Step 5. Determine Review Category

STEP 5. DETERMINE REVIEW CATEGORY

When applying for IRB approval, researchers must apply under a particular category of research that delineates the type of IRB review. The three categories-- exempt, expedited, and full-- are defined by the federal government and are based upon risk to subjects. Review the Decision Matrix and the Procedures for Exempt, Expedited, and Full Review to determine the likely review category your research belongs in. Please note the IRB reserves the right to re-categorize the study upon review of the application materials.
