risks include:

Deception: even necessary deception should not be too significant

Distress: including anxiety or humiliation or "more than minimal pain"; this includes repeated testing

Invasive interventions: drugs, medical procedures the participant wouldn't normally undergo, unusual levels of exercise, hypnosis

Labelling: by the researcher or the participant, leading to ideas like "I am stupid" or "I am not normal"

Vulnerable groups: children under-16 and people with disabilities

Sensitive topics: sexuality, crime, violence, ethnicity and gender
