Author Stephanie A. Sanders Author Erick Janssen Author Julia Heiman Author Clayton A Davis Author Filippo Menczer

Abstract

Kinsey Reporter is a global mobile app to share, explore, and visualize anonymous data about sex. Reports are submitted via smartphone, then visualized on a website or downloaded for offline analysis. In this paper we present the major features of the Kinsey Reporter citizen science platform designed to preserve the anonymity of its contributors, and preliminary data analyses that suggest questions for future research.
