5. As part of their class requirements, the students in Dr. Taylor's Research Design and Analysis class are sent over to Trumbull Mall to observe interactions between mothers and their toddler-aged children. They are told not to interact with the moms at all, but just record certain behaviors, like the number of times they speak harshly to their child and the number of times the child whines or cries. One of the mothers notices that the students are watching people and she complains to mall security. The manager of the mall asks the students where they are from, then writes a letter of complaint to Dr. Taylor. Here is an excerpt: "I am requesting that you do not engage in any more observational research at Trumbull Mall. I don't think it is right to allow students to observe people's behavior without getting their permission first. It is a violation of privacy and it's wrong even if they don't realize they are being watched. People come to the mall to shop, not to be watched." Reflection Questions: d. What are some good reasons for the manager's concerns? Explain. Participants did not give informed consent. e. What are some good reasons why the students should be able to do this type of research? Explain. Participants were in public; participants’ routine was not altered by the students; there were no risks. f. If you were in Dr. Taylor's position, how would you handle the situation? Researchers should seek permission from an owner/manager when they wish to collect data in public.
