DFG Project

Integrating data donations in survey infrastructure 

The DFG-project “Integrating Data Donation in Survey Infrastructure: Quantifying, Explaining, and Addressing Errors in Representation & Measurement ” advances the integration of data donation in survey infrastructure. 

Our project combines different disciplines (data science, statistics, communication research, & sociology) to  improve access to digital trace data. We (1) quantify errors in representation and measurement and (2) expand survey design and statistical methods to address these.

We are part of the SPP New Data Spaces in the Social Sciences.
