Open-source social Network Assessment Survey System (NASS)

Abstract

The selection of targeted survey questions and the design of survey questionnaires are instrumental in the social networks research. With the accelerating growth of theory and experimental knowledge in the area of social network analysis, there is a need for a centralized questionnaire database system for the collection and appropriate utilization of these questions and feedbacks used for social networks research. Our project aims to provide a content-driven back-end database system and an online user interface to assist researchers to make intelligent selection of survey questions and design of questionnaires based on current area-specific knowledge within social network analysis.
