Detailed explanation-1: -Right to withdraw As part of their briefing prior to giving consent to partake, participants must be informed that they can leave the study at any point if they wish, and are under no obligation to disclose a reason why if they do.
Detailed explanation-2: -When psychologists believe that there may have been an ethical violation by another psychologist, they attempt to resolve the issue by bringing it to the attention of that individual, if an informal resolution appears appropriate and the intervention does not violate any confidentiality rights that may be involved.
Detailed explanation-3: -A participant can leave a research study at any time. When withdrawing from the study, the participant should let the research team know that he/she/they wishes to withdraw.
