Discussion Assignment Week 3: The Question of Justifiable Risk

Student Name: Angie Woods

Are there ever any societal benefits from subjecting children to greater than minimal risk(s) (as defined by the OHRP) in research? Explain my reasoning by identifying the benefits and the risks that form the basis of my response and citing the appropriate resources to validate your thinking. I would say, Yes because in everything thing that people may do or may want to know about it all comes from some type of way in reaching to find out the reason to something to benefit  from gaining a better guide decision making. As the author states in the book on page 78 in our text book “Doing Early Childhood Research,” In approving a research project, an important factor to guide decision- making about its ethics is the risk/benefit equation. The idea that’s the greater benefit to be gained from a piece of research, the risks are acceptable. So actually all researches are a risk but which anyone that I may gain from can may be benefiting to me.

That’s just like if I may have a bad cold but there is so many cold medications out there so I go and try one. The first three may not have help me so I go and try another type of medication but that one helped me out the most. Also made me feel a whole lot better than what I started out with trying.  Once again the author stated in the text book “Doing Early Childhood Research,” on page 78, Risk of research on children. Can include psychological risk, ranging from a feeling of temporary worry to longer lasting emotional disturbance, and include upsetting relationships within a family. I just feel when working with children, it is best to establish a good relationship with families to have a better benefit. So that their want be too many risk. As I try to have the important factors to gain in decision making about any ethics in the risk/benefit equation.
