CITI Training Quiz Question and Answer |
Grade A+ | Complete Verified Guide
• Which type of IRB review does not require an IRB approval but does require a
determination by an individual designated with that task (such as an IRB member
or experienced staff person)? -✓✓Exempt
Exempt research is human subjects research that is "exempt" from the Common
Rule provisions. Per federal guidance, the recommendation is that researchers
should not be able to self-determine whether a study qualifies for exemption.
Institutional policy should clearly designate who is responsible for making
exemption determinations - and it could be an IRB member or experienced staff
person with knowledge of the exemption categories and the research activity.
Expedited and convened reviews both require IRB approval.
• A graduate student needs to conduct a research project for her master's thesis. She
is interested in the types of junk food available to the public. She plans to go to the
local convenience stores and ask the owners what types of junk food the store
normally stocks, and which are the biggest sellers. She will not collect identifiers.
This study would be subject to which type of review? -✓✓Not Human Subjects
This study would qualify as not human subjects because the data that the student is
collecting does not meet the definition of human subjects research. She is not
collecting any information about the store owners and her study seeks to find
information about the items in the store.
• A student plans on interviewing 15 principals in neighboring high schools. The
student plans to collect data about the personal experiences the principals have had
with disruptive students, including the types of disciplinary actions that were taken
(including decisions they may have personally made) and their feelings or thoughts
regarding whether those actions were appropriate. The research data collected
could have an impact on the principals' careers. The student will collect identifiers.
This study would be subject to which type of review? -✓✓Convened Review
This study would qualify for convened review because the IRB must conduct a
careful analysis. The study involves an interview where the data collected could
have an impact on the principals' careers and it contains subject identifiers.
