Assignment:
Review the following cases; then consider the following:
1) What are the ethical considerations for each?
2) Indicate which ethical codes (if any) that the studies violate.
3) How could things have been done differently to remedy any ethical violations?
Make sure to refer to the appropriate APA Ethics code (or those for the ethics code for your discipline). Make sure to specify to which code you're referring and begin your paper by stating your discipline.
Case
A student proposed to study the effects of alcohol on social behavior. She intends to have consenting adults drink a specified amount of alcohol (not above the legal limit) and then observe willingness to participate in a karaoke bar. She will record things such as how many times they perform, how loudly they sing, what kinds of songs they sing, and so on.
There may be no problems here, but we assume that the researcher thinks that people will be less inhibited in this situation and, as such, is perhaps encouraging such behavior.
