Ethics approval and consent to participate
: Data gathering was conducted with Institutional Review Board exemption granted by the Partners Human Research Committee. Two years later we elected to analyze these interviews in our study on social connectedness, and received Institutional Review Board approval from the University of Miami Human Subject Research Office. As the initial data-gathering portion of the project was part of a larger journalistic endeavor with voluntary involvement, local ethics committee approval was not sought. The Ministry of Health of Chiapas, Mexico reviewed our initial data gathering methods, verbal consent information, and manuscript and determined that local ethics approval was not required. This project received retroactive approval from the local government.
