Stanley Milgram convinced participants that they were actually delivering shocks to another person in order to test how willing people are to obey authority figures. Based on ethical guidelines set out by IRBs, what concerns might you have if someone wanted to do the same study today?
Your Answer:
If someone wanted to conduct a study similar to Stanley Milgram’s obedience experiment today, ethical concerns would include obtaining informed consent, minimizing psychological harm, addressing deception and debriefing, ensuring confidentiality and privacy and justifying the study's necessity and replicability. Ethical guidelines prioritize protecting participants' welfare and rights in research involving human subjects. Lack of informed consent due to deception.
