq4EKb98T7

Time Required: Approximately 2-5 minutes.

The survey will be open until November 4, 2024.

What does vertical datum refer to? Is it Mean Sea Level (MSL)? Is it a zero mark in the tide gauge? Is it some other height value than zero, far from the tide gauge? Is it one reference benchmark? Is it all the benchmarks in the levelling network? Is it the combination of all these?

We have been repeatedly surveying areas thousands of km from the coast. I think critical to use magnetic data from laboratories in the continent who also might be influenced by local thunderstorms. One possible way is to attach a magnetometer to an oceanographic anchored buoy.

I can analyze if an anomaly is real by observing its behavior in two paralel lines but that will not account for diurnal variation at the day of each acquisition. Therefore, amplitude and any estimates for depth might be erroneous.

My regards, Oderson/Geol. Survey of Brazil

as an educator in conservation, it is very important that i teach methods that are non destructive. such as counting insect visitation to flowers, for pollinator diversity and abundance studies. i have found only one reference (Frankie et al. 2005) suggesting an appropriate time to observe flowers. thanks in advance

I am currently searching for more information on implementation of Building Infromation Modeling (BIM) in mining industry. Would be glad to see any article recomendations.

For my master thesis i'm surveying 200 salespeople to see the effect of wellbeing programs on productivity. They are split into 2 groups, 100 for control and 100 where i apply wellbeing programs.

The DV is number of sales (continuous), and there are more categorical IVs(likert scales)(e.g ' how often have you felt worn out, how often have you felt stresses) all those questions are showing levels of wellbeing but not directly linked with wellbeing in the question. Should i rephrase them to 'does wellbeing help with stress or does wellbeing program help you feel less worn out' because i didn't find any statistical test to help me with the this relationship.

Is there a statistical test to use or should i rephrase them all?

I'm an undergraduate student of civil engineering discipline in 2nd year,My professor said me to prepare a report in which i have to ask some random questions about surveying to sewage/Drainage/watersupply surveying firms, i am preparing a question sheet , if anyone have some good questions to ask to a surveyor about sewage/watersupply surveys , please discuss

Thanks

I am looking to conduct a survey study in ~15-20 countries and hope to avoid surveying a disproportionately educated/privileged crowd. Any suggestions on cost-efficient survey platforms and distribution methods? Let me know, thank you.

Dear all,

we are preparing a multibeam survey on the Canary Islands and ask ourselves which GPS RTK service would allow for smooth operation near the south coast of Lanzarote. Fugro marine star is not accurate enough, we need a "real" RTK service providing positions in the centimeter accuracy level. Most preferentially we would like to catch the signals via mobile internet near the coastline via NTRIP. We would highly appreciate recommendations or shared experience for canary island surveying ;)

best regards Jens

Hi All,

This is to kindly request if anyone knows of possible questions I could get examples to use in a research project around quantity surveying, procurement and supply.

We are to launch online interviews and need to ask relevant questions around the difficulties stakeholders are facing around the above subject.

Any advice would be much appreciated

We need your help to evaluate a deep learning model for audio restoration. Please fill in this survey (it only takes 20 minutes) or share it with your network. https://lnkd.in/gYY-32P Thanks a lot.

I know that it detects radioactivity in the area by reading the concentrations of Uranium, Thorium and Potassium. So if it depends on the radioactivity of these 3 radioelements, can it be used to detect skarn deposits, even though some skarn deposits have low radioactivity

I am in the midst of surveying GC models to buy.One of the model offers technology that uses hydrogen or nitrogen instead of helium. This obviously will be cost saving but how about the reliability of results? Anyone can share experience handling similar model along with the challenges faced?

Hi!

For my master's thesis I'm surveying the community of users of MATLAB and similar languages (Octave, Scilab, Rlab, etc.). The main goal is to document the different ways these languages are being used and to gather opinions and feedback that the users might have about these languages and their features (such as object-orientation).

It doesn't matter if you're only a complete beginner or if you're an expert, your response helps the study! So if you could spare just a couple of minutes to participate, it would help us immensely.

The form is at: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfSpNzfo3Ux-Rn5BCq0efFm-bKaNv9o1S3KUAcKlC33MMdC7w/viewform?usp=sf_link

Additionally, if you have any feedback or any information that you think could be relevant for this study feel free to comment below.

Thank you! 

I am surveying current or former teachers (on the college level) especially among STEM faculty to determine their familiarity with a variety of teaching techniques.

I believe this survey will take 5-10 minutes of your time. Thank you!

Transect method of surveying vulture population is very common due perhaps to low cost incurring, although it runs the risk of poor selection of representative samples in varied landscapes, especially inaccessible areas of vulture abode, i.e., deep forests and difficult cliffs. On the other hand total count, although high resource consuming, covers the above sampling risk. What is your view on choosing one of these in your experience or knowledge?

