Description

Hi,

Have just submitted a paper using Understanding Society to Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. They require an Ethics Approval Number for the main stage data. I have seen the standard quote on the website 'The University of Essex Ethics Committee has approved all data collection on Understanding Society main study and innovation panel waves, including asking consent for all data linkages except to health records etc ' but they appear to want a specific number for the approval from the University of Essex Ethics Committee. Can you help?

Thanks

Eric

Many thanks for your enquiry. The Understanding Society team is looking into it and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

We aim to respond to simple queries within 48 hours and more complex issues within 7 working days. While we will aim to keep to this response times due to the current coronavirus (COVID-19) related situation it may take us longer to respond.

Best wishes,

Dear Eric,

Ethics approval for Waves 6-8 was received via a letter dated 20th August 2013 from the University of Essex Ethics Committee and for Waves 9-11 via a Letter dated 4th October 2016 from the University of Essex Ethics Committee. At that time a system of ethics approval numbers was not in place.

Best wishes,
Stephanie
