(people say yes to every item instead of thinking carefully about each question) Which principle of the Belmont Report requires that individuals be capable of making deliberate decisions about whether to participate in research?The Belmont Report 's principle of respect for persons or autonomy states that participants are treated as autonomous; they are capable of making deliberate decisions about whether to participate in research.
