  1. Kraków, Poland 26-29 June, 2018 Communication as a qualityfactorinmulti-sourcespatial data integrationprocess Włodzimierz Okrasa Cardinal Stefan WyszynskiUniversityin Warsaw and Statistics Poland

  2. Goal / rationale for … • to dealwithanalyticallimitationscaused by thelack of appropriate data needed for exploringcross-levelrelationships - such as betweenindividual and local community wellbeing - and • to demonstrateempiricallypotentials of spatialintegrationapproachthroughconstructing an analyticalmultilevelmulti-sourcedatabasecontainingdifferenttypes of units - individual and group (NUTS5 / local community, gmmina), alongwith (iii) emphasizingthe role played by communication* within the statistical research, contributingatthe same time to a methodological framework of 'spatially integrated statistical research‘, resultingin (iv) better quality of the final product of thewholestatisticalprocess - from data to evidence-baseddecision/policy (an ‘outcome’ unavaiableotherwise) 'better communication for better quality’. *) „… communication is not just an appendix of the core business focused on data production, but a key function that can determine the success or the failure of an official data provider”Givannini, 2008, p.10

  3. Problem / questions: • Whatisthe role of communicationintheprocess of statisticalresearch – whatareitsimportantcomponents? • howdoesitaffectthequality of boththeprocess and product (statistical products)? • whichaspects / attributes of qualityareparticularyexposed to (or dependent on) thecommunication [assumingthe high quality of the ‘communication’ itself]  quality of statisticalproduct

  4. Problem / questions– cont. II. Communication and qualityinthecontext of workingwithspatial data • constructingmulti-sourcegeo-referenceddatabases ►communication and qualityinaggregation / of aggregated (matched) databases ►(since spatialaggregationmaylead to multi-level /’nested’ data structure – e.g., householdsincommunities): howspatialintegration of data contributes to theimprovement of overallquality of theresearchoutcome? exemplification for community & individualwell-beingrelationship /spatial data analyis 

  5. Quality of ‘statistical product’ /public (official) statistics = f {quality of ‘endogenous’ (internal) factors /research process & quality of ‘exogenous’ (external) factors/data from other sources} ‘Internal’ quality /surveyresearch Quality of statisticalproduct ‘External’ quality/other /administrative data sources

  6. Communicationtowardsensuringquality of ‘statisticalproduct’ • Communication in survey data production process • factual information (household survey, establishment survey – different types of respondents) • the response process model: comprehension  judgement  communication: filtering response & providing answer (eg. Biemer et al., 2004, p.230) • Communication in non-survey and administrative data use for statistical purpopes. • Communication in multi-source database construction • Communication in statistical processes (SP) involving spatial data (SD) stakeholders in SP/SD

  7. Chain of communicationinstatisticalprocess: fromdata to decision(policy) making – alternativeparadigms Two-wayre-paradigmatization/ a newmeta-paradigm? (a) data ‘first’(as a policyinput) • Data-basedPolicy/decisionmaking • Data-driven (Evidence-basedpolicy)* • Data/evidence-informed (b) users ‘first’ (needs for…) • Policy-oriented • Policy-basedData/informationproduction • Policy-driven ** *) „ Evidence-influenced politics is suggested as a more informative metaphor, descriptively and prescriptively, than evidence-based policy” (Prewitt, 2012; p. 4). **)”Evidence-based policy or policy-based evidence?” (Sanderson2011)

  8. Communicationinmulti-sourcedatabase construction: influence of particular data set’squality on overallquality of themulti-sourcedatabase, by pattern of matching Horizontalpattern /completeoverlapping A↔B↔C A Source A . . . . A, B, C Quality A vertical(hierarchical) /nested data structure Source B A B Quality B C cross-sectional /mixed: partlyhorizontaland vertical) Source K Quality K

  9. Scientific (statistical) communicationentails several elements (eg. Maggino and Trapani, 2010, Nymand-Andersen, 2017, …<) Communicationcomposingelements: (i) contents /information (‘message’) to be communicated / transmitetd to a ‘receiver’; (ii) communicator / transmitetr (‘statisitician) (iii) reciver / audience (addressees– experts / researchers, policymakers, users of statistical data/product, etc. (iv) communication channel -“a medium through which a message is directed to and exchanged with its intendedaudience”;multiple-channelcommunication; • code (transmitter’s / receiver’scode): - the waystatistics are reported (and presented; - the tools used in order to transmit statistics (tools), (vi) context, (vii) feedback, (viii) noise.

