community engagement prior to seeking REB review.
A researcher at a Canadian institution eligible to receive Agency funding wishes to determine the
frequency of cannabis consumption among high school students in Canada. The researcher will create a
website that includes a secure link to a survey for students wishing to participate in the research. For
scientific reasons, only students who have already used cannabis will be invited to participate and
respond anonymously to the survey (please answer all questions by YES or NO).
A. Some REB members do not agree with the methodological decision of the researcher to exclude from
the study students who have never used cannabis, because they believe that it will diminish the
likelihood that the researcher can publish the results in a prestigious journal. Based on this reason,
should the REB require that the researcher change the protocol? - Correct Answer No

If the REB determines that the targeted population and prospective participants have the capacity to
decide for themselves to participate in this study, must the REB also require that the researcher seek the
authorization of a parent or authorized third party prior to the participation of minors in this context? -

The REB administrator sees the proposed study as minimal risk research and decides to do a delegated
review instead of a full board REB review. Is the REB administrator correct in thinking this is minimal risk
research and that delegated review is acceptable in this case? - Correct Answer No

The researcher believes that some of the high school students who will respond to the survey may come
from an Indigenous community. However, the researcher does not intend to make Indigeneity an
element of their analysis of the findings. Moreover, it will not be possible for the researcher to know
which participants are from Indigenous communities, because the survey does not include socio-
demographic questions that would allow such description - Correct Answer No

The researcher proposes to ask participants to provide minimal information about themselves, such as
sex, gender, age, and postal code (indirect identifiers). However, the participants will not be required to
provide direct identifiers such as their name and the researcher will not collect their IP address.
