J S's Review Sourced from Google
Results of surveys conducted by this company are not valid and cannot be useful because their methodologies are wildly unethical. I received several requests by mail to participate in a survey being conducted by this company on behalf of OHA. I chose NOT to participate in the survey, which asked personal and confidential questions about mental health history and substance use, because i am a practicing psychotherapist, and I do not make these kinds of disclosures to anyone who is not my doctor.Eventually, several "researchers" (marketers) showed up at my home address to pressure me into responding to their survey, even noticing the "no solicitation, please" sign on my door and commenting "we're not here to sell anything." First of all, anyone door knocking as part of a research study should have a baseline understanding of what the word "solicit" means, which means TO ASK FOR SOMETHING, like for example, responses to a survey. Secondly, no survey in which participants are "selected" and then pressured to make disclosures about their personal and confidential health information at the threshold of their own homes is ethical. if responses were not collected ethically, then i simply do not see how the results of such a survey could be unbiased and informative in any way. As a tax payer whose dollars likely contributed to the hiring of this firm, i'm angry about the waste of money, and also about being harassed at my own home. Furthermore, it upsets me that the results of surveys that have not passed through any formal review process can be published and presented alongside information that has. this is precisely the kind of thing that undermines legitimate and useful research, biasing lawmakers and constituents alike. Ick.
