Download or read book Ethical Choices in Research written by Harris M. Cooper and published by American Psychological Association (APA). This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books discuss the ethical treatment of human subjects in behavioral research, yet few talk about the equally important ethical issues that arise when the data are being analyzed and the study is being written up. All researchers need to be aware of their professional responsibilities and make sound choices after the subjects have left. This practical and easy-to-follow guide walks readers through often overlooked decision points in the research process. Drawing from his extensive experience as a teacher of research methods and a senior editorial advisor, and from well-established standards of practice -- including the APA Ethics Code -- Harris Cooper is the ideal mentor in this process. Readers of this book will learn how to: Collect and manage data in a way that does not compromise the confidentiality of subjects Avoid data fraud and misleading data analysis Assign research responsibilities and authorships to team members Avoid committing plagiarism and intellectual theft Navigate the journal submission and publication process Post-publication ethical considerations are also addressed, including researchers' obligations when communicating their findings to the media and the general public, and when engaging with the scientific community as a peer reviewer.

Download or read book Belmont Revisited written by James F. Childress and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on human subjects has always been a highly controversial topic in the field of bioethics. The book, featuring contributions from a Who's Who of biothics scholars, analyzes the seminal document on the topic in the United States: the 1979 Belmont Report, widely regarded as the single-most influential set of guidelines in the practice of bioethics.The Belmont Report is a 20-page statement that spells out the rationale for ethical research on humans, concluding that three primary principles are at play: respect for persons, beneficence, and justice. Since the publication of Belmont these three principles, spelled out further by philosopher Tom Beauchamp and ethicist James Childress and known as the "Georgetown mantra," have dominated all discussions of research on human subjects--though, as this book will show, not everyone agrees that this is the most helpful way to think about the matter. In fact, this book is both a broad overview of the evolution of the Belmont Report and, more important, 1) an assessment of its shortcomings and 2) a strong call to rethink how hospitals and pharmaceutical companies can conduct research more humanely and more ethically. So while the book looks back to the creation of Belmont, it also looks forward to the future of research. Contributors, in addition to the editors, include Alexander Capron, Ruth Faden, Eric Cassell, Karen Lebacqz, Larry Churchill, Robert Levine, Patricia King (Georgetown), Susan Sherwin, Ezekiel Emanuel, Robert Veach (Georgetown), Henry Richardson (Georgetown), John Evans.

This book was released on 1995-03-13 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breakthroughs in biomedicine often lead to new life-giving treatments but may also raise troubling, even life-and-death, quandaries. Society's Choices discusses ways for people to handle today's bioethics issues in the context of America's unique history and culture--and from the perspectives of various interest groups. The book explores how Americans have grappled with specific aspects of bioethics through commission deliberations, programs by organizations, and other mechanisms and identifies criteria for evaluating the outcomes of these efforts.

Download or read book Managing Business Ethics written by Alfred A. Marcus and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2019-12-19 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managing Business Ethics: Making Ethical Decisions teaches students how to navigate ethical issues they will encounter using the weight-of-reasons approach applied throughout the book. This decision-making framework’s goal is not to faithfully apply particular philosophical perspectives on what is right, but rather to solve ethical problems. Authors Alfred A. Marcus and Timothy J. Hargrave underscore the need for employees at all levels to carefully consider the ethical implications of their actions using this approach and it can be applied at the individual, organizational, and stakeholder levels. Each chapter provides a case to walk through application of the framework and mini-cases allow students to practice applying this framework on their own. A wide range of real-world case studies are presented, featuring companies such as Facebook, Google, Wells Fargo, Volkswagen, and Amazon. This practical, down-to-earth text also delves into topics not covered extensively by other books such as slow and fast thinking, the inherent conflict between the individual and organization, conformity, and the difficulties of speaking truth to power. Students are offered ample opportunity to engage in thoughtful reflection, discussion, and application as they grapple with ethical issues big and small.

Barbara Orlans Senior Research Fellow and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1997-12-31 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first set of case studies on animal use, this volume offers a thorough, up-to-date exploration of the moral issues related to animal welfare. Its main purpose is to examine how far it is ethically justifiable to harm animals in order to benefit mankind. An excellent introduction provides a framework for the cases and sets the background of philosophical and moral concepts underlying the subject.Sixteen original, previously unpublished essays cover controversies associated with the human use of animals in a broad range of contexts, including biomedical, behavioral, and wildlife research, cosmetic safety testing, education, the food industry, commerce, and animal use as pets and in religious practices. Scientific research is accorded the closest scrutiny. The authors represent a wide range of expertise within their specialized areas of research--physiology, public policy, ethics, philosophy, law, veterinary science, and psychology. The careful analysis of each case makes it possible to elevate the discourse beyond over-simplified positions, and to demonstrate the complexity of the issues. The Human Use of Animals will be welcomed by students and faculty in law, philosophy, ethics, public policy, religion, medicine, and veterinary medicine. It will also interest activists in the animal protection movement, and members of animal protection organizations and Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees.
Download or read book Ethical Choices in Contemporary Medicine written by Mary Ann Gardell Cutter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-12-05 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ethical Choices in Contemporary Medicine" jettisons the standard medical ethics models of "rights" language and shows how the bioethical problems that receive attention from the media and the public are related to and are explicable in terms of the epistemological foundations of science and medicine. These epistemological concerns include how medical knowledge is established (scientific validity), how medical protocols are administered (checks and balances), how medical certainty is evaluated (probability) and medical responsibility is framed (personal or collective), and how medical knowledge is transmitted (popular media versus professional journals) and how medical care is allocated (insurance policies and government subsides). The book examines the present predicaments of medicine within a broad cultural context and suggests that rational discourse and parochial ethical dialogue may be futile in the face of competing and incommensurable frameworks and agendas, attitudes and wishes. The authors show that, in the postmodern age, two interrelated issues surface when it comes to medicine. On the one hand, there is a strong critique of science and the privileges associated with the scientific discourse and, on the other, there is still a deep-seated quest for certainty in all medical matters.
