• Lacks Ethics - Milgram

  P: Milgram has been criticised for his lack of consideration of ethics.

  E: Baumrind (1964) criticised Milgram's deceptions - deceived ppt about the fact they were not actually delivering harmful electric shocks and that roles were randomly assigned (they actually fixed). This impacted informed consent (i.e they couldn't give).

  E: He didn't protect his ppt from psychological harm as they experienced trauma in delivering the shocks & humiliation upon finding out the extent of the deceit.

  L: This is not acceptable and such research would never be approved today.
