What SocSurveys.org has to offer
SocSurveys.org has been designed from the beginning not only to streamline the process of developing and conducting surveys for sociological research, but to bring new possibilities to the table that weren't possible before the advent of modern computers. SocSurveys.org is here because better sociological research means a better understanding of the world we live in.
Find More Obscure Correlations
As a trusted third party, one of the most innovative features we offer is the an automated computer system which can search for disparate correlations that would probably have never been uncovered before. When correlations are discovered, relevant parties are put simply put into contact with each other. By conducting your survey with SocSurveys.org, you'll be connecting your data with the data of many other research teams in a way that reaps all the rewards of pooling your resources, but has none of the detrimental effects of losing control of your proprietary data. All of this can, of course, be opted out of, if you're afraid the computer will reveal your secrets.
Incentivize Your Survey
Another great feature we offer is a feature that manifests itself in the coupling of a system designed to make survey-design easy and fast with a system which records how long other participants' have taken to complete a survey so that an extremely accurate figure can be delivered to those considering taking it. What results is a feature for any researcher whose target audience may have taken surveys in the past. For such researchers, we offer a very unique incentive system. By incorporating our standardized question batteries for assessing commonly asked information from survey participants (such as political and religious affiliation, and age and racial demographic, for example) the estimated time-to-complete figure that is delivered to previous SocSurveys.org survey participants will include accurate, dynamically calculated deductions for each standardized question battery included in your survey. As always at SocSurveys.org, we put research first: survey designers who choose to include our standardized question batteries can also choose how recent they want the information to be.
Worried that your audience's employment characteristics have changed in the past 6 months? Limit it to three months. Pretty sure the age, race, and gender of your survey participants hasn't changed in the past year? Instant incentive: deduct 2 minutes from the survey's time-to-complete.
In the future we also hope to provide more run-of-the-mill incentive programs for survey participants.
Promote Your Survey
With SocSurveys.org, it's easy to purchase promotional advertisements to attract more takers to your survey.
