What we do
and How do we do it?
SRDAR has the capacity to conduct interviews using various
mediums such as optical mark recognition data forms, mail-based
and web-based surveys. The main production area of SRDAR
occupies 1,100 square feet on the 1st floor of the Carlton House
and houses 17 workstations. Each is equipped with telephone and
computer equipment that is connected to the RPCI information
network and fitted with word processing and presentation,
statistical analysis (SPSS), and survey execution (CASES)
software. Staff members are trained on IRB-approved,
project-specific protocols and the protection of human research
subjects. Ongoing supervision, training, quality assurance and
quality control measures are in place to ensure the integrity of
our data.
