More than minimal risk: Click here to enter text that briefly describes the risk.(For minimal and more than minimal risk, briefly explain the reason for the response. Additional details will be provided later regarding the management of the risk.)Some Guidelines for Determining Risk. Risk relates to the probability of harm or injury (physical, psychological, social, economic, legal) occurring as a result of participation in a research study. Risks also include invasion of privacy and loss of confidentiality. Types of risk include: (1) physical - exposure to minor pain, discomfort or injury from procedures that may be permanent or transient; (2) psychological - undesired changes in thought processes and emotion (e.g. episodes of depression, confusion, feelings of guilt, stress and loss of self-esteem, invasion of privacy), which may be transitory, recurrent or permanent; (3) social, legal and economic harm - invasions of privacy and breaches of confidentiality may result on embarrassment within one’s business or social group, loss of employment, loss of insurability or criminal prosecution. Areas of particular sensitivity include HIV / AIDS, information regarding alcohol or drug abuse, mental illness, illegal activities and sexual behavior. A risk is minimal where the probability and magnitude of harm or discomfort anticipated in the proposed research are not greater, in and of themselves, than those ordinarily encountered in daily life or during the performance of routine physical or psychological examinations or tests. Loss of privacy is a risk to be considered. Will participants be exposed to deception? ? Yes ? NoIf yes, describe how will the participants be debriefed upon study completion?
