Question 1
Risk of harm in social and behavioral sciences generally fall in three categories, which are:
Breach of confidentiality, loss of autonomy, and study procedures
Invasion of privacy, breach of confidentiality, and study procedures
Invasion of privacy, adverse reaction to study drug, and discrimination
Study procedures, breach of confidentiality, and loss of employment
Question 2
Identify the example of when situation and time are key to assessing risk of harm in a research study:
A study on the efficacy of a behavioral intervention for smoking cessation that involves both adults and teenagers (who are underage to purchase tobacco) in the United States
A study asking women if they have completed an advanced degree and what city they were born in
A survey with educators on their experience about implementation of a novel preschool program
Research on the prevalence of retired individuals who have been harassed in different academic disciplines
Question 3
A researcher wants to do a web-based survey of college students to collect information about their sexual behavior and drug use. Direct identifiers will not be collected; however, IP addresses may be present in the data set. Risk of harm should be evaluated by:
Neither the magnitude or probability of harm.
Both the magnitude (or severity) and the probability (or likelihood) of harm.
Solely by the probability of expected harm.
Solely by the magnitude or severity of expected harm.
Question 4
If disclosure of a subject’s involvement in a specific research study can be potentially harmful to the subject, and the consent form is the only record linking the subject to the research, which of the following would be most helpful:
Code the subjects’ responses.
Obtain a waiver of documentation of informed consent.
Obtain a Certificate of Confidentiality.
Have the subject sign the consent form under an assumed name.
Question 5
Additional safeguards that may be included in a social and behavioral study may include:
Requiring a legally authorized representative to provide signed consent for an incapacitated subject.
Frequent monitoring of the subject’s heart through ECG after administration of the study drug.
Remove all direct identifiers from the data as soon as possible.
Requiring pregnancy tests before administration of the study drug.
