"Use the most innovative technology available that fits the task" ? One rarely uses the most innovative technology available to establish a model. In fact, one generally would use the most well established platform since the most innovative typically tend to be less proven, and therefore lack credi...

Hello everyone, Sorry I took so long to respond to this. Before we consider whether or not to implement what Jacob is recommending regarding limiting the number of questions or increasing our population reach based on the formula he is proposing, I think we need to step back and consider why the com...

I wish the committee address this issue since we do live in a constantly evolving technological environment... This was not the principle under which this committee was proposed for.

But it will take some web scripting. Basically, if we were to create several different versions of the ...

Hope all is well!

Hey Joy, Thought I'd respond since Jacob had turned the survey over to me a while ago and I've been working on refining it for a while now.
