- 55. Social Media in Research Design For many, Facebook, Twitter, online communities and the like are virtual fountains overflowing with consumer content just waiting for researchers with their buckets to scoop up every juicy detail. As someone recently put it, “[Social media] provides a gold mine of information just a click away.” http://researchdesignreview.com/category/research-design-methods/social-media-research-design-methods/

- 57. Role of Social Media in Research • Social Media is not just about networking with friends and family • used to increase awareness / research purposes • Knowing your target research sample / population
- 58. Impact of Social Media on Research • One of the healthy outcomes from the rise of social media and mobile research is that it has brought to the forefront the issue of the balance of power – or control – in research balance of power design. • Method specialists who are proponents of social media or mobile research often assert that a big advantage of these approaches is that the participant, not the researcher, controls what is shared or not shared. • Qualitative researchers, for example, have discovered the value of PINTEREST where, without any researcher involvement, they surmise the hobbies and characteristics of individuals that represent some segment of the population. • And a mobile qualitative research study empowers the participant to select when, where, and how (in what format) information is provided to the researcher. • The researcher may start with a few basic questions but it is the research participant (knowingly or not) who controls the input. http://researchdesignreview.com/category/research-design-methods/socialmedia-research-design-methods/
- 60. Research and Pinterest • Projective techniques come in a variety of flavors – collage, personification, bubble drawing, role playing, etc. – there is also guided imagery, picture sorts, sentence completion, tarot cards, and more. • The types of projective techniques used by researchers has grown over the years (and continues to grow), primarily because many researchers believe that there is no limit to what is acceptable as a projective technique, and online resources such as Pinterest have broadened the projective possibilities. http://researchdesignreview.com/category/research-design-methods/projective-techniques/

From “Marketing Research” to “Marketing Information” in 2020 The continued growth in technology will result in the “digitization of everything” which will result in a “paradigm shift” in marketing research tools and techniques. And in 10 years the “leading-edge companies will address 80% of their marketing issues by ‘fishing the river’ of information.” Fishing, as in mining clicks, blogs, communities, videos, anything and anywhere people virtually connect. …Ian Lewis http://researchdesignreview.com/category/research-design-methods/social-media-research-design-methods/

Changing Research Communication • Essentially, social media has changed research communication from presentation to CONVERSATION. • Cranston: “This increasing emphasis on two way communication and conversation has transformed organisational communications and is crucial to effective online knowledge sharing.” https://www.gov.uk/government/news/dfid-research-research-stories-response-and-social-media
- 78. Quick Sharing of knowledge • Harnessing the knowledge sharing capacity of an existing community (such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn) opens new routes of access. • Evidence travels via existing networks so that the burden of communication no longer hangs solely on journal publication and distribution. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/dfid-research-research-stories-response-and-social-media
- 79. medium shapes the message • The DFID research twitter community has over 10,000 followers. While DFID research tweets directly to its followers daily, the real power lies in the retweets.
- 81. But the story has changed • Social media has altered the traditional parameters of storytelling. • Now, a story can consist of only a few words or just an image. • Linked data and online materials mean that communication need only begin the story; it directs the audience to wear the evidence can be found. • It lets the existing conversation develop and tell the story. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/dfid-research-research-stories-response-and-social-media
- 82. Reaching Audiences • With the emergence of younger platforms, such as Google+ and Pinterest, it is becoming steadily easier for researchers to reach audiences in innovative and engaging ways. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/dfid-research-research-stories-response-and-social-media
