Abstract
Statistics Indonesia, known in Indonesia as Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS), has conducted a series of trials to utilize Computer-Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI) in a census or survey. However, CAPI costs a lot of money to procure and maintain the device. Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) principle offers cost opportunity to device management. In the practice of BYOD in BPS, a device that has good performance is required, because some devices aren’t capable of running CAPI properly. Yet, in BPS there is no standard value to qualify mobile devices to be used in census or survey. Therefore, it is necessary to review what kind of device is suitable for using CAPI. This study utilized CAPI used in a student’s field study as a case study reference. Initially, researchers develop benchmark applications as a tool for feasibility. Furthermore, developed application is tested on a certain base device to calculate the scores to be used as the standard values.
Highlights
Most of the censuses and surveys carried out by Statistics Indonesia, known as Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS), a government agency responsible for the official statistics in Indonesia, still utilize the Paper and Pencil Interviewing (PAPI) method in the data collection process
The aim of this study is to examine convenient measurement techniques to determine the standard value of a mobile device and determine the minimum specifications of a mobile device capable to run Computer-Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI) properly
Corresponded with the above objectives, this study developed a benchmark application as a tool to measure the feasibility of a device in using CAPI
Summary
Most of the censuses and surveys carried out by Statistics Indonesia, known as Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS), a government agency responsible for the official statistics in Indonesia, still utilize the Paper and Pencil Interviewing (PAPI) method in the data collection process. The PAPI method uses printed questionnaires and stationery as a tool for data collection. Census or survey generally begins with the preparation of the questionnaires. The stages of preparing the questionnaire require cost and time to print the questionnaire that has been designed. The printed questionnaire will be distributed to each area covered in the census or survey. Validation needs to be done before the data sent to BPS headquarters to begin the compilation and tabulation process which requires time and costs. Another shortcoming of PAPI is the handling of non-sampling errors that require additional effort from the employee to examine
