Survey Request Submission Form

Please use the below form to submit your survey request. Upon completion of this form, you will be contacted in the next few business days confirming receipt of the survey as well as the status of the review.


Please note: the SUO receives a number of requests each year and it cannot accommodate all of them. There is also a 21-day mandatory wait period between distributions and so, if approved, your survey may not be sent immediately depending on the number of surveys already in the queue.

The submitter will receive all status updates during the survey's review, including any suggested edits or comments, and will be notified if the survey is approved.

Membership survey requests must include an SUO member as the principal investigator or an integral part of the investigative team. Please provide the name of at least one SUO member who is part of the study.

Survey requests submitted should include:


  • An introductory statement that will be sent to the membership explaining the purpose of the survey.
  • A clearly delineated proposed hypothesis for the survey. This may not be appropriate to provide to those who are completing the survey if it will bias replies.
  • Estimated time to complete the survey. It is highly recommended that the survey take less than 10 minutes to complete.
  • Surveys should be limited in length to a maximum of 10 questions, unless justification for additional questions can be provided.
  • Plan for utilization of survey results.
  • A link to the survey (if available) or all of the draft questions that will be included in the survey.
