FAQ
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.
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.
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.
A few ways deception might be used is by misrepresenting the purpose of the research, using participants, and observing participants without their knowledge. ing to the APA's guidelines, special precautions must be taken when using deception.
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.
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.
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.
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).
When is it acceptable to use deception in research? It is appropriate to use deception to attempt to facilitate scientific validity when there is no other way to test one's hypothesis with full disclosure. Deception is used to measure something that could not otherwise be measured without some degree of manipulation.
