But they still had displayed the child's photo, and had freely distributed details of the experiment. If confidentially was not broken, then the experiment would not have been appreciated to the extent which it is appreciated to this day.
I think that is confidentiality, I forgot most of my Psych stuff from last year.
This is correct. Releasing photographs and videos of any individual (without their consent) who participated in your psychology research breaches confidentiality. Contemporary society/psychology would consider this unethical and breaching confidentiality. (Excuse poor wording.)
Although this is a rather simplistic example, as the "Little Albert" case was fairly complex: Just say you participated in a psychology study, and later down the track, you stumbled across clear pictures and videos of yourself on a website or in a psychology journal during the research, with your results included, but your name omitted. You (and your parents) did not give them any permission to release your photographs. I'm sure you'd feel as if your privacy and trust had been violated, and that confidentiality had been breached. You can obviously be easily identified with a photo.
Type in "Little Albert" into google, and you will find various videos of him whilst being conditioned. His photos are still readily available.
OMG jess, just read the first few pages and these are awesome. Can i ask where you got these from? or did you make them yourself? do you have these for aos 1 and 3 as well?

Those notes I did not write myself, I received them from my teacher, however I edited them slightly. I'm glad they are helping!
I do have similar notes for the other areas of study.
