FAQ
(a) Psychologists do not conduct a study involving deception unless they have determined that the use of deceptive techniques is justified by the study's significant prospective scientific, educational, or applied value and that effective nondeceptive alternative procedures are not feasible.
The first step in managing deception with clients is recognizing that deception has occurred. The second step is determining what form the deception has taken (blatant, deflecting, diminishing, falsification or concealment). Third, the counselor must decide if the deception must be confronted.
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.
A few ways deception might be used is by misrepresenting the purpose of the research, using participants, and observing participants without their knowledge.
For a benign deception, most participants likely won't be upset, but more intense deception activities may require an in-depth debriefing process. After the participants are fully debriefed, you are required to provide a post-debrief consent form which asks for participants to again consent to participate in the study.

The study must not involve more than minimal risk to the subjects. The use of deceptive methods must be justified by the study's significant prospective scientific, educational, or applied value.
The debriefing is an essential part of the informed consent process and is mandatory when the research study involves use of deception. The debriefing provides participants with a full explanation of the hypothesis being tested, procedures to deceive participants and the reason(s) why it was necessary to deceive them.
For studies involving deception, debriefing materials should explain the design and procedures used for deception, and the reason(s) why deception was necessary. After debriefing participants in studies that have involved deception, it may be necessary to re-consent participants.
