Notes

We ask that you abide by the protocol and research guidelines, including the ethical statement in the protocol, prior to using the interview and survey questions. The questions are intended to serve as either an additional body of questions that can be added to an existing research project, or as the basis for a stand-alone project. If you are beginning a new, stand-alone project, you will need to broaden the scope of the questions so that you understand that prior disaster and its impact on the community you are working in. It is our recommendation that you carefully review the wording of the questions and the annotations and instructions associated with them so that you can ensure that they will be appropriate for your particular research and still accomplish the aims of the questions. We require that you check each of the following to indicate your agreement:

1. Agree to the CADAN Ethical Statement in the Protocol (pg. 7).

2. Agree to the Creative Commons Attribution Agreement and Citation (pg. 8).

3. Respond to a brief, annual researchers questionnaire.

4. Consider registering your study to be included in the CADAN Cumulative Disasters Directory.

5. Before beginning research, secure Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval, or alternative approval that corresponds to basic ethical measures for the protection for human subjects: https://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/human.jsp.
