Deception should only be used when its use is the only way to answer the research question. Research plans that involve the use of deception must be adequately justified and, in most cases, will require that research participants be informed about the deception at the conclusion of their participation.
Deception in psychological research is often stated as acceptable only when all of the following conditions are met: 1) no other nondeceptive method exists to study the phenomenon of interest; 2) the study makes significant contributions to scientific knowledge; 3) the deception is not expected to cause significant ...
Research studies occasionally involve the deception of participants. Deception is typically used to promote scientific validity, with participants provided with false or incomplete information about the research in order to obtain unbiased data with respect to the participants' attitudes and behavior.
Studies may use deception if it is necessary to answer the research question. If, in order to counter the demand effect, researchers cannot disclose their research hypotheses, the failure to disclose is not considered deception.
Deception and incomplete disclosure are permissible in research with scientific value that would not be otherwise feasible without the use of deceptive procedures.
The no-deception policy is based on ethical standards governing the safe participation of human subjects in research. Deceptive methodologies compromise participants' ability to give fully informed consent and have possible negative impacts on participants and research.
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.
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.
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.
