摘要
Literacy, vernacular and culture pose challenges to conducting research among Spanish-speaking migrant farm workers. While paper-based questionnaires written in Spanish are of some assistance, transcribing survey data into computer files is time-consuming and error-prone. Software applications such as CyberTracker(R) in for use with a personal digital assistant (PDA) permit an icon-based data collection process that can be used in the field setting by people with a variety of literacy levels, language proficiency, and educational backgrounds. This project presents the design of modifications to CyberTracker(R) technology to create a PDA-version of a validated icon-based paper instrument for use in investigations of domestic violence among the migrant farm worker community.
