The number of studies that utilize the features built into smartphones and other wearable devices to study human behavior and interaction has grown in recent years. Passi ve mobile data collection using sensors allows researchers to collect da ta at a rate and detail that is not possible with traditional survey met hods. However\, incorporating sensor measurements to augment or replace survey questions through sensors and apps creates methodological challen ges around representativeness\, survey design and implementation\, measu rement\, as well as ethical and legal considerations that are yet to be understood.\n\nThis 2-day workshop is jointly organized by researchers f rom the Social Statistics department at the University of Manchester\, t he Department of Methodology and Statistics at Utrecht University\, the Professorship for Social Data Science and Methodology at the University of Mannheim\, and the german Center for Higher Education research and Sc ience Studies\, University of Hannover. This year the workshop is suppor ted by the Hallsworth Conference fund at the University of Manchester. T he keynotes and the social events are support by National Centre for Res earch Methods\, Centre for Digital Trust and Society and Cathie Marsh In stitute. The workshop is free of charge for participants\, but participa nts are expected to cover their own travel and lodging costs.\n\nThe goa l of this workshop is to bring together researchers from different disci plines to discuss the current state of their research on the use of mobi le apps\, sensors\, and wearables in survey data collection. The worksho p is only open to participants whose abstracts will be accepted for a pa per presentation.\n\n \n\nProgramme:\n\nThe provisional programme of the workshop can be found under Programme of the 4th MASS workshop\n\nWe ar e happy to announce two keynote speakers at MASS23:\n\n1. Kathleen Cagne y\n\nKathleen Cagney was named the Director of the University of Michiga n Institute for Social Research effective September 1\, 2021. Professor Cagney’s work examines social inequality and its relationship to health with a focus on neighborhood\, race\, and aging\, and the life course. S he has developed a series of papers on neighborhood social capital and i ts relationship to outcomes such as self-rated health\, asthma prevalenc e\, physical activity\, and mortality during the 1995 Chicago heatwave. She also focuses on the validity of such measures and the development of new neighborhood-based metrics that reflect the perceptions and experie nces of older residents. She holds research professorships in ISR’s Surv ey Research Center and Population Studies Center.\n\n2. Helen Nissenbaum \n\nHelen Nissenbaum is a professor of Information Science and founding director of the Digital Life Initiative at Cornell Tech\, NYC. Her work on ethical and political dimensions of digital technologies spans issues of privacy\, bias\, trust online\, design\, and accountability in compu tational and algorithmic systems. Prof. Nissenbaum’s publications\, whic h include the books\, Obfuscation: A User’s Guide for Privacy and Protes t\, with Finn Brunton (MIT Press\, 2015)\, Values at Play in Digital Gam es\, with Mary Flanagan (MIT Press\, 2014)\, and Privacy in Context: Tec hnology\, Policy\, and the Integrity of Social Life (Stanford\, 2010)\, have been translated into seven languages\, including Polish\, Chinese\, and Portuguese. Recipient of the 2014 Barwise Prize of the American Phi losophical Association and the IACAP Covey Award for computing\, ethics\ , and philosophy\, Prof. Nissenbaum has contributed to privacy-enhancing free software\, TrackMeNot (against profiling of Web search histories) and AdNauseam (against profiling based on ad clicks). She holds a Ph.D. in philosophy from Stanford University and a B.A. (Hons) in Philosophy a nd Mathematics from the University of the Witwatersrand\, South Africa. Prior to joining Cornell Tech\, she directed NYU’s Information Law Insti tute.\n\n \n\nThe keynotes can be followed even if you are not participa ting in the workshop.

Novel social science theory and data collection can bring insight into the content and structure of older adult lives. T he Chicago Health and Activity Space in Real Time (CHART) study provides one example of the use of novel technology to address fundamental quest ions in urban sociology and the life course. CHART employs innovative sm artphone-based methods for the identification of older adults’ activity spaces. Analyses from 450 adults from ten Chicago neighborhoods who carr ied smartphones for GPS tracking and Ecological Momentary Assessments ov er seven days are used to assess\, for instance\, how the span\, charact eristics\, and experiences of activity spaces vary across socioeconomic status and racial/ethnic groups. Applicability and extensions of this ap proach to rural contexts\, with pilot data from the Appalachian region o f North Carolina\, will be described.\nBio: Kathleen Cagney was named th e Director of the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research e ffective September 1\, 2021.
