RE: The most disturbing human experiments that could never happen today

in #psychology7 years ago

For me, little Albert have been and will always be the most cruel experiment ever done. That kid was an orphan and there was nobody to protect him, and he had serious consequences after that in his adult life also, that could never be compensated.

And as a psychologist myself, I think that ethics and spreading the positivity and humanity are way much more important than any data you can get. Let's make better world by showing a good example of how to make peace inside and around yourself, instead of doing experiments when we have no right and ethical conditions for them. :)

Sort:  

Some theories suggest that Little Albert died at the age of six. Whether this is true or false, he has undoubtedly suffered serious consequences for the rest of his life due to Watson's unethical experiment.

Thank you for sharing positivity, @katarinamiliv! I'm much more interested in positive psychology than other fields. Cheers! : )

also I d recommend you the movie Das Experiment :)

I think we've watched that movie together, actually. :D

oh, I forgot :)
