Abstract
When used adequately, technology-enabled measurement can help researchers and practitioners better assess various constructs and phenomena of interest and hence better understand, predict, and influence them in order to address social and behavioral issues. This article examines key issues and experiences in Singapore associated with digital transformation and data society, including challenges and opportunities in technology-enabled measurement that may be applicable as well in other cities and countries. Using Singapore’s digitization transformation journey to apply technology systematically and extensively to improve the lives of its people as an example, critical issues of contexts, changes, and collaborations in research, policy, and practice involving technology-enabled measurement of psychological constructs and processes are discussed.
