CITI Assessing Risk - SBE Practice Test

A study collecting identifiable data from principals about disciplinary actions and their appropriateness would be subject to a convened review because it involves the potential for more than minimal risk to the participants. This type of research typically includes sensitive information, which raises ethical considerations regarding confidentiality, privacy, and the potential impact of the findings on the subjects involved. The convened review process, which involves a full board of reviewers, is designed to carefully consider these risks and ensure that the study adheres to ethical guidelines and regulations. This thorough examination is crucial when dealing with identifiable data, particularly when that data concerns sensitive subjects like disciplinary actions. The convened board can assess the risks and benefits more comprehensively, providing the necessary oversight to protect participants’ rights and welfare throughout the research process.
