The first of these is known as informed consent, and requires that research participants be provided with information about all the events and procedures a study will involve before they agree to participate in it, and that they be informed that they are completely free to leave at any time.
The second principle is known as debriefing, and requires that research participants be given full information about all aspects of a study after they have participated in it. Debriefing ensures that participants in psychological research leave with a full understanding of its purpose, and that they receive any information that was temporarily withheld from them.
