When weighing risks against benefits in psychological research, investigators must consider the potential impacts on the participants themselves. Risks to participants may include a treatment failing to help or causing harm, a procedure resulting in physical or psychological distress, or a violation of their right to privacy. Conversely, potential benefits can encompass receiving a helpful treatment, learning about the field of psychology, experiencing the satisfaction of contributing to scientific knowledge, and receiving compensation such as money or course credit.
