1Research ethics are [blank_start]issues[blank_end] that arise when research involves [blank_start]human[blank_end] or [blank_start]animal[blank_end] subjects.
They also involve the [blank_start]importance[blank_end] of [blank_start]publishing[blank_end] findings in a [blank_start]transparent[blank_end] way, and not plagiarising/[blank_start]falsifying[blank_end] work.
WHY ARE RESEARCH ETHICS [blank_start]IMPORTANT[blank_end]?
They promote the [blank_start]aims[blank_end] of research, such as [blank_start]expanding[blank_end] [blank_start]knowledge[blank_end].
They support [blank_start]social[blank_end] and moral [blank_start]values[blank_end], such as not [blank_start]harming[blank_end] others.
They ensure the [blank_start]public[blank_end] can [blank_start]trust[blank_end] research and will continue to [blank_start]fund[blank_end] it.
They hold researchers [blank_start]accountable[blank_end] for their [blank_start]actions[blank_end].
They support the [blank_start]values[blank_end] required for [blank_start]collaborative[blank_end] work: such as fairness and [blank_start]mutual[blank_end] [blank_start]respect[blank_end].- Aissues

2WHAT ARE ETHICAL ISSUES?
An ethical [blank_start]issue[blank_end] is a [blank_start]conflict[blank_end] between the [blank_start]rights[blank_end] of the [blank_start]participants[blank_end] and the [blank_start]aims[blank_end] of the [blank_start]researcher[blank_end].- Aissue

3INFORMED CONSENT
[blank_start]Informed[blank_end] consent is where participants should be given [blank_start]detailed[blank_end] [blank_start]information[blank_end] about the [blank_start]nature[blank_end] and purpose of the study so they can [blank_start]decide[blank_end] whether to take [blank_start]part[blank_end].
The [blank_start]issue[blank_end] is that if participants are given too much [blank_start]information[blank_end] they could [blank_start]guess[blank_end] the [blank_start]aim[blank_end] which would [blank_start]invalidate[blank_end] the [blank_start]purpose[blank_end] of the study.
They could also [blank_start]change[blank_end] their [blank_start]behaviour[blank_end] on purpose, which would also [blank_start]invalidate[blank_end] the [blank_start]findings[blank_end].
Another issue is that [blank_start]participants[blank_end] might [blank_start]agree[blank_end] but still not fully [blank_start]understand[blank_end], e.g [blank_start]Epstein[blank_end] + [blank_start]Lasagna[blank_end] [blank_start]1969[blank_end] found that only [blank_start]1/3[blank_end] of participants [blank_start]volunteering[blank_end] for an experiment really [blank_start]understood[blank_end] what they were [blank_start]agreeing[blank_end] to take part in.
To deal with [blank_start]informed[blank_end] consent, participants are asked to [blank_start]formally[blank_end] [blank_start]indicate[blank_end] their agreement by signing a [blank_start]consent[blank_end] [blank_start]form[blank_end] that contains [blank_start]information[blank_end] about what their [blank_start]role[blank_end] in the study will be.
Another option is to gain [blank_start]presumptive[blank_end] [blank_start]consent[blank_end], which involves asking a [blank_start]group[blank_end] of people who are [blank_start]similar[blank_end] to the [blank_start]participants[blank_end] to [blank_start]agree[blank_end] to take part in a study. If they do, it’s [blank_start]presumed[blank_end] that the [blank_start]real[blank_end] participants would too. The [blank_start]problem[blank_end] with this is that what people [blank_start]expect[blank_end] they’d be [blank_start]okay[blank_end] with can be [blank_start]different[blank_end] from actually [blank_start]experiencing[blank_end] it.- AInformed

42. DECEPTION
[blank_start]Deception[blank_end] is where the participant isn’t told the [blank_start]true[blank_end] [blank_start]aim[blank_end] of the [blank_start]study[blank_end], and thus can’t give [blank_start]informed[blank_end] [blank_start]consent[blank_end].
It can be [blank_start]necessary[blank_end] because otherwise participants might [blank_start]alter[blank_end] their [blank_start]behaviour[blank_end] to fit in with the [blank_start]expectations[blank_end] of the [blank_start]researcher[blank_end].
However, there is a [blank_start]difference[blank_end] between [blank_start]withholding[blank_end] some details of the research, and providing [blank_start]false[blank_end] [blank_start]information[blank_end] on purpose.
Deception can lead people to see [blank_start]researchers[blank_end] as [blank_start]untrustworthy[blank_end] which could stop them [blank_start]taking[blank_end] part in the [blank_start]future[blank_end].
The [blank_start]need[blank_end] for deception should be [blank_start]approved[blank_end] by an ethics [blank_start]committee[blank_end] - a [blank_start]group[blank_end] of people within a [blank_start]research[blank_end] [blank_start]institution[blank_end] that must [blank_start]approve[blank_end] a study before it begins - who [blank_start]weigh[blank_end] up the [blank_start]benefits[blank_end] of the study against the [blank_start]cost[blank_end] to [blank_start]participants[blank_end].
If participants are [blank_start]deceived[blank_end], they should be [blank_start]debriefed[blank_end] after the study. The [blank_start]aim[blank_end] of debriefing is to [blank_start]inform[blank_end] [blank_start]participants[blank_end] about the [blank_start]true[blank_end] [blank_start]nature[blank_end] of the study and give them chance to ask [blank_start]questions[blank_end] and give [blank_start]feedback[blank_end].
Participants must also be given the [blank_start]opportunity[blank_end] to [blank_start]withdraw[blank_end] their data from the study and be offered [blank_start]counselling[blank_end] if needed.
The problem with the [blank_start]cost-benefit[blank_end] analysis is that it involves [blank_start]subjective[blank_end] [blank_start]judgement[blank_end], and the costs/benefits [blank_start]aren’t[blank_end] always [blank_start]obvious[blank_end] until the study has been [blank_start]done[blank_end].
The issue with [blank_start]debriefing[blank_end] is that it can’t turn back [blank_start]time[blank_end]: participants might feel [blank_start]deceived[blank_end] and embarrassed about their [blank_start]behaviour[blank_end]. Debriefing is only a [blank_start]partial[blank_end] [blank_start]solution[blank_end] to deception.- ADeception