Thanking you in advance

Currently, I am going to implement the surveying method in one of my research related to business units. Orbis database (of Company information across the globe | BvD) or similar would be useful for me to make a sample according to certain criteria and obtain contacts. My organization does not provide access to the Orbis Database. Maybe someone has access to this database and could provide me with data from it or recommend free alternatives?

Thank you in advance.

I'm working on my thesis, trying to estimate the population density using only capture-recapture data. This data was obtained by surveying the study area for almost three years nearly everyday.

I am confused on how to work with this though, as every single day has captures and recaptures, and don't really know how to limit an event from another one to use classic methods such as Lincoln-Peterson.

As such, I'd like some help working on how to precisely estimate this population size for two species, considering almost every day has either a capture or recapture.

Hello everyone,

I hope all are doing well.

I am a Ph.D. candidate, and I am working on a paper investigating the impact of Enterprise Social Networking (Yammer, Jive, Chatter, etc) on delivering professional and personal benefits in higher education. I am surveying to examine "what factors have a significant influence on Yammer use behavior" among researchers and academic staff at UK universities.

I would be grateful if you could help me with completing my survey, please. It takes less than four minutes to answer.

Hi all, I need everyone's instant attention on my query that usually which methodology specifically sampling method is used in web based survey method? My problem is that if I conduct a survey by Facebook then probably the data will biased because only limited types of friends circle I would have on my Facebook page so this will affect the data, therefore how to start a web based survey without baisness?? If I supposed to conduct the same survey on WhatsApp then also how I will get the mobile number of my representative populations?

Does someone have experience with recent use of thermal imaging to survey wild boars? Any equipment on might want or want to avoid?Any success stories or disaster stories?

Let's say there is a questionnaire in which some items are about peer relationships and some about romantic relationships. Consequently, participants who are not in a romantic relationship at the time of surveying are instructed to leave the 'romantic' items blank, thus creating missing data. Would you consider the data MNAR (missing not at random) or MAR (missing at random) in this particular case?

I am surveying multiple organizations to determine if they demonstrate certain characteristics. I have performance metrics for these organizations. I would like to see if there is a correlation between the characteristics in the organization and an increase or decrease in the performance metric. Can someone point me in the right direction on the statistical analysis I need to look into or provide an example research project that I can use as a model to start with?

Survey: 50+ questions on 1 5 point Likert Scale to 80+ participants (will collect from each organization)

Performance Metrics: For each of the 5 organizations, have a efficiency and effectiveness measure

I am trying to take CV tests using a simple three electrode setup in which I use GCE as counter and SCE as reference and my material on the surface of GCE as working electrodes, I also use 1M H2SO4 as electrolyte, I took the tests for ZIF-8 mixed with Nafion(binder) but the number I get for the capacitance from integration of CV curve and using calculations is 3.4*10^-2 F/g which I believe is very low,this is my first laboratory experience and I do not know in which part I am making mistake, does anyone have any recommendation?

I want to classify temporal satellite images through Artificial Neural Network (ANN) using ArcGIS Python in order to predict into future.

I am doing my Masters dissertation on the Development of a sport in a country while studying the behaviour and motivation of sports fans. I have chosen the mixed methods approach to collect my primary data where I am going to Interview the manager of the sport's governing body in that country at the same time surveying the fans in that country. I am not sure what to write in the Research Design and Research Philosophy sections of my methodology. What should my Research philosophy be and which Research design describes my project best?

Known are the length in a triangle ABC of a tetrahedron ABCD, i.e., also all angles between A, B and C are known. The position of D is, however, unknown, but the angles between all edges to D, i.e. between DA and DB, DA and DC and DB and DC, are known as well. Is it possible to determine the position of D, or do I need an additional information. If it is not unique, how many solutions exist?

I am wondering what would be an acceptable sample size when you are trying to survey a population that is hard to access, especially if you don't have access to data that indicate the size of that population in the first place. Thank you !

Presently, I am determining local geoid model of an area using the gravimetric-geometric method and I am sensing that there would be large differences between the known orthometric heights of selected points and the orthometric heights of the same points obtained from the local geoid model, someone should please tell me what to do in such situation.

I am presently working on local geoid model determination using gravimetric-geometric method. To obtain the gravity anomalies of chosen points, the points absolute gravity and their respective theoretical gravity must be obtained. Someone should please help me, I want to know if it is ideal to compute the theoretical/latitude gravity on WGS84 ellipsoid or it must be computed on the local ellipsoid adopted for geodetic computation in the area of study.

