Reference no: EM13503173

You have enrolled in an undergraduate psychology course. In reading the syllabus you notice one of the course requirements is to participate in a research study being conducted by the Psychology Department. Do you think this is ethical? Why or why not? What are the potential ethical concerns in this scenario? What would happen if you decided to end your participation in the study early because it made you feel uncomfortable? Would you still receive credit? If you were the instructor, how would you debrief a subject who ended his or her participation early? What if you have a few students who are under 18 years old in the class? Are there any special concerns for these students? What role does the Institutional Research Review Board play in institutions of higher education?
