Topic 1.2
What is the most ethical approach when a psychological study puts participants at risk of emotional distress?
Emotional distress is an inevitable part of every study and shouldn't be considered.
Participants should be forced to continue regardless of their emotional state.
Researchers can ignore the risks because the end justifies the means.
Researchers should minimize potential risks and provide full disclosure about possible discomforts.
