| You plan to measure the attitudes of students regarding computer availability at
UWSP. To do this, you have developed a questionnaire but you are not sure if the
questions will be interpreted as you intend. To test this, you decide to do a test run
(pilot study) using the questionnaire on a few students to see if you need to do any
revisions before you actually collect your data. You run this pilot study and
discover that your original questionnaire does in fact need revision. Once you have
made the revision, you submit your research protocol to the IRB for approval. Are
there any problems with this procedure? YES
NO |
