>I was pleased to see this question posed to the group. I've been doing research utilizing a web-based national survey, offering a $25 Amazon.com electronic gift code upon completion. The only identifying information respondents are asked to actively provide us is their email address for receipt of the code. We do not use "panels" of participants. We do not screen them by telephone. We do not have prior email exchanges with assignment of unique ID codes.
>
>I completed what I believe to be an overly exhaustive lit review, contacted others around the country doing similar work, etc. I continue to hear of researchers landing big grants after throwing around Facebook/Twitter-like buzz language, they collect data, and then cannot publish their results and analyses because journal editors now ask, "How can you explain that you were able to establish the 'uniqueness' of each respondent as an individual rather than a repeat responder?" In other words, can you validate your data as being a sample of 100 individuals versus one person who responded 100 times with junk data?
>
>We learned the web survey service to which we subscribe has the ability to gather a number of what I call "paradata" about the survey site visitors. 
>
>I revised the welcome page of the survey to include a privacy statement informing the research subject that if they continue with the survey by proceeding to the next page, their IP address, GeoIP information, web browser UserAgent string, site referrer, etc. will be collected.
>
>After the survey's initial screening questions, if the respondent qualifies, they are presented with an electronic informed consent document. The consent form explains in very basic language that anyone who access the survey by altering their internet connection in any way that might obscure or misrepresent their online presence will be deemed ineligible. We went several rounds with this back and forth with our IRB on this. In the end, they were quite pleased and have begun referring other researchers my way who struggle with similar issues.
>
>Our primary problem was this: the web survey could block duplicate respondents based on IP address as well as using cookies. However, we were taken aback at the huge number of proxy users --- some individuals took the survey over 30 times in less than a day, providing 30 different email addresses!
>
>After implementing the privacy page and revising the consent form, I created an algorithm for weeding out the vast majority of proxy users, in addition to people who know they can simply unplug their cable modem for a few hours, plug it back in, and be re-assigned a new dynamic IP from their ISP. Aside from the high prevalence of "cheaters," I found a wide range of sophistication and motivations behind the techniques people used. For example, there is "marketing" (aka spam) software that can auto-generate a few dozen free email accounts with the press of a button, even configuring them all to forward to the same address, and each of them sounding reasonably realistic like "johndoe631 at gmail.com." There are web sites selling subscriptions to "professional survey takers." The customer subscribes, and the web site gives them a list of surveys scraped from search engines, offering some kind of reward or incentive. I believe one of the sites was something like "swagbucks.com."
>
>I've written an article that serves as a methods paper to describe and outline this process of eliminating false data, validating research subjects, and study design that allows for the ability to ethically disqualify those who complete surveys over and over. It had the potential to drain our study's budget and leave us with nothing we could use., I included a case study of how we worked with our IRB in responding to someone who actually complained and demanded their incentive after taking the survey 15 times. It's a tricky game, substantiating their ineligibility and deception without teaching them how they were detected and prompting them to find other security vulnerabilities. The article focuses on the  more technical aspects of the process, judgment calls, and the algorithm --- not just a simple statistical formula. In summary, I suggest Internet researchers must begin to think like hackers, which I happen to be. In the process of polishing the paper to submit for public
> ation, I'm struggling with what journals I want to target. The survey itself is related to HIV and cancer, so I could go that route, something methodological, or techie, or more obscure like "The Journal of Medical Internet Research," and so on.
>
>I'm working on a second paper that addresses the many ethical aspects and considerations for collecting data from Internet research subjects, sometimes without their knowledge or consent, for purposes of data validity. For example, IP addresses are among the list of HIPAA-defined identifiers of personal health information.

>Any suggestions for publication submission, or how to better frame the piece within a particular discipline or field of study, would be greatly appreciated.

>The Problem
>Authors increasingly cite webpages and other digital objects on the Internet, which can "disappear" overnight. In one study published in the journal Science, 13% of Internet references in scholarly articles were inactive after only 27 months. Another problem is that cited webpages may change, so that readers see something different than what the citing author saw. The problem of unstable webcitations and the lack of routine digital preservation of cited digital objects has been referred to as an issue "calling for an immediate response" by publishers and authors [1].
>
>An increasing number of editors and publishers ask that authors, when they cite a webpage, make a local copy of the cited webpage/webmaterial, and archive the cited URL in a system like WebCite?, to enable readers permanent access to the cited material.
>
>What is WebCite??
>WebCite?, which used to be a member of member of the International Internet Preservation Consortium, is an on-demand archiving system for webreferences (cited webpages and websites, or other kinds of Internet-accessible digital objects), which can be used by authors, editors, and publishers of scholarly papers and books, to ensure that cited webmaterial will remain available to readers in the future. If cited webreferences in journal articles, books etc. are not archived, future readers may encounter a "404 File Not Found" error when clicking on a cited URL. Try it! Archive a URL here. It's free and takes only 30 seconds.
>
>A WebCite?-enhanced reference is a reference which contains - in addition to the original live URL (which can and probably will disappear in the future, or its content may change) - a link to an archived copy of the material, exactly as the citing author saw it when he accessed the cited material.
