1. A researcher conducting behavioral research collects individually
identifiable sensitive information about illicit drug use and other illegal
behaviors by surveying college students. One of the subjects is in an
automobile accident two weeks after participating in the research study.
Is this an example of an unanticipated problem that requires reporting to
the IRB? - correct answer - No, this does not need to be reported
because it was assessed by the researcher as unrelated to the research
study.
2. When an IRB is reviewing a research study and they are considering if a
potential subject population is vulnerable, they should consider: - correct
answer - Is there a power differential between researchers and
subjects?
3. The NBAC looks at characteristics individuals might have that would
prevent them from being able to provide voluntary informed consent.
The traits may be thought of as falling into six broad areas: cognitive or
communicative, institutional, deferential, medical, economic, and social.
Prospective research subjects who are not able to comprehend
information, deliberate, and make decisions about participation in a
proposed research study have a: - correct answer - Cognitive or
communicative vulnerability

4. Subjects with a serious illness may be at risk for exploitation because
they may be desperate for a possible cure. This is an example of: -
correct answer - Medical vulnerability
5. According to the authors, there are four common abuses that historically
are described as giving rise to vulnerability. Which response below
contains the correct four? - correct answer - Physical control, coercion,
undue influence, and manipulation
6. A subject participates in a drug study because treatment is available at
no or reduced cost, and he could not otherwise afford it. This is an
example of: - correct answer - Economic vulnerability
7. In considering NBAC's analytic approach, an otherwise competent
person who is acutely ill might be considered at especially high risk of
harm for: - correct answer - Situational cognitive vulnerability
8. Which is true of inducements in research? - correct answer -
Inducements constitute an "undue influence" if they alter a potential
subject's decision-making processes, such that they do not appropriately
weigh the risk-benefit relationship of the research.

9. Identify the following groups that are protected in the federal regulations
(45 CFR 46), specifically in Subparts B, C, and D with additional
protections: - correct answer - Pregnant women, prisoners, children
10. Which is an example of a situation where deferential vulnerability
might be a factor? - correct answer - A physician recruiting patients to be
subjects
11. Which of the following is an example of how the principle of
beneficence can be applied to a study employing human subjects? -
correct answer - Determining that the study has a maximization of
benefits and a minimization of risks.
12. The Belmont Report's principle of respect for persons incorporates at
least two ethical convictions: first, that individuals should be treated as
autonomous agents, and second, that: - correct answer - Persons with
diminished autonomy are entitled to protection.
13. Which of the following are the three principles discussed in the
Belmont Report? - correct answer - Respect for Persons, Beneficence,
Justice
14. A study was submitted to the IRB designed to evaluate the effect of
background noise on an individual's ability to concentrate and answer
questions. The IRB approved the study and consent form. The consent
form includes all the required information. The use of a consent form is
