Trust and methodology

We take research seriously. So should you.

Anonymity

Most surveys are anonymous. You provide an answer; we receive it without it being tied to you, unless you opt in to share contact information for follow-up.

Data handling

  • Survey responses are stored separately from any contact information you choose to share.
  • We do not sell survey data. We do not share survey data with advertisers. We do not use survey data for ad targeting.
  • Aggregate findings may be published in papers, blog posts, or white papers. Individual responses are never identifiable in published findings.

IRB

Surveys are voluntary research, not clinical trials. They do not require IRB review under standard HHS regulations for non-interventional, anonymous research. For studies that interact with patients or collect identifiable health information, we work under appropriate IRB oversight separately. Those studies are not on this page.

Why we are doing this

  • Evidence base for DCS

    The Dementia Caregiver Syndrome framework needs validation against real-world caregiver experience and clinical opinion. Surveys are one input.

  • Product fit

    Pricing, feature priorities, and design decisions are better when grounded in caregiver voice, not assumption.

  • Policy

    The clinical and economic case for caregiver support is stronger when supported by data.

Results

We will publish results here as they become available.

Aggregated, anonymized findings get posted to this page when a study closes and analysis is complete. If you would like to be notified when a result drops, leave us your email.
