Study design and sampling Sample Clauses

Study design and sampling. Given the different levels of methodological sophistication of available recording sys- tems, there are several options for designing a large-scale naturalistic study. Briefly, the following alternative approaches can be differentiated: • A study with the most advanced level of equipment and a large to moderate rep- resentative sample of drivers/vehicles. • A study with less advanced equipment and a larger sample of drivers/vehicles. • A study with basic driving parameters only and a very large sample of drivers us- ing, for example, Smartphone technology. • A series of smaller independent studies tailored to different research questions. • A multi-level study with a very large total sample and different levels of equip- ment for different sub-samples. From a cost-effectiveness point of view, the latter alternative seems to be the most re- alistic one. Sampling of drivers and vehicles has to be based on the research questions to be in- vestigated. However, it is recommended to design a large-scale study in such a way that it allows for investigating post hoc research questions in addition to pre-defined questions. Therefore, a combination of a large random sample and targeted samples for specific questions is recommended. If the study is supposed to be used for identify- ing crash predictors, a very large sample of drivers/vehicles and/or a long duration of the study is necessary, yielding a total exposure of several million vehicle kilometres.
