Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The best response is to assure your friend that sex researchers will inform him of what is involved in the study and he can choose whether he wants to take part after fully knowing what is involved. This ensures that he has the necessary information and can give informed consent. Choice A is not the best response because it suggests that everyone who participates in sex research will have embarrassing experiences, which is not necessarily true. Choice C is not accurate because it implies that it's worth doing anything, including things you may not want to do, to take part in sex research. Choice D is not helpful and may scare your friend unnecessarily.
