It was agreed that parents would be informed their data would be held confidentiality, however they should be aware that if a potential risk was identified to the child, then the researcher would be obliged to take action to protect that child, preferably with parents consent and participation. Additionally it was agreed that should any significant problems be identified in the child that were not previously known to the parents, this would be discussed with the parents and assistance with seeking help given if appropriate. This was necessary for three children in the OCD group who displayed previously unacknowledged clinical level symptoms and one child in the control group. One father in the OCD group did not consent to his child being given questionnaires as he had been hiding his OCD from them and did not wish them to know about it. This was respected and data was not collected.
