Title: Asking permission from admin!!
Post by: student_bee_researcher on November 08, 2016, 02:10:55 pm
Hello all! I am a student researcher currently finishing my undergrad. For my senior thesis, I am interested in tracking geographical relationships of CCD and Honeybee health, and I have generated a survey through Survey Monkey. It is strictly anonymous, as I am not collecting any identifying criteria, and have been IRB approved for anonymity and protection of participants. I am requesting permission to post my survey on the BEEMASTER forum once completed, to branch out to a larger audience. Thank you for your time and consideration!!

As a former academic researcher, I am intimately familiar with IRB.   No one outside academics will be.   It would be nice for you to explain that to everyone so they know what you're talking about.

Also, it would be nice to know your name, university affiliation, etc.   We need to be anonymous, but you shouldn't be.
