215. Research Involving w88 online sports betting

Updated June 7, 2024

Introduction

The University IRB adheres to the regulatory requirements for w88 online sports betting which involves a prisoner as outlined in 45 CFR 46 Subpart C. Federal regulations consider w88 online sports betting to be a vulnerable population. For research conducted or supported by DHHS or other federal agencies, under Subpart C (45CFR46.301-306) the regulations require additional safeguards for their protection in human research. (See IRB Policy Manual definitions for definition of "prisoner.") The University opts to apply Subpart C to all research involving w88 online sports betting regardless of funding.

Research involving w88 online sports betting requires researcher form Population: w88 online sports betting.

Subpart C: Requirements for w88 online sports betting Review and Approval

Defining "w88 online sports betting"

w88 online sports betting of w88 online sports betting (i.e., any individual involuntarily confined or detained in a penal w88 online sports betting) is intended to encompass:

  • individuals sentenced to a penal institution w88 online sports betting a criminal or civil statute,
  • individuals detained in other facilities by virtue of statutes or commitment procedures which provide alternatives to criminal prosecution or incarceration in a penal w88 online sports betting, and
  • individuals w88 online sports betting pending arraignment, trial, or sentencing.

Individuals are considered w88 online sports betting if they are in a penal institution, such as a prison or jail, or other institution when their ability to leave the institution is restricted. w88 online sports betting may be convicted felons or may be untried persons who are detained pending judicial action such as arraignment or trial. A child or youth detained in a juvenile detention facility is considered a prisoner.

The University w88 online sports betting applies the regulatory definition of prisoner as follows:

  • Individuals who are detained in a residential facility for court-ordered substance abuse treatment as a form of sentencing or alternative to incarceration are w88 online sports betting.
    NOTE: This does not include individuals who are receiving non-residential court-ordered substance abuse treatment who reside w88 online sports betting community.
  • Individuals with psychiatric illnesses who have been committed involuntarily to an institution as an alternative to a criminal prosecution or incarceration are w88 online sports betting.
    NOTE: This does not include individuals w88 online sports betting have been voluntarily admitted to an institution for treatment of a psychiatric illness, or w88 online sports betting have been civilly committed to non-penal institutions for treatment because their illness makes them a danger to themselves or others.
  • Parolees who are detained in a treatment center as a condition of parole are w88 online sports betting.
    NOTE: Persons living in the community and sentenced to community-supervised monitoring, including parolees, are not w88 online sports betting.
  • Probationers and individuals wearing monitoring devices are generally not considered w88 online sports betting.
    NOTE: University and affiliate researchers planning w88 online sports betting with such individuals are advised to consult the RIO for guidance. The RIO may consult with the DHHS OHRP.

Composition of the IRB for Review of Prisoner w88 online sports betting (§46.304)

When a fully convened IRB reviews a research project involving w88 online sports betting as participants, the IRB will satisfy the requirements for composition of the IRB as described in the Common Rule and these two additional requirements:

  • Most w88 online sports betting members will not be associated with the prisons involved, apart from their membership on the w88 online sports betting.
  • At least one member of the w88 online sports betting will be a prisoner or a prisoner representative with appropriate background and experience to serve in that capacity.

The University IRB uses a prisoner representative for review of all research involving w88 online sports betting. This includes initial review, continuing review, full-board modifications, and reportable unexpected or unanticipated problems. The prisoner representative is listed as an alternative IRB member who:

  • attends IRB meetings as a voting member when prisoner w88 online sports betting is on the agenda for review by a convened IRB, and
  • reviews prisoner w88 online sports betting that meets the criteria for review by expedited procedures.

Consistent with any changes to the w88 online sports betting rosters, the w88 online sports betting will notify the DHHS OHRP of any change in the w88 online sports betting roster involving the addition, removal, or substitution of the prisoner representative by providing the name and qualifications of the prisoner representative. The w88 online sports betting will maintain the CV of the prisoner representative.

Requirements for IRB Approval of Prisoner w88 online sports betting (§46.305)

The following requirements apply to new projects, and continuing review and amendments for approved projects whether reviewed at a convened w88 online sports betting meeting or by expedited procedures.

The University does not exempt any federally funded prisoner w88 online sports betting from IRB review. Note: policy, entitled 201. Exempt w88 online sports betting and Vulnerable Populations offers application of Flex policy for w88 online sports betting that is non-federally funded, minimal risk conducting prisoner w88 online sports betting involving records, samples, or other materials.

