Abstract
Ethicists agree that the informed consent given by subjects must be free and uncoerced. The first paragraph in section I of The Nuremberg Code says specifically that
the person involved should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, overreaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion.
