It's out of my hands for a little while - my research proposal, that is. My advisor signed off on it and I brought it to the University's IRB office which oversees the risks of every study to determine whether or not it is an ethical, worthwhile study that doesn't take advantage of individuals and, indeed, adds knowledge to the research community. Now, I await a verdict, most likely with forthcoming changes before it is accepted, but until then, I live with the quirky pursuit of conducting my study. One necessary hoop at a time.
