What will the data be used for?
Future researchers may wish to use your data in a number of ways – to supplement their own materials; to replicate an existing study; to learn about another researcher’s methodology; to teach research methods to undergraduate or postgraduate students; or to undertake a comparison over time or space. While it is difficult to predict all the different ways the data might be used, researchers will be required to follow standard ethical guidelines when conducting their research to ensure no harm comes to you as a participant.
How will confidentiality be preserved?
This will occur in a number of ways. First, any identifying details, such as names, dates or addresses will be removed from written documents before going into the archive. Instead, researchers will know you only by pseudonym or ID number and will refer to you in these ways in any publications or reports. Second, audio-files will be digitally altered so that these identifying details are removed from the interview recording. Third, the access restrictions placed on the data mean that your data will not be available to just anyone, but to qualified university scholars who are well-trained in ethical research and who will abide by the code of conduct for ethical research with human subjects.
Can you request to have your data removed from the archive sometime in the future?
Yes. If at any time, you no longer wish for your data to be archived with ASSDA, you are free to request that it is withdrawn. You can do this by contacting ASSDA via email at assda@anu.edu.au or by telephoning them on 02 6125 4400. You may also contact the researcher directly if you prefer.
