Qualtrics and research with human subjects
The Clemson University Institutional Review Board (Clemson IRB) requires that with few exceptions, investigators use Qualtrics for all web-based surveys. Maintaining the security of research subjects' data is of paramount importance to the Clemson University IRB, and the CCIT Security Office has determined that the Qualtrics System meets University Data Security standards. The use of other web-based survey programs may be approved by the Clemson University IRB, but only after additional institutional review has been completed.
Collaboration with colleagues
Sharing is a feature in Qualtrics that allows you to give others access to your surveys and data. This will be especially useful for collaborating with colleagues outside of Clemson University who do not have Qualtrics accounts. Please see the Qualtrics Insight Support page for a complete guide to using this feature.
