Psychological research should be carried out under clear ethical guidelines – participants should be informed of their right to withdraw from the research at any time, irrespective of whether or not payment has been offered.

Depends what you are asked to do. You have free will to make the choice whether or not to become involved so they are not wrong. I think they do prey on student's financial problems though.
If the experiments you're talking about are for a scientific research study, I think the supervising lecturer, or the regulatory body, would have to discuss the morality of any proposals.
There would have to be a valid reason for conducting any experiment involving animals or people. The law is quite clear on this following the horrendous experiments done in the past, both here and in other countries.
I was once the victim of a psych experiment which still occurs occasionally. This experiment violates the first principle of the "hypocritical" oath, which is to do no harm to the patient.
I was hospitalized for alcoholism and depression. One day, I was asked if I would be willing to be interviewed by a psychiatrist in front of a group of students. I agreed. This turned out to be no more than a head game for the benefit of the students and also to make the @$$hole psychiatrist feel better about himself. Rather than interview me, the psychiatrist insulted me for about half an hour. The whole idea was to show the students that severely depressed people rarely get angry. I was never told that the "interview" was just a game. This experience totally destroyed me, for years, until I found out what the game was. This happened in Dutcher Hall at the state hospital in Middletown, Connecticut, sometime around 1971-1974.
Could someone please forward this to the hospital administration at Middletown? This is medical malpractice at its worst. I hate to hear about other people who have been victimized in this way.
No.I believe that if someone does something wrong,their head should be cracked open and we should all have a good look inside.
