Terrific job on this week’s discussion! You described the role of the IRB very well and noted all the important things they do to make sure the research being done is ethical, safe, and accurate. Also, I feel if the IRB had been around for decades, then studies like Little Albert, Stanford Prison Experiment, etc. would have had chances to show more accurate information from their studies. How did you feel when you watched the Little Albert video? I agree that cases like the MMR vaccine and autism study create harmful real-world consequences because they create unwanted fear and damage the reputation of the scientific community.
