You have arrived at our ethics page!
In this section of the web, you will find information
about ethics in research. The information is collected here for those
who are carrying out research in Deaf Studies - as undergraduates,
postgraduates or as staff in a research project.
The site is developing and additions and comments are
welcomed.
|
Who is this section for?
|
All projects in the Centre for Deaf Studies have to be presented
to the Internal Ethics Committee for consideration, before the
researcher begins work. Where external contacts are
involved - letters, questionnaires, interviews - these need to
be approved by the Ethics Committee - PRIOR TO THEIR USE. |
This section is directed at anyone who is carrying out or is
planning to carry out research with Deaf people and in the area
of Deaf Studies. It is
mandatory for all students of the
Centre for Deaf Studies in the
University of Bristol. |
|
Resources and Training
|
In some projects eg where personal records are to be accessed,
the approval has to come from an external ethics committee.
You can find more details on the forms page. |
There are many resources on the web which will give information
on the issues of ethics in research. There are also
on-line courses (see the weblinks page) |
