Good point. I was thinking more of population-based studies. In fact, I wonder if researchers should recuse themselves from participating because they over think the whole process of being a study participant! I know I am always looking for wording issues, etc. on the questionnaires. :P Thanks for the comment, Jere! Good point. I was thinking more of population-based studies.

Regarding: "Researchers are rarely study participants." - I'm not so sure; the history of medical research, after all, would be dramatically different without a long tradition of autoexperimentation. See: Altman LK. Who goes first? The story of self-experimentation in medicine. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1998. Good post!
