What review category will my study be?

Your IRB decides, not you. Minimal-risk studies with adults using anonymous surveys often qualify for exempt or expedited review. Vulnerable populations, sensitive topics, deception or anything more than minimal risk usually go to full board. Guessing low and being wrong costs you a cycle.

This comes up on IRB Application Support, where it is answered in the context of the work itself.
