Answer 2

Answer:

option a: Confidentiality of the individual subject's responses

Explanation:

in every research studies, confidentiality in terms of subject used for an experiment is very important. confidentiality in research is when a  research keeps the details about his subject private and allow non one have access to it.anonymous data is usually the best and most easiest way to promote and boast confidentiality in research.

Researchers  usually use different kind of ways to hide their subject data (confidential). they  employ a  way by keeping the records of subject safe with the use of password protected files, encryption when sending information over the internet, e.t.c.  subjects  sometimes can be identified by names,  by mixture of information on subjects e.t.c. therefore, researchers do only report aggregate findings and not the individual-level data of the subject to the  general view/public.
