[Air-L] Reliable "academic" online research panel company

[Amanda Lenhart]

Hi Kyun,

There are a bunch of good online panels based in the US. Whether they meet your standard for cost-effectiveness, I can't say - you'll need to reach out to them and see what they can do. I have not personally used these online panels, but I have worked with or talked with researchers at both of the orgs below.

Harris Interactive is a very well-regarded research org that has a robust online panel and they may have an omnibus survey you could put some questions on if you couldn't do a whole survey. I know a number of academics who have used them.

KnowledgeNetworks does address-based sampling that they then convert to an online panel.

There are others out there too - however the others I am most familiar with focus on youth or telephone implementation and I suspect that you're probably looking for adults, given IRB concerns about research with minors.

Best,
Amanda

Hi! All,

Please help me to find some good online research panel firms based in US.
I mean reliable and cost-effective by saying good (: I have been looking for
them, but my search has not been productive. If possible, I would like know
more academic-oriented firms than market research panels. Some of them
may do both. I would be grateful for your sharing of  experience and
information. You can email me at kyun4zzing at gmail.com.

Thank you for your inputs in advance.

Kyun Soo
