WebSurvey CAPI Suite
Overview
The WebDesigner, WebSurvey, and Web Investigator packages are a suite of sophisticated programs that reduce a CAPI interview to a fairly simple set of rules, and when combined, they can generate and conduct large, complex interviews. The WebDesigner controls the authoring process and the WebSurvey reads the WebDesigner records, links to the data files produced by the WebDesigner, and controls the processes related to data collection.
WebDesigner
Design begins with an understanding of the questionnaire and how you conduct your research. If it is determined that a questionnaire is to be imported into WebDesigner, great care goes into the planning of your objectives, entering your questions, testing, and simulating the questionnaire. The WebDesigner allows us to easily import your existing questionnaire regardless of what programming language your questionnaire was written in. If your questionnaire exists in an electronic format CHRR can also import the questions easily into the WebDesigner.
The Center has further extended the use of CAPI technology by including an audio computer-assisted self-interview to collect sensitive data. The respondents can choose to read the questionnaire from the computer screen or use earphones to listen to the questions as they appear on the screen. A replacement for the paper self-administered questionnaire, the audio version improves response quality by reducing entry errors, permitting more complex questionnaire design, and minimizing errors due to respondent literacy problems.
At CHRR, the WebDesigner is viewed as more than a field technology. We see it as an opportunity to more closely link the steps before and after the field effort with the actual collection of data.

WebSurvey
While the WebDesigner controls the authoring process, the WebSurvey reads the instrument records, links to the data files produced by the WebDesigner, and controls the processes related to data collection. The WebSurvey differs from other interviewing systems in that the instrument and all the data reside on a central server in Columbus, Ohio. The server sends your computer each question and stores the data you enter. The data going back and forth is encrypted employing the same methods used with credit card information when products are purchased over the Web. This means no sensitive data is stored on the PC.
Post-processing is a process that runs after a case is completed to clean up the answer file. Our approach makes it possible for survey specialists to design, simulate, debug and test a survey rather than relying on computer programmers. Because the discipline of CAPI produces high-quality data, labor-intensive efforts to edit and clean the data and to retrieve missing items are no longer necessary.

WebInvestigator
To assist users in accessing data from large longitudinal data sets, the Center's computing staff merged electronic documentation files with data from each cohort and developed online search and retrieval software. This software allows users to easily peruse the variables present for a given cohort or dataset, select variables of interest, and create ASCII extract files. The data and documentation files for all surveys are also available on CD-ROM.

DialVision®
The Moonfire Corporation is based in Mead, Colorado. Known for its Web-based DialVision® system, it includes a wide range of contact information management features. DialVision® is set up to provide the needed technology to manage large pools of cases efficiently in a centralized design with interviewers working from remote locations.
This product provides users with inbound and outbound telephone campaign management tools. It includes call progress analysis, inbound call capture, automatic number identification, and other features.
Recording Archive Browser
The Recording Archive Browser is a web-based software application that allows users to locate, organize, annotate, and listen to recorded telephone-based interviews. With over half a million recordings to sort through, the Recording Archive Browser lets users quickly find the relevant calls by means of its powerful yet intuitive set of filters. Recordings can be located by case ID, current disposition, date, duration, or any number of semantic tags.
WebTranslator
Recognizing a need for surveys to be conducted in other languages we have also added a WebTranslator. Translators around the world can now access the translation portion of the questionnaire. A set of tools has been made available to translators so they can easily keep up with the designer running diagnostics which identify new questions added or changes in the text in whatever the primary language may be.
