Ethical conformity experiments

I’m doing my National 5 psychology assignment, and quoted from the SQA website :

The study is unethical, as it involves participants hearing the estimates of others on the ages of celebrities after they have made their first estimate. This may impact on the self-esteem of participants, should their estimates vary from those of ‘others’.
0/4
So this basically rules out a lot of experiments eg Jenness right?

Does anyone have any ideas on ethical conformity experiments that don’t require psychological stress/embarrassment?
