Is the survey more than minimal risk

James Ortega · Answer 2

Basically, the question is trying to find out whether the local Chilean committee has to be contacted, on top of the university. So we can ask: what are the things that the local Chilean committee could object to?

One such thing would be the privacy issue: does the questionnaire protect the identity of the participants? The local committee would have a special interest in protecting the privacy of their locals.
