Abstract

Hypothetical scenarios were used to assess the influence of the sensitivity of the study topic, payments, and study methods on research ethics committee (HREC) members’ approval of social research studies involving children. A total of 183 Australian HREC members completed an online survey. The higher the perceived sensitivity of the study topic, the less likely the study would be approved by an HREC member. HREC members were most likely to approve each of the hypothetical studies if no payment was offered. Payment was the most common reason for not approving the low risk studies, while risks were the most common reasons for not approving the more sensitive studies. Face-to-face interviews conducted at home with children elicited substantially higher rates of approval from HREC members with more sensitive study topics. Both HRECs and researchers may benefit from additional guidance on managing risks and payments for children and young people in research.
研究伦理委员会成员如何应对儿童的假设研究?MESSI研究结果
假设情景用于评估研究主题、付款和研究方法的敏感性对研究伦理委员会(HREC)成员批准涉及儿童的社会研究的影响。共有183名澳大利亚人权委员会成员完成了一项在线调查。研究主题的敏感性越高,该研究获得人权委员会成员批准的可能性就越小。如果没有付款,人权委员会成员最有可能批准每项假设研究。付款是不批准低风险研究的最常见原因,而风险是不批准更敏感研究的最常用原因。在家中对儿童进行的面对面访谈在更敏感的研究主题上获得了人权委员会成员的更高支持率。HREC和研究人员都可能受益于研究中关于管理儿童和年轻人风险和付款的额外指导。
