The ethical principles developed by the American Psychological Association, the Canadian Psychological Association, and the British Psychological Society mandate investigators to protect research participants from harm and significant discomfort. This is a crucial aspect of conducting ethical research and should always be adhered to. The use of deception should only be used if it is absolutely necessary and should be weighed against the potential risks to the participants. However, it should never be used if it would affect the participants' willingness to participate in the study. Additionally, while it is important to fully explain the nature of the experiment and the results obtained, this should not be done if the feedback is distressing to the participants. Appropriate steps should be taken to minimize any potential harm or discomfort to the participants.