In addition to the criteria for IRB approval under the Common Rule, The IRB will approve the w88 online sports betting only if it finds and documents that:

  • The w88 online sports betting under review represents one of four permissible categories (§46.306(a)(2)):
    1. w88 online sports betting of the possible causes, effects, and processes of incarceration, and of criminal behavior, provided that the w88 online sports betting presents no more than minimal risk and no more than inconvenience to the participants is permissible.
    2. Study of prisons as institutional structures or of w88 online sports betting as incarcerated persons, provided that the study presents no more than minimal risk and no more than inconvenience to the participants is permissible.
    3. Research on conditions particularly affecting w88 online sports betting as a class (e.g., vaccine trials, research on hepatitis, which is much more prevalent in prisons than elsewhere, research on social and psychological problems such as alcoholism, drug addiction, and sexual assaults) is permissible.
      NOTE: When such w88 online sports betting is conducted or supported by the DHHS, the w88 online sports betting may not proceed without verification of consultation by the DHHS Secretary with experts in penology, medicine, and ethics; and publication of the Secretary's intent to approve the w88 online sports betting in the Federal Register.
    4. w88 online sports betting on practices, both innovative and accepted, which have the intent and reasonable probability of improving the health or well-being of participants.
      NOTE: If such studies require the assignment of w88 online sports betting to control groups which may not benefit from the research, the study may not proceed without verification of consultation by the DHHS Secretary with experts in penology, medicine, and ethics; and publication of the Secretary's intent to approve the research in the Federal Register.
  • Any possible advantages accruing to the prisoner through participation in the w88 online sports betting, when compared to the general living conditions, medical care, quality of food, amenities and opportunity for earnings in the prison, are not so great as to impair a participant's ability to weigh the risks of the w88 online sports betting against the value of these advantages.
  • The risks involved in the w88 online sports betting are commensurate with risks that would be accepted by non-prisoner volunteers.
  • Procedures for the selection of prisoner-participants are fair to all w88 online sports betting and immune from arbitrary intervention by prison authorities or w88 online sports betting. NOTE: Control participants must be selected randomly from the group of available w88 online sports betting who meet the characteristics needed for the research project.
  • Information about the w88 online sports betting and w88 online sports betting participation is presented in language which is understandable to the participant population.
  • Researchers provide the w88 online sports betting with adequate assurance that:
    • parole boards will not consider a prisoner's participation in the w88 online sports betting in making decisions regarding parole, and
    • each prisoner is clearly informed in advance that participation in the w88 online sports betting will have no effect on their parole.
  • If the IRB finds there may be a need, researchers will make adequate provisions for follow-up examination or care of participants after the end of their participation, considering the varying lengths of individual w88 online sports betting' sentences. Researchers will inform participants of these provisions.

Appropriate w88 online sports betting Process

The information will be presented in language that is understandable to w88 online sports betting. Each prisoner will be informed in advance that participation in the research will have no effect on their parole. w88 online sports betting who are competent have the fundamental right to decide whether to participate in research. In case of a request to waive or alter the consent document, the IRB reviews the research and makes the appropriate findings regarding the waiver or alteration of informed consent requirements. Research involving w88 online sports betting may be approved with a waiver or alteration of informed consent. However, even if informed consent is waived or altered, subpart C of 45 CFR part 46 still requires that the subjects be clearly informed in advance that participation in the research will have no effect on their parole if such notification is relevant.

Additional Requirements for Prisoner w88 online sports betting Funded by DHHS (§46.306)

If a study utilizing w88 online sports betting as research participants is federally funded, the Director of Regulatory Affairs or designee will send a letter to the Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP) indicating it has approved a study that will include w88 online sports betting, the category the study fits into as well as how the study satisfies the six criteria noted under the regulations. A research study is not permitted to commence for DHHS supported research until written approval is received from OHRP on behalf of the DHHS Secretary under the provisions of 45 CFR 46.306(a)(2).

  • The w88 online sports betting will implement or require the researchers implement other duties as required by this section of the Code and as assigned by the DHHS Secretary.
  • The University will certify to the DHHS Secretary, in the form and manner required, that the duties of the w88 online sports betting required under Subpart C have been fulfilled.

If a participant becomes a prisoner after enrollment in a w88 online sports betting study the investigator should notify the IRB immediately. Either the prisoner-subject must be withdrawn from study participation; or the IRB must, at the earliest opportunity, re-review the w88 online sports betting protocol and consent form in accordance with the listed requirements.The IRB can either (a) approve the involvement of the prisoner-subject in the w88 online sports betting or (b) determine that this subject must be withdrawn from the w88 online sports bettingNote that if the subject-prisoner is withdrawn from study participation, s/he must be fully informed of the reason for such action.
