 Dear colleagues, my name is Conny Reike and as the chair of the ethics review board I'm happy to explain to you the procedure for ethics review. My colleague Eleni Costa will explain the procedure for data management which she explains in another info clip. So what are the procedures within the Tilburg Law School? There will be one form, an integrated form, which you have to submit electronically on the university website. Then our data representative and the secretary of the Ethics Review Board Linda Martis will have a first check on the formalities and the completeness of the application. So she will look if you have uploaded the consent form, the information sheet, etc. If that is all complete then the members of the board will review the application based on the potential risk of harm and the mitigating strategies that you propose in your application. We find it important to stress that we will not assess the scientific relevance, scientific quality of the proposal, the accuracy of the design and the methods that are used unless they appear to be really unethical. So the ethics approval is, if you get it, is valid for the duration of the project and the committee should be notified of the delays of the start and the end dates of the project and also if there changes something in the application or in your procedure. It is given for the study as specified in the submission. If you do research abroad then there is a need for ethical clearance from the country in which you do your research. Even though if you have had ethical clearance here already at Silverclaw School. So the approval of your research cannot be obtained after the study has been conducted. So you need to plan in advance, you need to have the ethical clearance before you start the research. The procedure will take at least three weeks depending on how complete your proposal is. And also of course the difficulties and how, then the application form. So what kind of information should be provided to us? Well of course details on yourself as a researcher. The main applicant is an employee at Tilburg University. The study proposal, background, research, question design because we must be able to understand what you are going to do. How you are going to disseminate the results to whom the debriefing, the role of the participants in the debriefing. But also with regard to the participants of course and description of the sample. Whether they are capable to give informed consent and the potential ethical threats to the threats and harm for the participants. So if there are long interviews or if there is any other risk. Then of course the privacy and confidentiality, the privacy protection of the participants and finances that is involved in your research. So if it is financed by a third party, whether there is a conflict of interest for instance. Available infrastructure, the number of participants, how you are going to recruit them, the safety for you as a researcher. But also for the participants of course and any additional materials. So how you recruit the participants, the information sheet informed consent that should all be included in your application. And finally if you have them available already, the questionnaires should be submitted as well. So good luck with your application for the future.
