Answer 9

Ans: Answer would ideally include: In situations involving minors (i.e., individuals under the age of 18), participants must provide assent. The rationale for the difference in terminology is that adults are able to consent to participate in research, meaning that they can decide for themselves whether they want to participate or not. Children cannot legally give consent to participate in research. Therefore, the parent or legal guardian must give permission for a child to participate; the child can only assent to participate.

Answer 40

Ans: Answer would ideally include: A pilot test is a trial run of the data collection process to determine if any revisions should be made before actual data collection occurs. Using a small group--perhaps 15–20 individuals--selected from the population of interest, the cover letter and survey are distributed and completed. Upon completion, the researcher seeks feedback from the participants. This process gives the researcher an idea of how long it might take individuals to complete the instrument. It also provides feedback about specific questions that may need revision prior to actual data collection.
