The Tuskegee Syphilis Study violated all three) The Milgram Studies: the study was extremely stressful to the participants debriefing: in an interview after the study, participants were carefully informed about the study?s true nature, details and hypotheses and introduced to the unharmed learner but participants may still suffer post-study stress A fundamental conundrum in deciding whether the research is ethical; try to balance the potential risks to participants against the value of the knowledge we can gain.
