In my opinion,the area of greatest opportunity is digital field experiments.
Thus, these partially digital field experiments were run at a massive scale at low variable cost.
This set of experiments also illustrates two more general points about partially digital field experiments.
Thus, these partially digital field experiments were run at a massive scale at low variable cost.
First, whereas most analog lab andfield experiments have hundreds of participants, digital field experiments can have millions of participants.
Finally, digital field experiments magnify the ethical concerns created by field experiments. .
Second, this set of experiments reminds us that digital field experiments are not just online;
While digital field experiments offer many possibilities, they also share some weaknesses with both analog lab and field experiments. .
Lab experiments offer control,field experiments offer realism, and digital field experiments combine control and realism at scale.
There are two particular features of Emotional Contagion that make concern with excessive size appropriate, andthese features are shared by many digital field experiments.
One of the most ethically debated digital field experiments is"Emotional Contagion," which was conducted by Adam Kramer, Jamie Gillroy, and Jeffrey Hancock 2014.
First, whereas most analog lab andfield experiments have hundreds of participants, digital field experiments can have millions of participants.
Further, I will argue that digital field experiments can offer the best features of analog lab experiments(tight control) and analog field experiments(realism), all at a scale that was not possible previously.
There are two particular features of Emotional Contagion that make concern with excessive size appropriate, andthese features are shared by many digital field experiments.
Together, these two examples show that researchers can conduct digital field experiments without the need to partner with companies or build complex digital systems.
Third, whereas many analog lab and field experiments deliver treatments andmeasure outcomes in a relatively compressed amount of time, some digital field experiments happen over much longer timescales.
Another example that shows the ability of researchers to conduct digital field experiments in existing systems is the research by Arnout van de Rijt and colleagues(2014) on the keys to success.
On the other hand, issues of construct validity will probably be more challenging in digital-age experiments, especially digital field experiments that involve partnerships with companies.
Further, I will argue that digital field experiments can offer the best features of analog lab experiments(tight control) and analog field experiments(realism), all at a scale that was not possible previously.
In order to illustrate these three concepts in action,I will describe a number of follow-up partially digital field experiments that built on the elegant design and exciting results in Schultz et al.
Further, in addition to possible harms to participants, digital field experiments, because of their scale, can also raise concerns about the disruption of working social systems e.g., concerns about disrupting Wikipedia's reward system if Restivo and van der Rijt gave too many barnstars.
In addition to this combination of good characteristics of earlier experiments, digital field experiments also offer three opportunities that were difficult in analog lab and field experiments. .
Together, these two examples show that researchers can conduct digital field experiments without the need to partner with companies or the need to build complex digital systems.
In order to illustrate these three concepts in action, I will describe a number of follow-up partially digital field experiments that built on the elegant design and exciting results of Schultz and colleagues 2007.
Second, whereas most analog lab andfield experiments treat participants as indistinguishable widgets, digital field experiments often use background information about participants in the design and analysis stages of the research.
For example, a researcher at Facebook has much more pre-treatment information about people in her digital field experiment than a university researcher has about the people in her analog field experiment. .
Logistically, the easiest way to do digital experiments is to overlay your experiment on top of an existing environment,enabling you to run a digital field experiment.
For example, Centola(2010) built a digital field experiment to study the effect of social network structure on the spread of behavior.
In their digital field experiment, Doleac and Stein were able to create an attractive hybrid.
On the other hand, for the digital field experiment of Restivo and van de Rijt(2012) on the effect of awards on Wikipedia editors, researchers could add more participants at virtually no cost.
