Monkey Drug Trial

1969

It might be hard to watch...

But pay attention to how unethical this is

Results

1. The monkeys had no say in taking the drugs which are harmful physically, emotionally, and mentally.

2. The reason of simply "just watching the effects of drugs" is not a good enough reason to put monkeys through torture and in harms way.

3. The results of the study all had to have ended with death, because one can not help a "recovering addict monkey". They cannot take AA or therapy.

4. Lastly, knowing they all must have died means they were only alive for one reason, the experiment, which is completely unethical. They are living beings

What were the results of the experiment?

The results were negative because the subjects suffered pain, withdrawal symptoms and in some cases died from an overdose.

The Following Prezi will discuss...

CPA

Respect for the Dignity of Persons

- No respect for the monkeys dignity because it was just viewed upon as an animal

- Did not obtain informed consent to practice on monkeys

- Monkeys were put under excruciating pain

-Could have tested on humans that were drug addicts instead of helpless monkeys

Responsible Caring

- No further knowledge of the community, culture, and interests was researched before starting any major work

Integrity of Relationships

Responsibility to Society

- N/A

Implications

  • These experiments had affected

the monkey's that were tested in

an enormous way.

  • They were not

only physically harmed, but also

mentally harmed.

  • However, since then we have been able to understand that animals deserve to be treated like that of a human being.
  • Animals are much more valued, and are given the rights they deserve.
  • Background information
  • Results
  • Implications

In our Society Today

  • This experiment can relate to how people in our society act towards one another while pursing personal endeavors
  • It is a clear representation of how peoples disregard for moral norms while trying to achieve a goal
  • Much like the scientist in these experiments, there are many in our world today who will indefinetly go against what is right in order to satiate there own lust for knowledge.
