Social Media for Research Recruitment: Ethical and Practical Aspects

Social media continues to be a promising research recruitment mechanism, but researchers still lack regulatory and ethical guidance to guide the design and review of such materials.

Watch this webinar for a thoughtful discussion of ethical and practical issues involved with social media recruitment, with case study illustrations on how to apply ethical principles.

Learning Objectives:

  • Outline the empirical literature on social media’s effectiveness as a research recruitment tool
  • Apply sound methodology for designing and reviewing social media recruitment materials
  • Describe how the ethical principles of respect for privacy and investigator transparency apply in the social media context
  • Explain potentially novel aspects of social media recruitment, including compliance with website policies and “Terms of Use,” recruiting from the online networks of current or potential participants, and managing online participant communication
