play

In this episode, I introduce the topic of ethical considerations in psychological research and describe past research experiments that are now deemed as potentially harmful. I will be telling you about three famous studies that may make you question not only the impact that taking part in research has on participants, but also on the investigators and how the results are portrayed, with some now the focus of docudramas such as the 2018 movie, Three Identical Strangers.

In this episode, I invite you to take part in tasks to help illustrate the use of schemas, or packages of information, that help to guide our memory and how such energy saving ‘short-cuts’ by our brain can lead to distortions in recollection.

In the final part of the episode, I discuss the rise in interest in true crime and eyewitness testimony, how errors occur and why this is an area of controversy in the study of memory.
