=
Has you target of study been informed of everything that will occur during the experiment? The participant should always know what is going to happen in the study and give their own personal consent to go along with it. When studying at the BLA it is not un-common to come across the use of animals in studies. In this case it is impossible for you to inform a rat for instance of what you will do to it.======

=
After an experiment has occurred (considering you haven't used animals) the participant must be debriefed on the whole experiment. This includes being told aim of the study, if there was any deception etc. They should be signed off and know exactly when the experiment is over.======

Withdrawal from a study
At any moment during a study the participant must have the right to withdraw from it if they feel they should.

=
If you don't tell the participant the true aim of the study from the start this is known as deception. It can be used to a minimal degree and should not cause stress to the participant. Any deception used in an experiment should be uncovered during the debriefing.======

When in an experiment the participant must always be assured that physical harm or stress will not come about them during the experiment. An experiment
should be tailored in such a way that this will not be an issue.
