Answer to Question 1

Dehoaxing involves telling participants how they were deceived and why it was necessary; further, they learn the purpose of the study. Desensitization pertains to eliminating any possible negative feelings by the participants so they leave in a positive state of mind.

Answer to Question 2

a. deception is immoral
b. when participants are deceived, they do not know the nature of the study, so they cannot give truly informed consent
c. people will become suspicious or develop negative attitudes toward psychology
