Choose one famous psychology study (e.g., Little Albert, Monster Study, Milgram Study, Stanford Prison Experiment), and re-design it so that it would be more ethical.
1) In one short paragraph (5 sentences), summarize what the study was about and how it was conducted.
2) In another short paragraph (5 sentences) articulate what was unethical about the study? Why?
3) If a study like this were to take place today, what would need to be changed to successfully get IRB (institutional research/review board) ethics approval? Explain (5 sentences).
Please cite/reference any source material (e.g. Where did you find information about the study? Did you use any other sources to help you with your assignment?