In general, the growth of the surveying and mapping businesses is driven by the state of economic development of a particular country. This growth should not be mixed or confused with the surveying practices and routine work of different government and private sectors such as the ones that support land registration, taxation, and construction activities. By growth we do mean a strong and new demands that go beyond the existing services to support the economic development. On the other hand, this argument of connection btween the growth of surveying and mapping business and the economic development may not be clear in developing countries. I do appreciate your feedback.

Dear All,

I am New in pathogen-related and disease-related resistance studies

Please help me to guide further...

I was surveying my polymorphic markers on Resistance x susceptible ( P1 x P2, F2) of my population. So I found on Chr. 8 one SSR MARKER very good segregation between parents, moreover, I pool my DNA samples of susceptible five F2 bulk samples to (BS1) and resistant five F2 samples to BS2. Below image shows my current findings. 1. Is it enough to be assume that this phatogen has partial resistance? 2. Do I need to order more markers on Chr 8 (near position) or better to focus on other chromosome and find the locations linked to the gene of interest? [

I'd very much appreciate your comments on my questioned issue

I would like to conduct a vegetation survey using the Braun-blanquet cover-abundance scale to get an insight into the composition of plants as a supplementary data to my research.

As my study area will include large coniferous forests and alpine forests, a transect will be too time-consuming and unfeasible to carry out.

My current sampling design is to divide my study areas into grid cells of 1km by 1km and do plots at the intersections. I'll have one central point at the intersection point of the grid and from there, do four plots of 20m radius each, in each compass direction.

Given that I have no priori information as to the landscape of my study area, will my sampling design work? Is there another more efficient way of surveying large forests?

I am online surveying workers from multi-sector businesses to determine which are the most influential individual and organizational factors that contribute to a worker's development of a shared group identity in the workplace.

I will first aggregate survey results to determine the most prevalent factors. The top 5 or 6 highest factors will then be used to compare with the workers' demographics, hierarchical status, and high or low level of perceived shared group identity reported.

Would this be a Cross-sectional Ex Post Facto or Correlational study?

Would the hypotheses appear the same for either since they both fall under Quasi-experimental?

I plan to do biodiversity screening of Iraqi desert , I gathering a lot of information and will be glad to team working with other researcher

For the effective management, one need to know the present status of that activity. For a precise waste management plan, what kind of survey is needed in the society.

I am preparing the questionnaire in likert type scale to measure many constructs from a single set of questionnaire. Now, my dilemma is, should I mix the items of different variable? Or should I keep items in groups stating corresponding variables. Please support me clarifying the consequences from data collected by (1) mixing the items of the different variables, (2) grouping the items under each corresponding variables. Thanking your support.

When surveying employers who may or may not recruit disabled people on their attitudes towards this group, what ethical issues should I be aware of?

This research will not involve interviewing or surveying any disabled people, just employers.

The purpose of this research study is to determine whether or not Physical Therapist’s (PT) feel that at home monitored exercise regimens will increase amputee compliance regarding prescribed rehabilitation programs. For this reason, we will be surveying certified Physical Therapist’s through online survey portals, asking them to complete a short 10-question survey. If you are willing to participate, our questionnaire will ask about, (age, gender, geographic work location) as well as years of certification, perception on the amputee population, and views on prescribed home based regimens. There are no foreseeable risks associated with this survey, and there is no benefit to you. This is entirely an anonymous questionnaire, and so your responses will not be identifiable in any way. All responses are confidential. Your participation is voluntary, and you may withdraw at any time. This study is being conducted by Tyler Berger, who can be reached at (517)-215-2616 or tjb113@pitt.edu, if you have any questions.

Moving with the current flow of digital technology, educators are expected to adopt similar trends in the classroom and this calls for a blended learning approach. My colleagues and I have actually adopted Kahoot! in our English Language courses and we have found it to be very motivating for students and it has the potential of reinforcing learning too. I'm surveying for further responses on Kahoot! use in the classroom.

As is well known and from theoretical proofs, proper weighting of the least squares solution of a leveling network is inversely proportion to the distances between the leveling points or the height difference between pairs of points. In other words, the uncertainties or the relative contribution of different observations in the least squares solution of the leveling networks are expressed in terms of distances. Sometimes the uncertainties of the existing control information are expressed in terms of their standard deviations, which were estimated from their previous dispersion or variance-covariance matrices. Although this type of expression or representation of uncertainties is very common, it makes the integration of the uncertainties of the existing control information to a new leveling network a non-trivial task. Now the question is:

Most of the paper authors have illuminated nano-structures with pulsed laser (wavelength:~nm range and pulse duration: ~ps range) to observe the scattering or extinction cross-section. 

