INTRODUCTION TO QUESTIONNAIRE ON INTER-DISCIPLINARY WORK IN THE AREA OF ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY

 

We (Marion Hersh and Gloria Moss) are conducting a pilot study on the extent to which inter-disciplinary research in the fields of assistive technology and rehabilitation engineering.  Marion is a lecturer in the Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering at the University of Glasgow, Scotland.  She works on assistive technology for deaf, blind and deafblind people, as well as issues relating to technology and ethics.  Gloria is a free-lance researcher, based in London, England.  She works on

 

There is some evidence that the nature of assistive technology and rehabilitation engineering encourage interdisciplinary work.  We are therefore using this questionnaire to investigate the extent to which interdisciplinary work does in fact take place in these fields, any barriers and good practice.

   

This questionnaire is both confidential and anonymous.  All data will be kept securely and only statistical data will be published.  We would be very grateful if you could spend a few minutes answering the questionnaire.  It should not take more than 20 minutes.  Unfortunately we cannot offer a reward – just the knowledge that you will be contributing to better understanding of the research process in assistive technology and rehabilitation engineering and the development of good practice. 

 

We hope to present the preliminary results of this work at the AAATE Conference in Dublin and would therefore be particularly grateful for speedy replies as the deadline for paper submission is 18 April 2003.  However we hope to produce a longer version of this paper for journal publication and will therefore also welcome later replies.

 

This questionnaire can be made available in alternative formats. Download MSWord version here.

If you would like a copy of the report, would like more information about the questionnaire, would be willing to discuss issues raised in the questionnaire in more depth, require or know researchers who require the quesionnaire in an alternative format please contact Marion Hersh (m.hersh@elec.gla.ac.uk).        

 

 

Thank you in advance for your help.