  10. Communication and Quality –symmetrical issues: • Quality of communication • Ensuringhigh-quality (error-free) transmittion of information: (i) inter-/acrossphases/ stages of thestatisticalprocess, meant as data production and analysis; (ii) amongthestakeholdersinthestatisticalprocess  communication of quality(‘reflected in the TQM principle of participation by all’) • communication with user, otherstakeholders

  11. Communication and quality: (1)institutional and (2) methodologicalaspects 1. Institutions of public statistics seekstheappropriatestrategy of effectivecommunicationexternally( ‘target groups’: general public-politicians- research/academia – media-voluntarysector-internationalbodies] internally • e.g. „Communication strategy for Statistics Norway 2014-2017” stressescredibility of institution as thekey element affected - in ‘positive’ or ‘negative’ way - by communicationmeant as a precondition (a must) of quality of statisticalproduct: • „ If the communication weakens the credibility of our work, the high quality of the statistics and research will be of no help”(p.3) • Example of principles of effectivecommunication (p.4) • transparency - accessibility - understandability(form of statisticalinformation) - independence(no authoritiesorinterestgroupspreferred).

  12. Assessing statistical communication • Conceptualframework(Maggino and Trapani, op.cit.) • Thedimensions to evaluate: focus on the transmitter’s code, specified in terms of (i) outline, (ii) tools, and (iii) cloths. • Thecriteria of evaluation: (A) suitability/ consistency, (B) correctness, and (C) clarityof the code. 3. The components of the transmission process: (i) the receiver/audience (and its receiving code), (ii) the available channel, and (iii) the available context and setting, and, in some way, (iv) the contents message.

Communicationinstatisticalresearch*: processunderpinningactivitiesfrom data collection to decisionmakingwhichintegratesinstitutional and methodologicalelementsaffectingqualityof thefinaloutcome(evidence-baseddecisions/policy) : data information knowledge decision demand for models/methods program/policy-driven i information of convertingexpectationson informationintoproblem-solving a knowledgebase /usersneeds Quantification and measurement co m m u n i c a t i o n: *) „Numbers, figures and patternsare first of all of the communicationstrategies …” (Porter, 1995) , and as suchare ‘sociallyconstructed(Schield, 2013)

  14. Thelogic of methods and thelogic of actions:Two-dimensionalcommunication-routeintheSP • Communicationaccording to the logic of method: retro-implication/backwardimplication:conditionalacceptability of an alternative ‘methodological choice’ in the SP and reduction of quality-relatedriskfactors in matching/assembling - ste-by-step: a, b, …, r – selection from amongalternativeavailablemethods, techniques and procedures Si = {s a × sb … × sr} ; Si– element of the set of all ‘methodologicallyfeasible’ strategies (containingcombination of elements of sub-strategies , sa,…, sr.) methodologicalquality of research  evaluationresearch as a ‘communicate’ inmakingdecision (i) ‘cognitive’ (eg., abouthypotheses) or (ii) ‘practical’ (changein ‘goal state’, eg., Ackoff, 1958): reliability – validity – generalizability– cognitivevalueof research /’epitemicutility’, ‘pragmaticvalue of information’ (Marschak 1974, Szaniawski 1974, Okrasa 1978).

