Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Unrelieved pain is a top concern of researchers. A potential feeling of sadness, taking 30 minutes of the participant's time, and the cost of bus fare or gas are all concerns, but are not as costly to the participant as unrelieved pain.
A potential feeling of sadness is less likely to be as costly to the participant as unrelieved physical pain.
The amount of time to complete the tool is not as costly to the participant as unrelieved physical pain.
The cost of bus fare or gas to travel to the research facility is less costly to the participant than unrelieved chronic pain.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
A record review would be categorized as risking no harm to the subject.
The risk of permanent damage might occur in biomedical studies.
Temporary discomfort is described as similar to what the subject would encounter in his or her daily life and is temporary.
Unusual levels of temporary discomfort means that the subjects will experience some discomfort both during the study and after their participation in the study is over.
