What does deception imply in terms of ethics when conducting psychology experiments on encoding?
Deception implies researchers can lie about what will happen in an experiment as long as it doesn't hurt anyone physically.
Deception must be justified by significant scientific or educational value and not cause physical pain or emotional distress.
Deception is always ethically unacceptable in psychological studies regardless of the context or intention behind its use.
Deception suggests that if a psychologist obtains informed consent, they have full autonomy to deceive participants as much as they please during a study.
