Distinguish between the three types of injury as sources of risk in psychological research: physical, psychological, and social injury.

What will be an ideal response?


There is a risk of possible physical injury in psychological research if, for example, drugs are used. The more likely source of risk, however, is the possibility of psychological injury if the procedures induce serious mental or emotional stress in the participants. Social risk may occur if participants were to feel embarrassed or experience negative social consequences if their responses were made known to others.
