Experimental Ethics

Approving an Experiment Ethical guidelines established by the APA (American Psychology Association) Before any experiment is conducted, it must be reviewed by an ethics board

Basic Ethical Principles 1. Must not harm participants Nazis tried to change eye color by injecting dye directly into the eyeball Many went blind as a result

Basic Ethical Principles 2. Must not break any laws Hard to do research on the effects of illegal drugs because it would break the law

Basic Ethical Principles 3. Must obtain informed consent before and debrief after

Basic Ethical Principles 4. Deception is OK as long as participants are informed of the deception after the experiment is concluded

Basic Ethical Principles 5. Must keep individual results confidential Exception is when a participant reveals plans to hurt self or someone else

6. Harm to animals is permissible if it is for the greater human good, there is no alternative, and the benefits outweigh the harm Why use animals instead of humans? The processes that underlie behavior in animals and humans are often similar. Animals are worthy of study for their own sake. Animal behavior is generally simpler to understand.
