Manage episode 421049241 series 3481674

Psych PhD Chris Cole and cohost Joseph Tajaran discuss Harry Harlow’s early life, the multiple versions of the pit of despair he created, and we learn about the reactions to the study. This study has become one of the most infamously unethical psychology studies to date.
