Abstract

This article provides an overview on the roles of social media (SM) in survey research. After examining the characteristics and challenges of using social media data in statistical research, we discuss recent approaches on ways SM have been used to enhance survey research. We then introduce a general modular framework for producing statistics taking advantage of the two data
sources. Finally, we highlight important questions for future research.
