00:01 Guys today we're looking at the question one of the principal differences between ethical guidelines for human and animal research is so basically that's asking us is human the animal ethics great so our first one is a where it says human subjects can be deceived for experimental purposes and animals cannot so humans can be deceived not a because deception is actually a violation of ethical rules of studies in psychology.

00:45 Humans cannot be deceived in any situation.

00:47 So right away, we know it's not, we know it's not a.

00:51 Then we have b.

00:54 Animal subjects can be placed in much greater risk than human subjects can.

01:02 Oops, sorry about that.

01:04 Animals placed in greater risk.

01:17 Sorry, that's a, i think.

01:18 Supposed to be an increased arrow like an up arrow.

01:23 It could be b because unfortunately i don't know if this is updated to modern standards but animals at one point they were allowed we were allowed to put them at greater physical risk in the psychological studies with putting while putting humans at no physical risk so it could be b but let's move on to the other ones we have c human subjects must be chosen much more carefully so humans okay humans why is it doing this okay humans i'll just leave it as chosen because for some reason my pen is not cooperating okay so humans must be chosen much more carefully that is not necessarily true both animals and humans i guess should be chosen using similar similar guidelines you know use random assignment and random selection for them and try to avoid bias sampling like i would say if you're looking at humans maybe don't get them from one age group or one region if you're looking at animals let's say you're looking at a monkey sample don't get one monkey native only to one area maybe get monkeys native to looking at monkeys native to like an asian region or an african region you know you want to get multiple regions there to avoid that so they're not, you know, there's not a huge difference in the choosing process for them.

03:14 So it's not c.

03:15 There's not a big difference there.

03:16 We look at d then, where d says that if humans might physically suffer because of the study, the suffering must be minimal in contrast to animal studies where any amount of suffering is ethical if it helps to further scientific purpose.

03:32 I'm just going to, that's a lot to write.

03:34 I'm just going to leave that one blank...
