Research ethics and respect for participants' privacy are core values of our work. Consequently, a portion of the investigations conducted have not been published because the subjects did not grant explicit consent to disclose their personal goals or challenges. For the cases presented here, a strict anonymization protocol has been followed. This allows for the study of statistical data and methodological mechanisms while fully protecting the identity of the individuals involved.
The cases presented in this archive constitute a selected sample of investigations, for which the explicit consent of the participants has been secured. We made the selection with a view to ensuring anonymity and protecting privacy, without altering the scientific value and statistical accuracy of the results.
During the years 1993 - 1997, we applied pentactins to solve problems or achieve goals in 675 cases. Of those interested, 263 did not consent to the recording of the results and their publication for statistical analysis. To be fair, they made the correct decision, as it would not make sense to publish applications without mentioning the problem or goal. So, there is a chance that someone might suspect who the interested party is, and we won't risk it.
