Abstract
Developing Internet survey systems can be seen as a fusion of social science and information systems. An experimental Internet survey used in this paper will be discussed herein with regard to the methodology of Internet surveys based on social science, and electronic survey systems based on information science. Specifically, the sampling method used for the Internet survey will be explained first, then the manner in which data about the sample were collected and analyzed. Next, an outline will be given of the Internet- based questionnaire system and its manner of construction. Finally, two proposals will be made, based on the results of this study's experiment, regarding the conduct of Internet surveys.Keywords
