Abstract. When using Short Message Service (SMS) as a tool for data collection in psychological research, participants can be contacted at any time. This study examined how sampling frequency and time of day of contact impacted on response rates, response completeness, and response delay in repeated measures data collected via SMS. Eighty-five undergraduate students completed a six-item self-report questionnaire via SMS, in response to 20 SMS prompts sent on a random schedule. One group responded across 2 days, the other on a compressed schedule of 1 day. Overall, there was a high response rate. There was no significant difference in response rate, completeness, and delay of those responding across 1 or 2 days. Timing between prompts did not impact on response behavior. Responses were more likely to be complete if prompts were sent during the working day. The shortest time between prompts was 15 min, however, and use of an undergraduate sample limits generalizability. When conducting repeated measures sampling using SMS, researchers should be aware that more frequent sampling can be associated with poorer data quality, and should aim to collect data during the working day rather than mornings or evenings.

Short Message Service (SMS) is a technology that provides service for sending and receiving messages between cell phones. Every individual, government, private or educational institution cannot be separated from using SMS as one of the information media. One of them is meeting notification information. But SMS technology can only carry limited data. SMS Gateway is a system that bridges mobile phones with the system that becomes a server with SMS as the information. In the SMS Gateway work system, the user's cellular phone sends an SMS containing the written format to access the information needed through the GSM network. The SMS will be received by the SMS Gateway cellular phone which will then be retrieved by the PC using the mfbus protocol via a data cable. Up to the PC, the text format will be processed by the SMS Gateway application program to produce information that will be sent to the SMS Gateway cellular phone using the mfbus protocol via a data cable. After that the information is sent by the SMS Gateway cellular phone to the user's cellular phone. With the SMS Gateway-based meeting notification application, it can provide detailed and concurrent notification of meeting information so that each meeting member can follow according to his schedule.

Mobile phones and smartphones providing the basic features of SMS (Short Message Service).Messages sent through SMS facility sometimes confidential, so that the necessary mechanisms to protect messages from crime. Mechanism that can be used to protect the message is to use a cryptographic algorithm Rijndael. This algorithm is a cryptographic algorithm chipher 128-bit block that has the ability to protect confidential messages. This research resulted in an application that can be used to protect the SMS message when the message is sent and received by users. Based on research conducted on the length of different messages with the same key length is obtained that the length of the message used computing time takes longer than the length of the message is the same and different key lengths.

AbstractThis article discusses an experiment in sending regular Short Message Service (SMS) messages to support language learning, and vocabulary learning in particular, at beginners' level in Italian at an Australian university. The approach we took built on the initiatives of Thornton and Houser (2005) and Dias (2002b), and was informed by the results of an earlier trial we had conducted with students at high-intermediate level (Levy & Kennedy, 2005). In testing the possibilities for using mobile phones for language learning purposes, we were especially interested in investigating the acceptability of a ‘push’ mode of operation, in which the scheduling of messages is determined by the teachers. While the students appreciated the experience overall, and found the message content often useful or enjoyable, there was a wide range of views on the frequency of messages acceptable. We are therefore planning the further integration of messaging into the course around a flexible arrangement involving options for high or low frequency of pushed messages, as well as messages available on request – in ‘pull’ mode.

BACKGROUND Low back pain (LBP) is a frequent reason for emergency department (ED) presentations with a global prevalence of 4.4%. Despite being common, the number of clinical trials investigating LBP in the ED is low. Recruitment of patients in EDs can be challenging due to the fast-paced and demanding ED environment. OBJECTIVE To describe the recruitment and response rates using a short message service (SMS) and an online survey system supplemented by telephone calls to recruit LBP patients and collect health outcomes in the ED. METHODS An automated SMS system was integrated into REDCap and used to collect patient-reported outcomes for an implementation trial in Sydney, Australia. We invited patients with non-serious LBP who presented to participating EDs at one, two and four weeks after ED discharge. Patients who did not respond to the initial SMS invitation were sent a reminder SMS or contacted via telephone. Recruitment rate was measured as the proportion of patients who agreed to participate and response rate as the proportion of participants completing the follow-up surveys at weeks two and four. Regression analyses were used to explore factors associated with response rates. RESULTS In total, 807 patients with non-serious LBP were invited to participate and 425 (53%) agreed to participate. The week-1 survey was completed by 416 (52%) participants. At week-2, the response rate was 87% (360/416) and at week-4 was 84% (351/416). Overall, 60% of the surveys were completed via SMS/online and 40% via telephone. Younger participants and those from less socioeconomically disadvantaged areas were more likely to respond to the survey via the SMS/online system. CONCLUSIONS Using an SMS/online survey system supplemented by telephone calls is a viable method to recruit patients with LBP and collect health outcomes in the ED. This hybrid system could potentially reduce the costs of using traditional recruitment and data collection methods (e.g. face-to-face, telephone calls only). CLINICALTRIAL
