In this week's discussion board, we will explore the role of
ethics in research. To prepare for this discussion, review the following resources:
Rooney, B. & Evans,

external site.). In Methods in psychological
research (pp. 57-84). SAGE

Suggestions for
minimizing the risk of participation in psychology research: Putting Ethics Into Practice (Links to an external site.)
You will also want to

Psychologists and Code of Conduct (Links to an external site.).
Watch the video describing the Zimbardo Prison Study
In your initial discussion board post, due Wednesdays by 11:59pm EST, discuss one ethical piece to this study, including the
following information:
- a description of the ethical concern
- the connection of this ethical concern to the APA Code of Ethics
(which ethical principles is this concern connected to)
- how might this research study (as it was originally designed)
trigger trauma in participants (you only need to identify one element)
In your reply post to peers, due Sunday by 11:59pm EST, propose a
modern update for this study that addresses the ethical concern your peer
identified. How could this study be done that addresses this ethical
concern? Based on this alteration, how might the research design change or
impact the data collected or the conclusions from this study? In other words,
how might the results change once that ethical concern is addressed?
Please refer to the Discussion Board rubric for grading criteria.
