Typically, when the discussion about research ethics in experiment design is started, the common examples given are where individuals are put in physically hazardous situations such as being given dangerous drugs, exposed to bodily harm, and so on. This may not always be the case for psychologists.What are some examples of unethical research design more representative of general psychological research that we should be wary of?What are some ways to design/modify these types of experiments in such a way that they are ethical?Finally, what is an ethical problem in psychological research that you think is important? This does not have to be related to experimental design and can be related to any aspect of the research process.As a side note, just about all research universities have some form of Institutional Review Board (IRB) which specifically assess research projects that will be conducted by members of this university. The main goal of this board is to ensure that experimental methods are ethical and safe for all stakeholders involved. GMU is no different and the IRB here provides a wonderful resource for planning and executing research projects of all kinds.
