Help please!

Hello all, 

We are two third year undergraduate BSc psychology students at Swansea University. We are currently collecting data for our joint final year project, which we have chosen to focus around the parents experience of the diagnosis of ASD. The survey responses are kept completely anonymous has gained ethical approval from the ethics committee at Swansea University.

We are looking for parents with at least one child on the ASD spectrum to fill out a simple online questionnaire on their own reactions to, and experiences of, their childs diagnosis.

The aim of the research is to gain insight into the parent's reactions to diagnosis, highlighting problem areas and hopes to improve the future diagnostic process.

This project is a huge part of our overall grades, so we hope to create a brilliant piece of research which will in turn improve the parental experience of the diagnostic process!

Here is the link to the survey: [linked removed by moderator]

Many thanks for your help, it is hugely appreciated Smile

  • But have you consulted the Moderators before posting this, see rule 6 on Community Rules?

    Apart from confidentiality issues and preying on support forums for data, Swansea University REALLY should know better than to allow undergraduates to do this. It is against research ethics. You have no proper control over data collected this way.

    Also such requests must carry a statement about the disposal of evidence. Even if you claim it is anonymous, people can be identified from such data.
