Polls and Surveys

Dear Member,

Your survey/poll, as per Group Guidelines, is welcome in the "Resources" Subgroup (http://tinyurl.com/LinkedHRResources). The following are special Group Rules related to research studies and polls:

RULE #12: SPECIAL RULES FOR RESEARCHERS. Linked:HR welcomes research on the list as long as the following Rules are observed:

* Only HR-related research studies are allowed on Linked:HR.
* HR-related research studies which are NOT approved by an Institutional Review Board (IRB) should be posted in the Resources Subgroup (http://tinyurl.com/linkedhrresources) Subgroup. This includes most polls and surveys.
* Market research studies (including website, product, and feedback requests; market analyses, competition analysis, etc.) should be submitted in the Marketplace Subgroup (http://tinyurl.com/linkedhrmarketplace).
* HR-related research studies which ARE approved by an Institutional Review Board (IRB) may be posted in the Discussion area. Please submit a special request to the Group Manager including proof of IRB approval.
* The summary of findings for research studies conducted on Linked:HR must be posted on the Linked:HR Resource Page. Researchers are NOT allowed to require that Linked:HR members provide personal or contact information in order to access the research results.

Important note:If this survey is approved by an Institutional Ethics/Review Board, please write Dr. Cris Wildermuth, Head of Moderation, for special instructions. Since Institutional/Academic Research has to be run according to strict guidelines, we have special accommodations for such studies.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Kind Regards,

Moderator, Linked:HR
