3 Key Ethical Pillars in Psychological Investigations

  1. Voluntary Involvement:
  • Researchers must secure informed agreement from all study participants.
  • Participants should feel no pressure, coercion, or intimidation to join in.
  • This holds particular importance when interacting with students or inmates who might be reluctant to decline participation.
  1. Informed Agreement:
  • Researchers must communicate true and thorough details regarding the study's motive, methods, prospective risks, and rewards to prospective participants.
  • Agreement should be granted unrestrainedly, in writing, and recorded.
  • In circumstances where concealment proves necessary due to the study's design, researchers must fully explain the study's purpose to participants afterward.
  1. Participant Confidentiality:
  • Confidentiality is the cornerstone of ethical psychological research.
  • Researchers must assure participants that their identities, specific responses, and identifying information will be kept secret and will not be shared with any third party outside the research team.
  • Sensitive data should be securely stored and anonymized where feasible.
