Overview of the Task<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>In this assignment, you will create a quantitative research proposal that implements a survey<\/span>
to explore actors’ attitudes and perceptions on the topic of surveillance.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>The proposal focuses on defining the research question, proposing empirically testable<\/span>
research hypotheses, and defining the measurement of the key concepts.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>The proposal is also concerned with the survey research design, including sampling strategy,<\/span>
ethical considerations, and approaches to data management.<\/span>
Task Specifications<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Define a feasible<\/span> <\/span>research question<\/span> <\/span>and identify at least three<\/span> <\/span>key concepts<\/span> <\/span>of your research.<\/span>
o<\/span> <\/span>Propose a research question and explain why it is worth studying it via a survey.<\/span>
Conduct a literature review and identify at least three concepts that are relevant to<\/span>
your study. Highlight some of the relevant empirical findings related to these<\/span>
concepts.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Propose at least two testable<\/span> <\/span>research hypotheses<\/span>.<\/span>
o<\/span> <\/span>Engage with previous empirical results and literature on your research question and<\/span>
make sure that your hypotheses have not already been answered but are in line with<\/span>
existing research. An example for this would be surveying a new target population or<\/span>
a hypothesis resulting from findings in the extant literature. The hypotheses should<\/span>
be testable though.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Identify how the key concepts of your research<\/span> <\/span>will be measured<\/span> <\/span>in the survey.<\/span>
o<\/span> <\/span>Find examples of the operationalization of concepts in the literature and explain,<\/span>
which type of measurement you take on board in your proposal and why. How did<\/span>
the authors ensure that their measurement was valid and reliable? What are the<\/span>
limitations of the scales that were implemented in the previous literature? Note that<\/span>
the measurement of each concept identified in your proposal should be clearly<\/span>
stated and justified.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Describe and justify the<\/span> <\/span>survey research design<\/span>.<\/span>
o<\/span> <\/span>Is your survey going to be cross-sectional or longitudinal? Will it be cross-national or<\/span>
involving only one country? Which mode of data collection (e.g. online, face-to-face,<\/span>
phone) will you be using and why? Justify your choices.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Describe and justify the<\/span> <\/span>sampling strategy<\/span>.<\/span>
o<\/span> <\/span>How do you define your general population and the sampling frame? Who is your<\/span>
primary unit of observation (e.g. individual, household, company)? Are you aiming<\/span>
for a probability or a non-probability sample? What would be your sampling<\/span>
technique (e.g., stratified, cluster, quota, snowball sampling)?<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Discuss the<\/span> <\/span>ethical guidelines<\/span> <\/span>for the survey.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

human participants and how would you ensure that they are met in your survey?<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Describe the<\/span> <\/span>data management principles<\/span> <\/span>related to your survey (e.g., data storage,<\/span>
information protection).<\/span>
Assessment Criteria<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Word length of approximately 2,000 words (+10%), including footnotes but excluding<\/span>
bibliography.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Correct language; properly structured and sound argument.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Accurate embedding of the research question and hypotheses in the relevant literature.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Clear description and embedding of relevant concepts in the empirical literature.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Valid representation and operationalization of concepts into measures (variables) by relying<\/span>
on relevant literature.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Accurate usage of appropriate concepts and ideas from the survey research methodology<\/span>
discussed in the course literature and lectures.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Critical reflection on the benefits and limitations of various aspects of the survey research<\/span>
design.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Correct references of relevant academic sources, e.g. textbooks and research articles.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>You are allowed to use a topic, close to your project topic, but make sure not to copy<\/span>
material and ideas from your group report. This would count as plagiarism.<\/span>
Learning Objectives<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Contrast the data-driven and theory-driven approaches to the empirical cycle.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Propose research questions and hypotheses for empirical studies on the basis of existing<\/span>
research derived from a literature review.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Assess and interpret the reliability of survey scales by referring to the adequate (statistical)<\/span>
methods.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Decide on the design of the research project using survey\/questionnaire as a quantitative<\/span>
method<\/span>.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Identify the risk of sampling bias in participant recruitment and its potential influence on<\/span>
research results.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Apply scientific integrity principles to research designs involving human participants.<\/span>
\u2022<\/span> <\/span>Apply good data management principles to research designs involving human participant<\/span><\/div>\n
