My Professor Won't OK My Experiement

I am a psych major and I want to take a little baby and put a rat by him. This baby loves rats. My idea is that every time the rat is near I will make a loud noise and startle the baby.

The experiment will show that babies can be conditioned like Pavlov dog.

But the idiot professor says it's unethical.

What do you think?

If you don't know, you'd never understand if we told you.

Trust your prof. It’s unethical. Jesus, just what the world needs. A sociopathic psychologist.

The ESTs are getting really stupid of late.

I think somebody put a brainless rat by you, OP.

These ESTers are getting dumber all the time.

Where exactly does one go to rent a baby for experiments?

I assume you're renting and not buying, OP.

I’m worried about you, OP, please change majors.

Apart from the ethical issues why does the OP think he's going to show anything new in an undergrad experiment? you don't start doing original research until postgrad, and then you are generally pushing forward other people's work in increments. I don't think OP knows how academia works.

Harvard?

You're not only unethical but stupid. This experiment in various forms has already been done. Do a bit of research. Stop thinking you're special.

Dear OP, you're a fucking retard. Please die. TIA.

I think you missed your calling as a SS concentration camp guard.

by Anonymousreply 22September 20, 2019 6:58 AM

I think OP saw ‘The Mind, Explained’ on Netflix, which mentioned the Little Albert experiment. So unoriginal, OP.

Yet everyone but three people fell for it. And this was shown in Psych 101 classes since the 50s. (and probably before).
