Document Summary
Principle of voluntary consent: an ethical principle of social research that people should never participate in research unless they explicitly agreed to do so. Informed consent: an agreement by participants saying they"re willing to be in a study after they learned something about what the research procedure will involve. Special populations: people who lack the necessary cognitive competency to give real informed consent or people in a week position who might compromise their freedom to refuse to participate in a study. Crossover design: and designed to reduce creating any quality, is when a study group that gets no treatment in the first phase of the experiment becomes bigger but the treatment in the second phase and vice versa. Confidentiality: information has participant names attached but the researcher holds it in confidence or keep that secret from the public.
