An investigator planning to study behavioral changes during alcohol intoxication will pay subjects $600 for 6 hours of testing that includes drinking a moderate level of alcohol and completing several written questionnaires. He plans to recruit college students taking his courses, as well as economically disadvantaged and homeless people. Which of the following is the most important for the investigator to address before submitting the protocol to the IRB?

Potential undue influence or coercion of subjects

Explanation:

Coercion means influencing or making somebody to act or do something by forceful means or by threatening them.

In the context, a researcher requires human subjects to investigate or do a study on his research on the affect of alcohol intoxication in the behavioral changes of them. For this he will pay $600 to the subjects  for testing them for 6 hours.

Thus before submitting the protocol to the Institutional Review board, (IRB), he must be careful to note that none of his subjects either influenced forcefully or threaten to participate in his research work.  

panem is a communist totalitarian dictatorship where all the resources and how they are allocated belongs to the capitol. the districts exist only to provide goods and services for the capital and most of the citizens live in poverty. it is a police state where the "peacekeepers" use force and threats to keep the people under control. dissent is outlawed and those who disobey the law are executed, flogged, or turned into avoxes. the games are another means in which the ruling elite in the capitol exert their power over the districts. when reading the books i drew parallels between panem and the soviet union and north korea. in no way is panem capitalist. the people in the capitol are wealthy but the majority of them are involved in the government somehow. it was the same way in the former soviet union where bigwigs in the communist party and high ranking government officials were given access to goods, services, medical treatments not available to the general public. if you think panem has a capitalist economy you need to brush up on your economics.  

nothing

hope this !
