Question 1
Question
According to the federal regulations, which of the following studies meets the definition of research with
human subjects?
Your answer
A university designs an in-house study to improve the mentoring of women students in its engineering
department with the proposed outcome consisting of a report of recommendations for the department.
Result
Incorrect
Correct Answer
An experiment is proposed on the relationship between gender-related stereotypes in math and the
subsequent performance by males and females on math tests.
Comment
In the study of the effects of evoking stereotypes on subsequent performance, the researcher has a
research question and will be manipulating the behavior of individuals. An in-house study conducted
with the intention of improving a department's mentoring programs is not research with human
subjects, but rather program improvement. Receiving data with no identifiers is not research with
human subjects because there is no interaction or intervention with a living human being and no
collection of private identifiable data. In addition, creating a report for a membership organization does
not involve a research question, as defined by the federal regulations, so it too is not research with
human subjects.
Question 2
Question
According to the federal regulations, which of the following studies meets the definition of research with
human subjects?
Your answer
A researcher uses the Customs Office's passenger lists for ships bringing immigrants to the U.S. between
1820-1845 to track the numbers of immigrants from certain ethnic groups.
Result
Incorrect
Correct Answer
A developmental psychologist videotapes interactions between groups of toddlers and their caregivers to
determine which intervention methods most effectively manage aggression.
Comment
,The study of passenger lists is a study of individuals who are no longer living. A human subject is a living
individual. Questioning individuals to acquire data about the number of newly diagnosed HIV cases is
asking "about what" questions rather than "about whom" questions. Conducting a linguistic analysis of
comments posted on a public blog involves neither interaction with individuals nor collecting private
identified information and thus does not meet the definition of research with human subjects. The study
proposed by the developmental psychologist does meet the definition of research with human subjects.
It involves interactions with living individuals and is designed to contribute to a field of knowledge.

Correct Answer
Public information
Comment
Census data is a public source of data, and an individual could not reasonably expect it would not be
made public.
Question 4
Question
According to the federal regulations, which of the following studies meets the definition of research with
human subjects?
Your answer
A study of twenty 4th grade classrooms in which researchers ask the schools to systematically vary the
time of day reading is taught, and collect weekly assessments of reading comprehension for each child
over a three-month period.
Result
Correct
Comment
The study in the 4th grade classrooms about the relationship between the time of day reading is taught
and reading comprehension does meet the definition of research with human subjects. The study is
,designed to contribute to generalizable knowledge about student performance and the research
question can only be answered using a systematic investigation.
Information collected by the playground designer does not involve any information about human
subjects even though it does involve interaction between the designer and school staff. An analysis of
aggregate data doesn't involve interactions with living individuals nor the collection of private
identifiable data. An economic feasibility study will gather information from people with relevant
information and expertise but does not meet the definition of research with human subjects, because
the intention of the study is to answer "about what" questions rather than "about whom" questions.
Question 5
Question
According to the federal regulations, human subjects are living individuals about whom an investigator
conducting research obtains information through interaction or intervention with the individual, and
uses, studies, or analyzes the information; or:
Your answer
Obtains, uses, studies, analyzes, or generates identifiable public information.
Result
Incorrect
Correct Answer
Obtains, uses, studies, analyzes, or generates identifiable private information.
Comment
In order to meet the definition of research with human subjects a researcher must obtain data about a
living individual through interaction or intervention or, alternatively, obtain individually identifiable
private information. If a researcher obtains public information or de-identified information about
individuals, and has not interacted or intervened with the individuals, those individuals are not
considered human subjects for the purposes of the research.
