    Mobilise! Incorporating Mobile Phones in Social and Policy-oriented Surveys ALEC M GALLUP FUTURE OF 1SURVEY RESEARCH FORUM 14 October, 2009 Hôtel Solvay 224 Avenue Louise 1050 Brussels % Dear Attendee, Mobile phones have had a remarkable impact on the world in a relatively short period of time. In all surveys, the overriding consideration is to reach all members of the public, young or old, male or female, employed or self- employed. In the nineties, fixed-line telephone coverage reached almost saturation point, but times are changing. In Europe, countries such as Finland and the Czech Republic now have a majority of citizens who are "mobile-only". Furthermore, as mobile phone ownership and usage is currently higher among certain groups, such as younger members of the population, the potential arises for mobile-phone non- coverage bias. This was a topic widely debated during the 2004 US Presidential election. Further discussion and research on the topic is vital. That's why Gallup has brought together the world's leading experts to thrash out issues that will undoubtedly impact the future of social research. Earlier this year, we were saddened by the death of Alec Gallup, a consummate polling professional who served the company for 60 years. If he was still with us, he would be watching the increase of the mobile-phone population with interest. Alec Gallup understood polling from A to Z and he knew that that the future of survey research depended on methodologies that would continue to give an equal opportunity of being polled … to all members of the public Bi-annual series of seminars: Future of Surveys We would therefore like to welcome you to "The 1st Alec Gallup Future of Survey Research Forum: Incorporating Mobile Phones in Social and Policy-oriented Surveys.

  • Management of COVID-19 Measures
    ESOMAR Statement: The role of Data, Research and Insights community in supporting global crisis and post-crisis management of Covid19 measures. Key recommendations to facilitate access and dissemination of our expertise Research has always been the cornerstone of informed decisions; why not lean on that expertise now and ensure evidence-based decision making and accelerate the termination of the crisis and the recovery post-crisis? For these reasons, ESOMAR is calling upon business leaders who commission research, national government leaders, international bodies, and the business community to take these following steps: 1. Maintain the current levels of funding and reallocate research spend to help improve our knowledge and evidence-base on Covid-19 related measures; 2. Enact government funding programmes to specifically support collaboration on Covid-19 thematic research for the general interest; 3. Issue immediately calls for tender to conduct comprehensive and wide-ranging social research by researchers that abide to the principles of accepted codes of conduct governing market, opinion, and social research; 4. Support our measures to collate and disseminate research expertise for the general public interest; 5. Establish multi-disciplinary research expert groups composed of academics, private experts and government representatives to provide up-to-date research expertise on the impact of the crisis and to support communication efforts both during and after the crisis has passed; 6. Work with these expert groups to evaluate and use the insights to inform government strategies moving forward. The research community stands ready to act in support of the general public interest. Page 2 A unique context, a watershed moment Our world is currently facing a watershed on the immediate crisis management moment.

The present research addresses experimental design for separating focal EEG effect of HD- tDCS in the ‘4-cathode  1-anode’ (4  1) montage over the left motor area (C3). We assessed change in offline EEG at the homologous central (C3, C4), and occipital (O1, O2) locations. Interhemispheric asymmetry was accessed for background EEG at standard frequency bands; and for the intermittent photic stimulation (IPS). EEG was compared post- vs pre-intervention in three HD-tDCS arms: Active (2 mA), Sham (ramp up/down at the start and end), and No-Stimulation (device was not powered), each intervention lasting 20 min.