  15. Communication in the SP according to the logic of method–contin.

  16. Communication in the SP - strategies of actions (operationappr.): communicationbetween‘twocommunities’: researchersand policy makers(Prewitt et al. 2012) • Translation, a supply-side solution to the use problem - applicable to questions of using science in policy (eg., social science, medical science). • Brokering involves filtering, synthesizing, summarizing, and disseminating research findings in user-friendly packages. • (in contrast to translation strategies) brokering involvestwo-way communication (op cit.,,.45) • An interaction model, covers a family of ideas directed to systemic changes in the means and opportunities for relationships between researchers and policy makers ; • emphasis on use-inspired research and increased visibility and an insight into what the use of science means in practice. The issue of particular importance in this context concerns how data collectors/producers communicate with data providers?  the long-lasting dilemma between confidentiality and accessibility of official statistics (Duncan et al.,1993, 2011; Okrasa 1994, 2008).

  17. Communication among the SPstakeholders - cont. Communication outside the SP /macro-context – EU policy: • „Strengthening the communication function of the national and international statistical systems” and „…to modernize the statistics function by adding the “communication function” as an integrated part of the statistical” (Numand-Andersen, 2017, p.2). • The lack of a proactive communication strategy may have contributed reputational loss and trust in statistics, in its profession and in those statistical agents engaged in developing methodology and producing reliable and comparable national and international statistics, as a public good for sound andsustainable decision making.

  18. The statistics communication function(Numand-Andersen, op.cit.) • Thestatistics communication function relates predominantly to five main components; • what - extracting statistics intelligence in context from the pool of disseminated/available statistics; • who - applying tailored market segmentations; • how - using various communication concepts & forms; • which - applying multiple communication channels • why - descriptions and applying statistics knowledge. • Preparing a statisticscommunicationstrategy:  to build an user-centred communication strategy, seeking to understand users’ needs, the barriers they face and theirworking processes; and …to establish a new two-way statistics communication strategy and thereby involve users in the statistics community.

  19. CommunicatonbasisintheSPisquantification: convention and measurement • Quantification:process of data transormation in numerical form through measuring characterisitcs of a set of units or items on a scale in form of numbers, letters or verbally (e.g. Federer, 1991) • Quantification is a more than measurement (Desrosières , 2001) - it requires conventions on which the measurement is based • Quantifcation (a sociological phenomenon, eg., Espeland and Stevens, 2008; Alonso and Starr, 1987; Federer, 1991) : production of information and communication using numbers (precondition for measurement is classification). Classification (pre-measurement)  system of communicationcodes - inthecontext of spatialanalysis  integration of data fromdifferentsources

  20. Matrix of quality-related risk factors and responsibility: Communication elements in the SP (eg, survey) – integrating 2dimensions {Qcij=dff(qcm, qca)} qcm =dfg (V(r); V(r) – value of research qca=dfg’ (R). R – risk/reductionof… *)Some DSOs tend to view wide-scale communication about statistical confidentiality as a risk in itself. Their concern is that such communicationwould decrease response rates. But good communication about risksand benefits could lead to greater buy-in by respondents and also reduced negativeconsequences if a disclosure event takes place(Duncan et al., 2011).

  21. Assumption:Integration of data from differentsourcesrequireseffectivecommunication, and contributes to quality of the finalproduct /’outcome’ • Spatialintegration of data – geo-referenced data (coordinates X, Y) and statisticalmatchingtechniques (e.g., D'Orazio et al., 2006) allow to solveseveralmethodologicalproblems,for instance: • integration of objective and subjectivemeasures of wellbeing, such as individual and community wellbeing - a dual system of indicators(beyond GDP) • multidisciplinaryintegration of scientificknowledge– spatiallyintegratedsocialresearch(Goodchild et al., 2004), a framework for integration of social and behavioraldisciplines(Stimson, 2014; Okrasa, 2012;) Spatialintegrationinsocialresearch: • key role of geographicalconcepts and spatial data: place, locality, distance/proximity, distribution, nejghborhood, region; • exploration and analysis of spatialpatterns of socialphenomena.

