16.(d)     The Research Programme Team would maintain the confidentiality of each Volunteer's 4 @ 'Segment #6 - Coping Skills' in the Two Research Programme Progress Reports  

In order to measure the Economic Return on Capex of the Hypothesis' reducing the Seven Problems, Section 16.(c) proposes 50 Volunteers complete -

*          3 @ 30 minute Hypothesis Test Reports using e-Research Techniques on the YELP Website during the 9 months Research Programme (prior to induction, after 3 months, after 9 months); and

*          a follow-up Hypothesis Test Report 12 months after the Research Programme ended.

At the completion of the 9 months Research Programme, the Research Programme Team would use the 3 @ 30 minute Hypothesis Test Reports from each of the 50 Volunteers to prepare the "End Of Research Programme Progress Report".

One year later, the Research Programme Team would use the 4th @ 30 minute Hypothesis Test Report from each of the 50 Volunteers to prepare the "One Year After Research Programme Progress Report".

Each of the Four Hypothesis Test Reports (to be completed by each Volunteer) would contain questions which cover the Seven Problems to measure the Hypothesis to treat each of the Seven Problems.  Hypothesis Test Reports would be in Seven Segments for the Seven Problems.

The Segment which covers any movement in each Volunteer's Coping Skills from the Rigorous Recreational Exercise Activity would be titled 'Segment #6 - Coping Skills' as treating Depression is the 6th of the Seven Problems.  Measuring movement in Coping Skills may utilise a range of stress management measurement techniques, incl meta-analyses of a medical treatment, drawn from The McSad Utility Measure for Depression Health States, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale, Beck Depression Inventory, and Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale etc.

The confidentiality of each Volunteer would be maintained, with the results of each Volunteer's 'Segment #6 - Coping Skills' in each of the Four Hypothesis Test Reports restricted to the Research Programme Team. 

Neither of the Two Research Programme Progress Reports would disclose any explicit findings from an individual Volunteers' 4 'Coping Segments' which identified a particular Volunteer without the written permission of the Volunteer.
