There are a number of ethical implications in research. One of them is informed consent. This requires the researcher to inform the participants all the information pertaining the research that will affect them. For example, purpose, time, their rights and lastly the procedures involved in the research. Secondly, confidentiality of the participants is vital. Researchers should seek permission before sharing the data collected. Lastly, debriefing the participants by conveying information and clarifying all their questions and issues. I believe the study was not ethical as much as it was a school environment. Therefore I will not assume that the administration granted them with permission According to (Wilson n.d.) there was no evidence of the psychologists seeking permission from the participants to carry out the research. Neither did they debrief the participants.
