Charles W. Lidz, Ph.D., is Research Professor of Psychiatry at the University of
Massachusetts Medical School. He has a long history of empirical research on bioethical
issues. This began with the first NIH funded study on informed consent in the 1980s.
Shortly thereafter, in collaboration with his colleagues, he published the initial paper
on therapeutic misconception. In the 90s, with funding from the MacArthur Foundation, he
published a series of studies on coercion in treatment decision-making that established
the MacArthur Perceived Coercion Scale as the major method of studying coercion in
research and treatment decisions. Thereafter, with funding from NIH, he undertook the
first effort to systematically study the frequency of therapeutic misconception in
clinical research consents. A subsequent study of therapeutic misconception among
clinical researchers and its consequences for research integrity was recently published.
His current research concerns decision-making in institutional review boards (IRBs) and
their role in regulating research. He is also working on his NIH Challenge grant to study
the blurring of the boundaries between research and clinical care in clinical trials.
