Review the main ideas about privacy and confidentiality. Be sure to ask any questions you have about the main ideas.
Privacy and confidentiality is about keeping research participants’ information (data) safe so other people don’t have research participants’ information.
Keeping people’s information private and confidential is important in research.
Researchers keep people’s information private and confidential before, during, and after people are in a research study.
You cannot share information you learn about research participants with anyone who isn’t on the research team.
We usually do research in private places to make sure information stays private and confidential.
Practice using these ideas with the “putting it into action” activities.
Your team can choose to do add-on activities related to privacy and confidentiality.
