Methodology: Fieldwork Styles
Today, we discussed the finer points of conducting sleep studies in the field. We established that:
- We will be using a combination of participant observation and survey methods.
- We will be employing a standardized sleep diary to collect data.
- We will be using a custom-built sleep tracking app to monitor participant sleep patterns.
Key takeaways:
- The importance of establishing trust with our participants.
- The need for standardized data collection methods.
- The potential for sleep tracking app fatigue.
