Question

Pick one study from the readings VULNERABLE/SPECIAL PARTICIPANT POPULATIONS and explain how it raises questions of voluntariness in relation to informed consent. Note: Clearly if people are not given sufficient information, they cannot give voluntary consent. I would like you to find a case that does not relate to withholding important information, but raises questions about voluntariness in another way

Answer 1

Every participant have their own right wheather they will concent to provide information or not.as researcher , in our study , we usually can not collect data from minors without parental and gurdian permission.All research participent must give their permission to be part of study and they must be provided pertinent information to make informed concent to participate.Research participent have right to withdraw himself or refuse without any penalty.A child may be part of Vulernable participent of population.for example, we are studing about the effect of socio-economic condition on his academic achievement in primary school chilldren. So here generally study conducted to know how child socio-economic background are deeply affected on cchild academic achievement.

Here some questions may raised if particular child are not willing to provide information regarding his socio-economic background.a informed concent is a person voluntarily agreeing to participate in research study after being fully informed .so , every person person have their own privacy and confidentiality where they don't want to expose their own information specially in vulernable or special participent .Because they are introvert type.when we study about child socio-economic condition , many child participent feel hesitate to tell due to poor background .so in informed concent , voluntries or willing to participation is must necessary.sometime many person are not given actual required information . So may be raises question of voluntries. Because in voluntaries , take the risk for benefits of others.
