?:abstract
  • In this guide, we discuss why collecting data from online platforms that are accessible through the internet is important to researchers. This is followed by an overview of web data collection methods, explaining how these methods differ and pointing to their advan- tages and disadvantages. We also provide criteria on how to decide which data collection method should be used for a certain task, and briefly touch on data quality aspects and legal considerations, which are essential to be clarified before collecting online data. This guide is written for readers who want to get a first overview of possible data collection approaches and have to decide which methods might be best suited for their project. (de)
