A TV ad is recruiting subjects for free medical exams and medications and an incentive of $500 if they participate in a study on the effects of depression in young adults until the study ends. This recruitment best describes which situation?
1. Balance of risk-benefit ratio
2. Coercion
3. Informed consent
4. Confidentiality
2
Rationale 1: This situation does not exemplify a problem with the balance of risk-benefit ratio.
Rationale 2: Free medical care, medications, and money would entice subjects into a study they might decline if these incentives were not so great. The fact that the benefits are linked to completing the study makes this a strong example of coercion.
Rationale 3: Discussion of compensation is a part of informed consent, but in this situation, the amount of compensation might put pressure on a person to agree to participate in the study.
Rationale 4: The compensation listed has no impact on confidentiality.
