B

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Anonymity, the most secure means of protecting confidentiality, occurs when the researcher cannot link participants to their data. When anonymity is impossible, appropriate confidentiality procedures need to be implemented. A promise of confidentiality is a pledge that any information participants provide will not be publicly reported in a manner that identifies them and will not be made accessible to others.
