The Social Sciences Experimental Laboratory (SSEL) is bound by the School of Social Sciences, Department of Economics.

SSEL's research-ethics responsibilities include the proper safeguarding of potentially sensitive data collected during an experiment. SSEL takes the following steps to meet its confidentiality requirements:

  • All data collected during recruitment is stored on a server that is accessible only to SSEL research staff. These data are used only for the purpose of recruiting subjects to participate in SSEL experiments.
  • All personally-identifying data collected during an experiment (e.g. your name) is processed according to the approved ethics document of the respective study. Usually, any personal information is replaced with a code number, and the list linking code numbers to personally-identifying data is kept separate from the experimental data.
  • All human-subjects forms containing personally-identifying information (e.g. informed consent) are stored in secure locations.

As a human-subject participant at SSEL, it is your right to lodge a complaint if you believe that sensitive information about you collected during an experiment has not actually been kept confidential. Such complaints can be delivered to the Ethics and Research Governance at data.protection@soton.ac.uk
