Does research involving surveys and questionnaires need IRB approval?

Yes, the form of the study does not matter as much as the content of the study. In other words, the IRB determines the level of review based on the degree of risk to the participant. For example, a survey that asks participants to describe their criminal behavior would most likely be given a full review whereas an experiment involving varying types of management procedures would most likely be considered worthy of expedited review.

If you are unsure about your particular study, contact the IRB Administrator at 404.894.6942.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
