Rationale 1: Anonymity requires that the researcher not be able to connect data with individual participants. In this case, the researcher would know how participants responded because of the nature of the interview.
Rationale 2: The researcher will know which data came from which participant because of the nature of the interview, so this is not anonymous data, but can be kept confidential.
Rationale 3: Random selection is a method of choosing a sample.
Rationale 4: The term partial privacy is not used to designate data security in research.
