All research conducted within the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences must adhere to ethical standards, aligning with professional codes of conduct, European legislation, and any other applicable regulations. Depending on the nature of the study, it may be necessary to have your research reviewed by the official review board to facilitate data publication or grant proposal approvals. Furthermore, any experiments involving human subjects must ensure that participants sign an informed consent form prior to participation. Employees may file a submission on PRIDE (PRIvacy-Data-Ethics) and students may apply on the UU-SER (Student Ethics Review) page.
