ABSTRACT
Experiments in Social Sciences are attracting the attention of researchers, but there are several questions that need careful analysis, namely regarding privacy and data protection. Using an ongoing experimental research design to be implemented in Portugal and South Korea, the aim of this workshop is to reflect on the challenges and limitations of this method focusing on its relevance in the e-government field, in the phenomenon of experimenter bias as well and in ethical implications and concerns.
