Applied Impact Evaluation
Risk-benefit analysis is a systematic approach used to evaluate the potential risks and benefits associated with a particular intervention, project, or decision. This process helps researchers weigh the likelihood of adverse outcomes against the potential positive impacts, ensuring that ethical considerations are taken into account when designing experimental studies. By conducting a thorough risk-benefit analysis, researchers can justify their study designs and protect participants from unnecessary harm while maximizing the overall societal benefits.
