Web Survey Bibliography
The Generalized System, called GINO++, allows the researcher himself to:
- design and implement web questionnaires independently and quickly through graphical interface;
- accompany the questions by hints and tool tip;
- include checks on the data entered;
- monitor the progress of the survey in real-time.
The final user (survey respondent) is able to:
- complete the questionnaire in multiple s by saving each time and by sending only at the end of compiling;
- make local prints (html or excel) of the questionnaire;
- insert notes for each individual variable (if provided by the researcher during design);
- include the sources of each question (if provided by the researcher during design).
Whenever the respondent saves the entered data, they are directly inserted on tables of a DB Oracle generated by the application with a user-defined name.
GINO++ features two main areas:
1. Management and design of questionnaires and metadata
In this area it is possible to:
- Create surveys;
- Define survey respondents;
- Design the final layout of the questionnaire (one/multiple web pages, numbering, …);
- Define each variable (data type, y/n time series with charts, …);
- Insert some types of hard or soft rules;
- Enable controlled upload/download from/to file of a part or all questionnaire;
- Handle of dynamic “modules” (repeating sections).
2. Monitoring the survey
In this area you can:
- Check the registration status of internal users (owners of survey) and final users (survey respondent);
- Monitor the status of each questionnaire;
- Analyze some reports of the summary;
- Send emails.
