Research on SRE (Sex and Relationships education)

Hi

My name is Bianca and I am a 3rd year BSc Psychology student at University of Southampton. I have been working for hampshire Autistic Society for about 1 year as a support worker for teenagers and young adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

I am very passionate about ASD and I have decided to dedicate my final year research project on this. My research proposal has been approved by the University ethics commitee and so it is regarding staff's attitudes on Sex and Relationship Education for teenagers and young people with ASD. 

I am currently recruiting participants and I would very much appreciate your participation. I can send you the questions in advance and you can have a look and then decide if it would be ok to participate.

It only takes about half an hour and, due to ethics reasons, you will not mention anybody's name. Also, all information will be kept confidential and presented anonymised.

Please let me know if you would like to take part, as I would be extrenely grateful of your precious time. If you have any questions or would like to take part please email me at [removed by moderator].

Thank you so much

Bianca

  • What is most bizarre is that this is the University of Southampton, one of the top 15 research universities in the UK - psychology described in the last Research Assessment Exercise as "internationally excellent" This request should be really bad publicity for the University of Southampton because they are a forefront research university, and this sends the wrong messages. 

    But again, its a health science suject area... and health sciences can break the rules... apparently. This despite the formation of HEAL www.southampton.ac.uk/heal it stands for Health ethics and the Law. Does make you wonder how effective that is, when they don't manage student undergraduate research properly.....

    And then there's the module "Doing Research in Healthcare: research project" HMPR3001. Nothing about ethics in it.

    Undergraduate students shouldn't be trawling support discusion groups like this. But when one of the best universities in the country does it, you are left thinking....is this what we've fallen to?  I'm shocked.
