These procedures are best done during the initial recruiting and should not be done after recruitment. Databases of respondents from third parties should not be recontacted by the facility conducting the project. Directions by the client for return or disposal of lists should be honored. Written permission should be obtained from a client if lists are to be used for other projects or for recruitment databases. If requested by the respondent, the respondent s name can be added to the facility database from a client s list.
Facilities can post a notice in a general area that they recruit respondents for other projects.
Notices are not acceptable in any other area or in correspondence with respondents without the client s permission. This pertains to Face to Face research. Always treat the respondent with fairness and sensitivity, but without compromising the research process and validity of the study. All rights reserved.