  22. Spatialintegration and communication of statisticalknowledge(e.g., community wellbeing) • Strategies of spatialintegration – motives for: • data- drivendue to growingrapidlyamount of availablegeo-referenced data; • method-drivenoranalyticalintegration, eg., usingmultilevelmodelling; • programme-drivenorpolicy-drivenfollowiingsomelocalorregional development projectorex anteevaluation of validity of a system of geographictargeting of public resources, etc.; • problem-drivenwhenspatialperspectiveprovides anappropriatedirection to solve the problem of identification and addressing a policy issuesuch as spatial concentration of poverty – eg., integration of survey and administrativeorcencus data to mappingpoverty for betteruse of poverty-reduction resources, etc. spatialIntegration /exemplification

  23. Spatial data quality(includingGIS-type data)(Veregin 1999, Radson 2000, van Oort 2006) • Lineage: describes the source of the derived data, derivation methods, and all transformations employed in producing the final data • Spatial accuracy • positional accuracy: compares spatial data to an independent and more accurate source. • attribute accuracy: may include deductive estimates or may be based on independent samples from polygon overlay • Logical consistency: determines the faithfulness of data structures embedded in a transfer file. • Completness :A data set is complete with regards to aspects such as minimum area employed in polygon construction, gaps in either the data element set or attribute values, etc

  24. [Examplification] Spatialintegration: ‘place’ / locality (NTS5=gmina) as an integrator, a merging element . Individualwellbeing and quality of local community (neighborhood), orcommunity wellbeingWhichcomponents of communicationcontributessignificantly to quality of statisticalproduct– throughenablinganalysis of relationshipbetweenindividual (subjective) and community wellbeing – due to construction of multilevelmulti-sourcedatabase:• Local Data Bank (LDB) • Time UseSurvey data (TUS /GUS 2013) • SocialDiagnosis (SD)

  30. DATA and MEASURES: LocalDeprivation and SubjectiveWell-Being (SW-B) • Multi-sourcedatabase: • commune/gmina level data:Regional / Local Data Base (CSO – public file 2004, 2008, 2010 and 2012, 2014, and 2016); NUTS5/LAU2; (N= 2 478); • Measuringareadeprivationatthecommunelevel • MultidimensionalIndex of LocalDeprivation (MILD) ‘Confirmatory’FactorAnalysis / PCA (single-factorselection): Eleven (pre-selected) domains of deprivation - eachcharacterized by a lnumber of originalitems: ecology – finance – economy – infrastructure – municipal utilities –culture – housing – socialassistance – labour market – education – health [65 items]  comparingresultsbased on twospatialdatasets: 386 and 1036 communes/gminas: whatarethedifferencesabout(in ‘ space’)?

  31. Individual (Subjective) Wellbeing: TUSdata-basedmeasures • Socialindicatorsapproach– attmepts to exploitTUS data (Th. Juster; and others, e.g., F.

  37. Discussion and Summary • Confirmation of assumption concerning the role of communication in research - its requirements and tools (metadata, geo-coding, compatibility of measures and information, etc.) – towards improving overall quality of the final research outcome , through first, allowing for spatial integration of data from different sources with information on different types of units - community, households, individuals , and for constructing a multi-source multilevel analytical database, and second, enabling analysis of cross-level variables such as, on the one hand, local community deprivation (MILD /Multidimensional Index of Local Deprivation) and , on the other hand, individual income or subjective wellbeing .

  38. Conclusion. Empirical analysis has proven possibility to go beyond the limitations that emerge when data from particular datasets are used separately. And that integration of data generated in different research processes pays off in terms of the quality of final outcome, if not also of quality of each of the research involved as well. Especially, if it would become a norm in research practice to expect that such a methodological strategy - implied by the spatially integrated research framework - would be recommended to be explicitly considered as an option in every research underway. Accordingly, a system of needed information and ways of its transmission, constituting communication process underpinning all the activities - from planning collection of data to using evidence-based knowledge - would have to be clearly determined, both in methodological and institutional aspects, and put into operation.
