Answer preview

IRB today would not approve the research as it goes against human rights and the well-being of the participants. It is also unethical and does not meet the standards of IRB. Using participants without their consent and minors for research and experiments is unethical and goes against the well-being of the individuals ( Morrow and Alderson, 2020). The research was tolerated during that time as individuals from marginalized groups were considered less than other people in society. In addition, there were no ethical values, standards, and regulations during this period that regulated what was wrong and what was right.
