Some research investigating the effects of alcohol has
actually had research subjects drink to the point of intoxication. If you were
a student member of your university’s Institutional Review Board, would you
vote to approve a study such as this? Why or why not? Would you ban an
experiment that involves alcohol altogether, or would you set certain criteria
for the experimental conditions? What would such criteria be? What about for
female students who may be pregnant? Can you think of any circumstances in
which you would allow an experiment involving the administration of illegal
drugs?
