Answer to Question 1

C
Six-year-olds are too young to be able to give informed consent. The law, as well as the APA ethics principles require researchers to get informed consent from their legal guardians.

Answer to Question 2

A
The textbook discusses the functions of the debriefing concerning explaining why the deception was used, removing any stress produced by the research procedures, and indicates that students who are debriefed learn more about the research process than those who are not debriefed.
