This episode examines why ethics are essential in psychology and how past controversial studies shaped today’s strict standards. It reflects on historical cases like Milgram’s obedience experiment and Zimbardo’s Stanford Prison Experiment, where participants experienced significant emotional distress. These studies revealed important human behaviors, but also exposed ethical failures—leading to questions about the limits of scientific exploration.
