Congrats!!
Why may offline population inclusion via internet equipment not make a difference for survey outcomes? Our thoughts:
a) offline population is just too small to make a difference
b) "true" non-internet users are unwilling to be equipped
c) recruited offliners turn into onliners

Innovation Panel Competition 2023
Have you got a research idea, but need certain data to carry out your work? Are you a researcher wanting to develop an experimental or methodological element? The @usociety Innovation Panel could help you. https://www.understandingsociety.ac.uk/innovation-panel-competition
In case you missed it! Take a look at Mark Trappmann, Georg-Christoph Haas, Sonja Malich, Florian Keusch, Sebastian Bähr, Frauke Kreuter & Stefan Schwarz on "Augmenting survey data with digital trace data: Is there a threat to panel retention?"
"Fears of decreased panel retention, held by many panel providers, are not unjustified, however the effects we observed leveled off over time."

We looked at > 100 papers on flaws of specific predictive optimization applications. Seven recurring clusters emerged. Given the technical architecture of predictive optimization (vs other forms of automated decision making) we show that this is exactly what we should expect. That made us ask: does *every* predictive optimization application have these flaws? We picked 8 case studies based on prevalence and impact on people. Among these, the answer seems to be yes. https://predictive-optimization.cs.princeton.edu/

It's International Love Data Week!
JSSAM loves data that state if a study has been preregistered. When submitting to JSSAM, authors using empirical data should include a statement in the acknowledgements about whether the study or analysis plan was preregistered.
