On my way to London for #MASS25. Excited for two days of discussions on Mobile Apps and Sensors in Surveys. Shoutout to my fantastic co-organizers (for the 6th (!) time) @peterlugtig.bsky.social, @jkhoehne.bsky.social, Bella Struminskaya and generous local host @patricksturg.bsky.social

Share of different devices in the GIP. In the first GIP wave in September 2012, only about 4% of participants used a smartphone, while approximately 94% completed the survey on a computer. In the most recent 76th wave (March 2025), 49% of respondents used a smartphone, compared to 48% who used a computer. Tablets have always played a minor role: their share was 2% in wave 1 and was 3% in wave 76.

For the first time, more respondents completed the GIP survey (76th wave, March 2025) on a smartphone than on a computer. A notable shift in response behavior! #SurveyResearch #GIP

Thanks for advertising our research! Open answers coupled with machine learning is a good way to detect LLM bots. Prompt injections work too..

🚨 New article in @pvs-journal.bsky.social!
We (@conradziller.bsky.social , @paulvierus.bsky.social, @jkhoehne.bsky.social) tracked students in political science methods courses and found a strong effect of statistics anxiety on satisfaction and grades.
