Qualtrics is a top-of-the-line survey research platform that is used widely for both academic and market research. Because Qualtrics can be a little bit intimidating for people who have not used it before, Dr. Saczawa ran an "Introduction to Qualtrics" session. <a href="https://it.hanover.edu/tech_docs/Qualtrics/Qualtrics.php">The video can be found here</a>, and you can email her for help with any of the other functions you may want to use.</p> <ul style="list-style-type: circle;"> <li class="Name"><a title="Qualtrics Login" href="http://hanovercollege.qualtrics.com/">Qualtrics Login</a></li> </ul> <h6> </h6> <h4><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Institutional Review Board</span></h4> <p>Hanover College requires that all human subjects research be submitted to the Institutional Review Board. In addition to guidelines for ethical research, the IRB website includes sample documents, such as consent forms and debriefing statements. </p> <ul style="list-style-type: circle;"> <li><a class="_exit" href="https://researchintegrity.hanover.edu/humansubjectsirb/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Hanover Institutional Review Board</a></li> </ul> <p>The Hanover IRB requires all researchers to have completed ethics training through the CITI Program. Instructions for accessing the required training course are available on the IRB website</p> <h6> </h6> <h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Statistical Software</span></h3> <p>Several data analysis programs are available. Most Hanover students learn to work in R and RStudio during MAT217 (Applied Statistics). Students are typically introduced to Jamovi and/or SPSS as part of PSY220 (Research Design and Statistics) and continue to conduct statistical analysis in 300- and 400-level classes.</p> <ul style="list-style-type: circle;"> <li><a href="https://www.jamovi.org/">Jamovi</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.r-project.org/">R</a> <ul style="list-style-type: circle;"> <li><a href="https://posit.co/download/rstudio-desktop/">R Studio</a></li> </ul> </li> <li>SPSS <ul style="list-style-type: circle;"> <li><a href="https://www.ibm.com/spss">30-day free trial</a></li> <li><a href="https://onthehub.com/products/4089c65e-9133-ed11-814e-000d3af41938">Discounted rental via OnTheHub</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> <h6> </h6> <h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Measures</span></h3> <p>Don't reinvent the wheel! There's a pretty good chance someone has already developed a measure for your variable. Even if there aren't any that are perfect for your study, there are probably measures that you could adapt to fit your study.
