Answer:
A) The researcher will not be interacting/intervening with subjects and the data has no identifiers.
Explanation:
IRB stands for Institutional Review Board. It is board which protects the rights of the human subjects in a research study made.
According to the IRB, a human subject is the living being on which a researcher or an investigator is conducting a research study.
In the context, a researcher wishes to conduct a study from the database collected publicly which have no identifiers and the IRB makes a point that individuals whose records will be reviewed does not meet the official definition given by the federal body regarding human subjects.
Thus it is confirmed by the fact that the researcher was not interacting with the subjects and the data which have no identifiers, that this research activity does not constitutes research based on human subjects.
Hence the correct option is (A).
Answer: B. False Consensus bias
Explanation: False Consensus bias occurs when an individual tends to overestimate the significance of his own personal idea, notion, values, stance believing every other person will concur with his or her decision. It is an attributional type of cognitive bias whereby an individual strongly believes that his idea or opinion is normal and thus other people should also reason, adopt or act with the same idea. When people or group negates their ideas or opinion, they feel such individual or group aren't doing the right thing because they feel their opinion is the 'normal' standard of reasoning.
