Abstract: The Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) receives requests from researchers to conduct non-DoDEA sponsored research studies in DoDEA schools, districts, and/or areas. To review the proposed research requests, DoDEA developed DoDEA Form 2071.3-F1, "Research Study Request," in DoDEA Administrative Instruction 2071.3, to collect information about the researcher, the research project, audience, timeline, and the statistical analyses that will be conducted during the proposed research study. The information gathered through this form is necessary to ensure that the proposed non-DoDEA sponsored research is of sound technical quality, adheres to all federal laws, and does not unduly interfere with the classroom instructional process.
