FAQ

Examples of Active Deceptive Research Participants complete a quiz and are falsely told that they did poorly, regardless of their performance. Participants who do not know they are in a research study are observed to see how they behave when they find valuables (e.g., wallet, laptop) unattended in a public location.

Active deception involves intentionally providing inaccurate or false information to participants (e.g., one study team member tells participants that they will be engaged in a cooperative task with other participants, but instead they will be interacting with other members of the study team).

Some forms of deception include: Lies: making up information or giving information that is the opposite or very different from the truth. Equivocations: making an indirect, ambiguous, or contradictory statement.

Deception is when a researcher gives false information to subjects or intentionally misleads them about some key aspect of the research. Examples include: • Subjects complete a quiz, and are falsely told that they did very poorly, regardless of their actual performance.

The Investigation Committee must consider if (a) there was a significant departure from accepted practices of the relevant research community; and (b) the misconduct was committed intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly; and (c) the allegation was proven by a preponderance of the evidence.

Deception or incomplete disclosure should only be used when no reasonably effective, alternative methods are available to achieve the goals of the research. Only study procedures that involve minimal risks (as determined by the IRB) can include deception or incomplete disclosure.

§ 7704. Disposition of vehicle or vehicle part with altered vehicle identification number.

--A person commits a misdemeanor of the first degree if, knowing that he has no privilege to do so, he falsifies, destroys, removes or conceals any writing or record, or distinguishing mark or brand or other identification with intent to deceive or injure anyone or to conceal any wrongdoing.

In general, deception is not acceptable if, in the judgment of the IRB, the participant may have declined to participate had they been informed of the true purpose of the research.
