High-quality insights are predicated on strong research design and qualified, attentive respondents. Sawtooth Software enables you to build expert surveys, but how confident are you in the quality of data you collect from survey respondents? The last several years have seen a dramatic increase in survey fraud, including responses generated by bots, click farms, scammers and more.

In this webinar Sawtooth Software welcomes Steven Snell, Head of Research at RepData, to provide an overview of the threats present in the modern online survey environment and outlines several strategies to help you assess and improve your data quality.
