the original question


Answer:
Internal review boards (IRBs) are present to assure that
subjects used in research are not also used to exploit the
subjects. The rights and welfare of the patients must come first,
and therefore those rights must be protected (University of
Pittsburgh, 2018). Internal review boards are present in many
universities, hospitals, and private companies.

Many groups can be considered vulnerable, including
students. There are many research projects done on university
campuses across the United States. Students are a convenient
group as they are on campus or online communities, and
frequently they are the group that is pursuing research to guide
their degrees. According to University of Nevada Las Vegas
(2019), regardless of the method of using students as research
groups, students can still feel obligated to be a part of the study,
for fear that their grade will be affected. Therefore it is
essential to follow the guidelines set out by the internal review
board to assure protection to the group that is being studied or
surveyed.

• Ensure that subjects are adequately informed of the nature of
the study.

• Ensure that subjects’ participation is voluntary.

• Ensure that the benefits of a study outweigh its risks.

• Ensure that the risks and benefits of the study are evenly
distributed among the possible subject populations.

• Suspend and report human subjects research activity that
violates regulations, policies, procedures, or an approved
protocol (University of Nevada Las Vegas, 2019).

This writer has previously collected data as a part of the
research in an undergraduate nursing degree and recalls the
guidance of the instructor was paramount. The entire survey had
to go before the universities IRB, and the project had to have a
lead investigator on the project who was the faculty advisor.
There had to be a packet filled out, laying out all of the
intentions of the group, and what was to be gained from the
research. Although students participated in the study, they were
not identified, and filling out the survey was an
acknowledgment of their informed consent of the project.
Students were given the surveys in a randomly chosen class that
was not a nursing class. They had the opportunity to hand in the
study filled in or blank, so their instructor would have no idea
who filled out the survey or not, and it would not affect their
grade. Research students collected the data, and it was kept
confidential. This was a rewarding process for the students
obtaining the data, and hopefully was also rewarding for the
students filling out the data.


Original Question:
Conducting research projects while ensuring the protection of
human subjects is necessary. What are some methods to protect
personal rights of someone in one of the groups that is labeled
as vulnerable? Justify your rationale