53. PRIVACY
[blank_start]Privacy[blank_end] is a person’s right to [blank_start]control[blank_end] the flow of [blank_start]information[blank_end] about [blank_start]themselves[blank_end].
It can be an [blank_start]issue[blank_end], especiallly in [blank_start]observations[blank_end] as there is no [blank_start]universal[blank_end] [blank_start]agreement[blank_end] as to what constitutes ‘[blank_start]public[blank_end]’.
It’s also difficult to [blank_start]avoid[blank_end] [blank_start]invading[blank_end] privacy when studying [blank_start]participants[blank_end] without their [blank_start]knowledge[blank_end], such as in a [blank_start]covert[blank_end] [blank_start]field[blank_end] experiment.
Researchers [blank_start]shouldn’t[blank_end] observe anyone [blank_start]without[blank_end] their consent in a [blank_start]private[blank_end] place. They should gain [blank_start]prior[blank_end] [blank_start]consent[blank_end] where [blank_start]appropriate[blank_end] and [blank_start]retrospective[blank_end] consent when in [blank_start]public[blank_end] places.
Researchers should not ask for [blank_start]sensitive[blank_end] [blank_start]information[blank_end].- APrivacy

64. CONFIDENTIALITY
[blank_start]Confidentiality[blank_end] means that participants have the [blank_start]right[blank_end] to have their [blank_start]personal[blank_end] [blank_start]information[blank_end] protected.
The [blank_start]Data[blank_end] [blank_start]Protection[blank_end] [blank_start]Act[blank_end] makes confidentiality a [blank_start]legal[blank_end] right, and it’s only [blank_start]acceptable[blank_end] for data to be [blank_start]recorded[blank_end] in a [blank_start]form[blank_end] that doesn’t [blank_start]identify[blank_end] participants.
It can be [blank_start]difficult[blank_end] to [blank_start]protect[blank_end] because researchers want to [blank_start]publish[blank_end] their [blank_start]findings[blank_end].
They ma use [blank_start]false[blank_end] [blank_start]names[blank_end] or numbers, but it could still be [blank_start]possible[blank_end] to identify participants through [blank_start]location[blank_end] or ages: [blank_start]confidentiality[blank_end] may not [blank_start]always[blank_end] be possible.
The [blank_start]difference[blank_end] between confidentiality and [blank_start]privacy[blank_end] is that [blank_start]confidentiality[blank_end] refers to the [blank_start]protection[blank_end] of [blank_start]information[blank_end] being communicated from one person to [blank_start]another[blank_end], whereas [blank_start]privacy[blank_end] refers to a [blank_start]zone[blank_end] of [blank_start]inaccessability[blank_end] of mind/body, and the [blank_start]trust[blank_end] that this won’t be [blank_start]invaded[blank_end].- AConfidentiality

75. PROTECTION FROM HARM
[blank_start]Protection[blank_end] from [blank_start]harm[blank_end] means that participants shouldn’t [blank_start]experience[blank_end] any [blank_start]negative[blank_end] [blank_start]physical[blank_end] or [blank_start]psychological[blank_end] effects from the [blank_start]study[blank_end] beyond what would be [blank_start]normal[blank_end] for them to [blank_start]experience[blank_end].
It is considered [blank_start]acceptable[blank_end] if the [blank_start]risk[blank_end] of harm is no [blank_start]greater[blank_end] than [blank_start]everyday[blank_end] life, and if participants are in the [blank_start]same[blank_end] [blank_start]state[blank_end] after the study as they were [blank_start]before[blank_end] [unless they have [blank_start]consented[blank_end] [blank_start]otherwise[blank_end]].
It’s [blank_start]difficult[blank_end] to [blank_start]guarantee[blank_end] protection from harm because it can be [blank_start]impossible[blank_end] to [blank_start]predict[blank_end] the [blank_start]outcomes[blank_end] of procedures.
Researchers should [blank_start]stop[blank_end] the study if [blank_start]harm[blank_end] is [blank_start]suspected[blank_end].- Aharm

86. RIGHT TO WITHDRAW
The [blank_start]right[blank_end] to [blank_start]withdraw[blank_end] means that participants should be given the [blank_start]opportunity[blank_end] to [blank_start]remove[blank_end] their [blank_start]data[blank_end] at any time, especially if they’ve been [blank_start]deceived[blank_end] about the [blank_start]nature[blank_end] of a study.
However, there can be [blank_start]problems[blank_end] as participants may [blank_start]feel[blank_end] they can’t [blank_start]withdraw[blank_end] because it will [blank_start]ruin[blank_end] a study, or because they are being [blank_start]rewarded[blank_end].
[blank_start]Remaining[blank_end] participants could be [blank_start]bias[blank_end] as they are [blank_start]likely[blank_end] to be more [blank_start]obedient[blank_end].
The only way to [blank_start]try[blank_end] and [blank_start]deal[blank_end] with the right to withdraw is to make it [blank_start]clear[blank_end] from the [blank_start]start[blank_end] of the study.- Aright
