Question

A investigator decides to conduct a survey of adult learners to understand the barriers to adult education. The investigator has obtained permission from the adult education program to explain his study to these adult students and ask if they would be interested in participating. The investigator plans to pass out surveys to everyone in the class. Anyone who cares to complete it may do so. All surveys will be returned to the instructor who will place them in an envelope provided by the investigator. The envelope will then be sealed and mailed to the investigator for analysis. The investigator believes this study meets the definitions of minimal risk and the criteria for exemption from IRB review. What are his next steps

Answer 1

Answer:

If the study meets the minimum risk definitions and is exempt from IRB review, the researcher must prepare an article and prepare it to be published in a scientific journal.

Explanation:

When writing the article, the researcher must present all the data and stages of the experiment, show the research objectives, the conclusion of the study and present a scientific basis and a literature review on the study, leaving the article rich, efficient and complete.

After the article is ready, the researcher must prepare it for publication. First, it is necessary to choose a scientific journal that addresses research on the nature of this subject and where the publication would be relevant both for the researcher and for the article. The researcher must follow all the guidelines that the scientific journal requires for the publication of the article. Thus, the researcher will be able to adapt the article to these guidelines and submit it for analysis by the scientific journal, which must approve the registration and publish the article, if desired.
