Surveys
Individuals and offices conducting a survey must provide the information listed below to surveys@laredo.edu at least two weeks before the start date of the survey:
- Description of the survey project, including the purpose and intended use of results.
- Specific population receiving the survey, including sample size & demographics.
- Method of survey distribution (e.g., online, hard copy, via email, in class, at event, etc.).
- Timeframe for administering the survey, including beginning and end dates.
- Description of any planned incentive program for respondents.
- Current draft of the survey and all invitation and cover letters.
If a recurring survey has been approved in an earlier year, it will be necessary only to submit information about the proposed administration dates. Surveys approved in prior years, but which have been significantly changed, must be re-approved. It is recommended that individuals and offices wishing to administer a survey consult with the IRB before submitting a survey proposal to ensure that there is no duplication of effort. Effective November 2023, all surveys not previously approved by IRB must be submitted for approval.
