Question

the study in alabama from the 1930s to 1970s that is described in the concept article violated ethical rules in science. what is one of the rules that it violated?
a researchers must try to avoid errors in their data.
b researchers must fully inform human subjects about their role in the research.
c animals must be treated humanely in scientific research.
d none of the above

Explanation:

The study in question is likely the Tuskegee Syphilis Study, where participants (human subjects) were not fully informed about the nature of the research (they were not told they had syphilis and were not given proper treatment even when effective treatment became available). Option a is about data errors, not an ethical violation related to human subjects' informed consent. Option c is about animal research, while this study involved humans. So the violated rule is that researchers must fully inform human subjects about their role in the research.

Answer:

b. Researchers must fully inform human subjects about their role in the research.
