Clustering Twitter Users into Demo-definable Groups | RBDR

July 19, 2017. Today on RBDR:

1) Penn State researchers are studying how to make demographic sense of Twitter users in groups so that these can be sliced and iced demographically.

2) MarketResearchCareer’s annual supplier study is out and we zero in on the choices of 3,200 respondents in Thought Leadership, Unique Methodologies, and Quality Deliverables among full-service agencies, qualitative agencies, syndicated providers, online sample and online survey software.

This week’s RBDR is sponsored by the industry expertise of Socratic Technologies. You can take advantage of Socratic’s work that has led to developed insights in varied areas of research. Chairman Bill MacElroy has recently prepared papers for the Market Research Institute International on topics, including “engagement gamification” at no cost.

Today: 1) Gallup’s survey of influence of social media on American consumer purchases draws fire for age of the information and how evaluation was conducted. 2) MarketResearchCareer.com’s 9th Annual Survey of MR Professionals throws kudos at many different companies. 3) Pages views, unique visitors and clicks have been widely discredited as digital metrics, so two organizations have their own metric theories. Both are built on the premise of “time spent,” but that isn’t gathering full buy-in either.
