Скачать или смотреть The Monster Study: A Haunting Tale of Unethical Science and Lasting Impact

Unveiling a dark chapter in the history of science, the Monster Study of 1939 reveals the profound impact of unethical experimentation. Conducted by Dr. Wendell Johnson at the University of Iowa, this controversial research sought to explore speech disorders by manipulating feedback given to twenty-two orphaned children. Divided into two groups, the children received either positive or negative remarks about their speech. Those criticized for their speech developed stutters and lasting emotional scars, altering the course of their lives. While the study contributed to our understanding of speech therapy, it serves as a stark reminder of the ethical boundaries that must govern scientific inquiry, echoing a cautionary tale of the potential harm that can arise from such endeavors.
