RESEARCH STUDY 4.1

Dr. Kline is planning on conducting a study next semester. He is curious as to whether sleep deprivation is associated with poorer cognitive performance. For example, if you sleep poorly the night before a big exam, will you do worse? Dr. Kline is especially curious about selective sleep deprivation, where people are kept from entering REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. Using an electroencephalograph (EEG) to monitor brain waves, he plans to let participants sleep until they enter REM sleep and then he will wake them. After the participants are awake for one minute, Dr. Kline plans to let them return to sleep. As they enter REM sleep again, he will wake them again and follow the same procedure. He plans to do this through the entire eight-hour sleep session. The following morning, participants will be asked to take a sample SAT test.

Refer to Research Study 4.1 to answer the following thirteen questions.

6. Dr. Kline asks his participants to provide informed consent. Doing this is adhering to which principle of the Belmont Report?

a.	The principle of beneficence	c.	The principle of integrity
b.	The principle of justice	d.	The principle of respect for persons

7. Imagine that Dr. Kline is a clinical psychologist who volunteers his time at a local prison counseling several inmates. Because of his connections there, he is considering using prisoners as his participants. Why is this choice potentially problematic?

b.	Prisoners do not make good participants since they may not tell the truth.
c.	Prisoners are unable to give informed consent.
