Human Subjects |  | Case Study Review: Undergraduates |
|  |  | Are undergraduate students appropriate for conducting focus group sessions with high school students where illegal behaviors might be discussed? The investigator is responsible for ensuring that research personnel are adequately trained to perform their duties, and that they carry out their duties in an ethical and responsible manner. At a minimum, the undergraduates involved should receive instruction in issues of protecting confidentiality and privacy, and in conducting focus group sessions. Ideally, the investigator should be present to assist when needed.
