Discussion 2 - Three Identical Strangers / DUE BY JAN 26
"Three Identical Strangers" is a documentary available on Hulu and for rent on various
platforms. I strongly encourage you to watch the documentary. It's very good. But if it is
not an option, then there is a ton of information out there on these boys/men and their
journey. I have added some links for you below, including the film trailer. But you will need
to research some more to get information not just on the boys/men but on the study itself
to participate in the discussion. That is why watching the documentary is best. For the
discussion, answer and discuss the following.
Question for Discussion: How do you feel about the study? What are some of the
biggest concerns you have with regard to the four participant rights identified by the
APA, as outlined in your text. Explain.
Each post should be 10 thoughtful sentences. Posts with fewer than 5 sentences will not
receive credit.
