Allocating Time for Consent and Debriefing
When designing a study, researchers must intentionally schedule generous amounts of time for conducting both the informed consent and debriefing procedures. Rushing through these critical ethical processes severely compromises their effectiveness, as participants require sufficient time to understand the study, ask clarifying questions, and properly absorb the disclosed information.

Which of the following best defines the process of informed consent in psychological research?
A researcher conducts a study on the effects of peer pressure on decision-making. Participants are led to believe they are in a group chat with other students making financial choices, but they are actually interacting with a computer program designed to pressure them into making risky decisions. After the session, the researcher tells each participant: "Thank you for participating. This study was about decision-making. Your data will be kept confidential and anonymous." Based on the ethical requirements for conducting research, evaluate the researcher's concluding statement to the participant.
