Document Summary
Instructor doesn"t need ethical approval if they are attempting to boost their own instruction. Run by ethics board but don"t exactly need approval. Need to look at good monetary incentive that isn"t too attractive but that doesn"t downplay the study. Clear power differences b/w individuals --> ppl feel like they have to be involved or else they wont get social status/raise/promotion if they don"t participate. Student in study w/ teacher --> not of age majority might not have ability to give consent (free and informed) Free + informed consent may be compromised because participant may not be able to evaluate the pros/cons (normally w/ children or w/ senior citizens or developmental delays) Need for parent/guardian consent when working w/ children. Deception or minimal consent may be desired to maintain study + data integrity. Example: milgram study (info not fully disclosed that cries of pain were previously recorded) Blinding (do it so participant doesn"t know what treatment group.
