Besides the text mining [18] or streaming data mining [19] approaches to social media analysis, computerized argument Delphi is proposed as an alternative to gather structured data in order to understand the opinion of the crowd.

The Delphi Technique: A Research Strategy for Career and Technical Education

Stitt-Gohdes University of Georgia Tena B. Crews University of South Carolina Career and technical education research often centers around quantitative research designs. The Delphi Technique provides a structured communication process designed to produce a detailed examination of a topic and/or problem and discussion from the participating group. Research literature in career and technical education is replete with studies using survey research as a means of seeking answers to any number of different questions. Survey research was first used in 1790 with the first U.S. It would be relatively simple to ask a sample of the appropriate population their opinion about topic X.

It is a flexible research technique that has been successfully used in our program at the University of Calgary to explore new concepts within and outside of the information systems body of knowledge. The Delphi method is an iterative process to collect and distill the anonymous judgments of experts using a series of data collection and analysis techniques interspersed with feedback. The Delphi method is well suited as a research instrument when there is incomplete knowledge about a problem or phenomenon; however it is not a method for all types of IS research questions.

"The Delphi Method for Graduate Research" by Skulmoski, Gregory J.; Hartman, Francis T.; Krahn, Jennifer - Journal of Information Technology Education, Vol. 6, Annual 2007. Introduction It continues to be an exciting time to be a researcher in the information systems discipline; there seems to be a plethora of interesting and pressing research topics suitable for research at the masters or PhD level.

Researchers may want to look forward to see what will be the key information systems issues in a wireless world, the ethical dilemmas in social network analysis, and the lessons early adopters learn. Practitioners may be interested in what others think about the strengths and weaknesses of an existing information system, or the effectiveness of a newly implemented information system.

The Delphi Method in Quantitative Research

Why we think it's important: The Delphi method has been used primarily as a qualitative approach in the social sciences. While the previous edition highlighted many of the quantitative uses of Delphi, the 2014 edition provides an illustrated tutorial on its applied mathematics, giving students the basis for undertaking their own quantitative Delphi analyses. New in the 2014 edition: Now includes an extended illustrated tutorial on how to use fuzzy mathematics to analyze Delphi networks.

ASEE PEER - Assembling the Ideal Doctoral Dissertation Committee in Engineering Education. "Exploring Critical Success Factors for Managing Complex Information Te" by Kyle Dean Boyles. Abstract The problem addressed in this study was the lack of understanding about failures of government leadership in accomplishing complex information technology (IT) projects and the ways such failures can negatively affect organizational performance.

The purpose was to query subject matter experts and leaders with the intent to identify methods to reduce complex IT project failure rates in government organizations. This qualitative study drew on the technology acceptance model and the capability maturity model integration framework to evaluate organizations' abilities to manage complex IT projects. The delphi method. Delphi Technique A Literature Review. Delphi consensus survey. This Delphi survey produced rich information for further development of the SPIRIT Initiative, which aims to develop a guideline for clinical trial protocol content. Recent studies suggest that PubMed indexes over 6,000 RCTs annually[24] and this number has likely increased over time[25]. This finding does not account for trials indexed in other databases (between 20% and 70% of trials depending on the discipline[26]) and the minimum of 40% of trials not reaching full publication[27].

Given that all clinical trials should have a protocol, this Delphi and the SPIRIT Initiative have broad applicability. Our panellists rated many concepts as highly important for inclusion in RCT protocols, most of which had a strong majority favouring inclusion, indicating consensus within the panel (for example narrow IQRs). Our results also indicate where panellists favoured excluding concepts and where a clear consensus was not attained.

Delphi Method - Knowledge Center. What is the Delphi Method? Description The Delphi method from T.J. Gordon, Olaf Helmer, and Norman Dalkey is a technique that can be used to structure a group communication process to deal with a complex problem. The Delphi Method is based on the Dialectical Inquiry approach: Thesis (establishing an opinion or view), Antithesis (conflicting opinion or view) and finally Synthesis (a new agreement or consensus).
