Translated so participants read them in their own language, and your ethics board sees the same wording.

Interview guides, surveys and instruments

Translated by a native speaker of the target language, keeping the meaning of each item rather than the word order.

Evaluation reports and research papers, priced by length.

25 languages available. Anything other than Spanish is quoted per project.