I am working on my thesis in which I am surveying some users who are using the particular facility and then using AHP method to make paired comparison and can you please guide me how can we combine the responses from different users?

Thanks

Hi, I am Jenny. Now I do my Thesis Research about which software the QS use most in their company and the cost of that software. I hope your guys can give me some software's sample and the cost of that software. Thank You for your helping.

i am currently reviewing an proposal for this survey and i want to better know the best way to do the sample which be representative in national and regions levels. we have to measure indicators such as :

-Proportion of households with at least one ITN

-Proportion of households with a pregnant woman or children under 5 with at least one ITN

-Proportion of children under five years old who slept under an ITN the previous night

-Proportion of pregnant women who slept under an ITN the previous night

-Proportion of women who received intermittent preventive treatment during antenatal care (ANC) visits during their last pregnancy

i see this formula attached and i did not understand it well.

   

 Any suggestion is helpful for me.

Thank in advance

I am preparing a short article to explain the potential of entotechnologies to treat organic waste in the province of Québec, Canada. I have good documentation of environmental benefits, nutritional value of animal feed, legislation and policy issues, types of waste and volumes, as well as consumer perception (from a 700 respondents survey). I will also use early life cycle analysis results from North America and Europe. I would like to introduce production details to facilitate comparisons with composting or biomethanisation projects which are common in my province. I'd like to share ideas on production costs, operational process, scalability challenges, odour management, etc, to facilitate the understanding of waste management engineers and municipal authorities. As entotechnologies are emerging in different parts of the world, I'd like to provide useful and representative values to get the attention of waste management operators and governmental agencies involved in strategic planning.

I would like to use the Palmore's Facts on Aging Quiz for MSN students.  Does anyone know where to get permission to use this tool?

Please suggest Psychological Capital questionnaire or instrument for surveying, if possible please provide the same?

Thank you. 

Currently looking at finding a scale to  measure hopelessness.

Bachelor of Science in Geomatics Final Year Project. 

Hi I'm looking for broad research that looks at what parents and students expect from school and from teachers. Do they expect the school to make the students better people? prepare them for professional life? do they expect the teachers to be role models? do they expect emotional containment?

I want to conduct a reaearch without that typcal students sample and a broader variety of professions included. Does anyone have experience regarding response rate and representativity?

Hello every researcher here in this group. I am doing research in supply chain mangement. My question is that what should be the acceptable value of the kurtosis and skewness in primary survey? In papers and on google i came to know about the standard value of skewness and kurtosis based on normal distributed data, as we know that the primary data we collect is not normal data. so I want to know the acceptable region for skewness and kurtosis for applying SEM on the final data.

To investigate students' perception. 

I use 20 closed-ended questions (multiple choice and 5-likert scale) and the 5 qualitative question like open-ended questions in a survey.  

As I know survey could help me to gain data (even the perception, feelings) from the large number of students so that I can classify them according to the level of anxiety to conduct the in-depth interview further.  So, Is the survey as I've described called qualitative survey even it comprise theclosed-ended questions? and Does it mean that I am completely doing the qualitative research? 

 Hope to see your response!

We are planning to conduct a survey about employer attitudes about refugees (Syrians in Hatay, Turkey) and its consequences for labor market integration. We want to find out the factors that makes the employers hire refugees with legal work permissions and register them to social security agency. This will be my masters student's thesis. I would appreciate if you could recommend a starter book or paper which will lead us to core literature. Actually I think it would be very interesting to conduct a comparative study, too. So, we are also open for collaboration on this issue.

I am looking for information about using techniques other than typical surveying. I found publications about using airborne laser scanning, photogrammetry (also from UAV), but maybe there are some implemented solutions in program of monitoring of technical condition of levees. Links appreciated.

Hi, at NIHR DEC of Imperial College of London, we are running a service evalution study. A part of the evaluation consists of an online survey   (http://london.dec.nihr.ac.uk/survey/).

My target are clinicians and nurses (proficient in english from different countries) with experience in the use of pH strips. I am looking for any suggestion on how to do that efficently and effectivelly by a social networks or online groups? 

Are you awer of any dedicate online group/service for healthcare processionals that I can use to advertise?

In navigation we have 3 types of position accuracy: predictable, repeatable and relative.

Which type of accuracy should define the minimum requirements for positioning systems in various applications: maritime, air and land navigation?

All (according to my knowledge) GPS satellite planning software calculate satellite number and DOP's in one point (position). Do you know any software solution for constellation planning along the line (for example - 50 km of railroad) which is passed (for example - 5 hours)?

Where do you classify engineering surveying, for instance?

Could somebody please suggest some online Journals relating to Geodesy?

Thanks for your suggestions.
