Research on Violence: The Ethical Equation
Abstract
This symposium is generally concerned with the relationships between brain electrical activity and behavior observed in the laboratory. New and exciting methods for eliciting, storing, interpreting, and communicating information have been described. The application of these observations, methods, and models to the understanding of behaviors occurring outside the laboratory is inevitable. Yet, when we leave the animal model, and then we subsequently leave the laboratory, and finally when we leave the hospital to consider behavior as it occurs in other institutions and in the community, streets, and homes, we evoke a new set of methodological, procedural, and ethical considerations.
