Question

How honest do you think teens are when they fill out a survey about their health behaviors? Do you

think they’re more likely to be honest if the survey is anonymous (no name attached) and confidential
(used only for the research study)? Why or why not? Why is it important for people to be honest when
reporting their health information on a self-assessment? What about when reporting their information
on a medical history form that will only be seen by a medical professional?

Answer 1

Answer:teens would be more likely to answer honestly if it’s anonymous.

Explanation: Teen are secretive in nature, wether it’s something that’ll get them in trouble or not. They might feel as if they’ll be judged. For example, if the survey was about reproductive health they’d most likely be dishonest if it was not anonymous for the fear or embarrassment or judgment from parents.
