Research

Research based on member responses

The ACPIN membership database

Those wishing to contact ACPIN members can commission selective distribution of a survey or other acceptable material.

Only members who have agreed to take part in research or receive commercial mailings will be contacted by ACPIN. This will be by email according to each recipient’s preference. Numbers fluctuate but there are over three thousand members in total.   A mailing can be split into:

ACPIN region (17 in total)

 Speciality (Acquired Brain Injury, MS, Parkinson’s Disease, Spinal Injuries, Stroke, Other)

 Full, associate or student members

Please contact the Membership Administrator in the first instance for advice regarding pricing. The mailing to members cannot be undertaken until receipt of payment for the full amount (cheques payable to ACPIN) and confirmation of ethical approval, where appropriate. The charges are listed below. A copy of the database application form must also be sent at the same time as payment. Please complete this as comprehensively as possible.

For genuine research undertaken personally by the commissioner, charges are based on their status

 Full ACPIN members GBP£0.10 per name

 Associate members GBP£0.10 per name

 Students who are ACPIN members: GBP£5 for 50 names

 Students who are not ACPIN members: GBP£8 for 50 names

The above commissioners are required to produce a brief report providing feedback on any issues or changes raised by the recipients of the survey. In addition, they are invited to submit an abstract / study summary for potential inclusion in Synapse or for consideration for inclusion in an ACPIN national or regional event.
