Answer to Question 1

D
Students should avoid experiments that involve electric shocks. Participants should be told every feature of a study that might affect their willingness to participate. The debriefing must be conducted with sensitivity to the feelings of the participants. IRB approval must be obtained before the research begins.

Answer to Question 2

B
Friends might be good to test because they will tell you what they really think. The target population would be good to test because they are more similar to the real participants.
