Research Ethics

The following quote is from Polly Wiessner, "Experimental Games and Games of Life among the Ju/'hoan Bushmen", in Current Anthropology, Vol. 50, No. 1, February 2009, pp. 133-138.

To answer these questions, I asked Ju/'hoansi of Nyae Nyae to play two experimental games, the dictator game and the ultimatum game, at a time when they were very hungry and the money mattered.

Say what? I have some experiments I would like to perform with anthropologists.
