Research ethics: 

  • It is a guideline for the responsible conducts of a research
  • It related to the ethical principles of social responsibility
  • There are three types of ethics, metaethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics
  • Ethics always help us to identify right or wrong, differentiate good or bad
  • Research is a multi-stage process. Ethics are central to the research process. 

Some of the research ethics are as follows:

  • Honesty: the researcher should be honest about the method, report data, results, publish the status.
  • Integrity: researcher should care about the agreement or promises done before the research
  • Objectivity: This is to avoid bias
  • Respect intellectual property: Avoiding Plagiarism or any kind of copyright or duplication. Avoid using unpublished data or method or other without permission
  • Carefulness: avoided error driven by negligence, keep record step of every step
  • Confidentiality: keep confidentiality of collected data
  • Responsibility: The responsibility of monitoring others, social responsibilities, use reliable and authentic data, etc.
  • Protection: protection of human subject, animal, or any other natural property
  • Competence: maintain professional and scientific competence
  • Legal: maintain legal aspects like government law, policies, institutional policies, etc.

  • Research ethics is most important for the selection of variables and data collection.
  • The last stage of successful research is reporting the research result
  • In all the previous stages ethical issue is very important.
  • Results come after doing all the work like data collection, analysis, maintain ethical issues, avoid all unauthentic information, and do all the relevant work step by step.

  • As far as Identification, definition, and delimitation of the research problem, defining the population, sampling procedures, and techniques, and deciding the quantitative or qualitative tracks or both for pursuing the research problem are more concerned with the theoretical approach and not false under strict research parameters.

  • Hence, in an absolute sense- defining a research population, method of sampling and interpretation, reporting the research findings​ stand pertinent to research ethics.
