Comparing and contrasting of Consent Form

Each type of consent varies according to the research study being conducted. The consent research from for the clinical study contains a lot of information which signifies the seriousness and how detailed the subject will be. The social science consent is not as detailed as the clinical study since this is a research that is meant to ensure that the rate of taking ice cream by the freshmen is reduced to a significant rate. The information contained in the medical research is detailed in order to give a wide perspective on the cancer menace. The research for medical treatment is case sensitive and therefore requires a significant amount of resources and time to ensure it is very quality (Rowbotham et al., 2013). Also, due to the sensitivity of the medical research, the participants are supposed to undergo some level of treatment and training to ensure that they are well conversant with the environment. No special case is required for the social science research since the only requirement is to ensure that the consent is duly signed and the participants can start working on the research. The individual carrying out the medical research has the obligation to contact the more experienced medical practitioners in case of a query since there will be no room for errors with the research.

Both types of research are according to the standards and recommendation for quality continuity of practice. For the medical research, the person carrying out the research can decide to quit at any time as according to how he or she wants and there will be no consequences with regards to the relationship with the health institution (Curley et al., 2014). This is the same case with the social sciences where each participant has the capacity and free will to quit if they do not feel a need to continue with the research and there will be no consequences on the participant. Both of the consent forms require the participants to sign the consent to participate in the research at their own free will.

Consent regarding the participation in the clinical study and the social sciences are used to ensure that there are better services for the target group. The target group for the clinical study research is the people who are affected by cancer of the ovary while the social sciences research involves the students especially the freshmen who are addicted to taking ice cream. Both of this projects are practically there to make sure that the participants help identify the measures, strategies or the standards to be applied to the target group to get proper help. The ovarian study is a rather urgent kind of research since in most cases the affected people are in pain and others do not even realize the existence of the tumor. Accordingly, each patient must be done some level of checkups to ensure determine the best possible approach for the treatments (Rowbotham et al., 2013). Cancer is a disease that affects many people and currently, with the kind of living people are thriving, there are high possibilities of more people being diagnosed with the disease. Therefore the major needs to have the consent on cancer patient treatment are more valid. Considering the consent to identify the rate of freshmen taking ice cream, this is also an important study since it will give a clear understanding of how many people are likely to be affected by the rate of consumption.
