Resumo

Adolescence Human subjects' protection Parental permission School based survey Measures to protect persons involved in research have often been taken as a reaction to research abuse.The modern history of human subjects' protection in research is usually traced from the promulgation of the Nuremberg Code in 1947.The Code begins with the principle of informed consent:The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential.This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision [italics added].
