Justify all data collection procedures by explaining how they align with the questions, methodology, and measures as previously described.
Ethical Considerations: 1 paragraph

Potential ethical issues may arise based on the decisions you have made so far regarding participants, measures, sampling, and data collection procedures.

Align ethical considerations with federal regulations, Capella University policies, and ethical research practices at Capella, along with any ethical codes or considerations specific to your field of study.
Describe each potential ethical issue, including the specific risks that may arise.
Explain how you will mitigate or prevent those risks from occurring.
If risk prevention or mitigation is not possible, justify why the project should occur and what can be done to resolve any problems that may arise.
