Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
In a single-blind study, only the subjects are unaware to which group they are assigned.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Truth telling (veracity) is a principle that requires healthcare personnel to tell the truth and the whole truth. When there is bad news to tell the client, the healthcare provider may be reluctant to tell the truth and answer questions honestly. The client has the right to know the truth, including the bad news. The principles of respect for person, beneficence, justice, and truth telling are integral to the issues of informed consent and risk-to-benefit ratio in research involving human subjects.
