Handbook of research ethics in psychological science.

"A rich guide for understanding the evolving research landscape in psychology, including changes to core research ethics concepts such as informed consent, privacy, and risk of harm. This handbook offers a thorough and authoritative discussion of the ethical issues in conducting research with human participants. Each chapter poses an important ethical question, considers the relevant factors for addressing the question, and presents guidance for investigators. Topics include: informed consent, deception, risk/benefit ratio, data security, authorship, conflicts of interest, fairness and equity when collaborating with researchers in resource-poor settings, and more. While psychological research with humans still takes place in the investigator's laboratory and field, there is an increasing trend toward multiple investigators and interdisciplinary research projects owing to the complexity of modern research questions. Furthermore, technology has changed dramatically and affects all psychological researchers, whether they are working individually or in large teams. With its comprehensive scope and practical guidance, this book will serve as an invaluable aid to understanding and navigating the ethical challenges that confront new and seasoned researchers alike"-- Provided by publisher Contents 6 Contributors 8 Preface 10 Chapter 1 Framework for the Ethical Conduct of Research: The Ethical Principles of the Belmont Report 18 Chapter 2 Planning Research: Regulatory Compliance Considerations 38 Chapter 3 Risk–Benefit Assessment and Privacy 50 Chapter 4 Informed Consent 70 Chapter 5 Addressing Conflicts of Interests in Behavioral Science Research 88 Chapter 6 Data Sharing 98 Chapter 7 Understanding Research Misconduct 114 Chapter 8 Ethics in Coercive Environments: Ensuring Voluntary Participation in Research 128 Chapter 9 Ethical Challenges in International and Global Research 140 Chapter 10 The Ethics of Mental Health Intervention Research 154 Chapter 11 Ethical Issues in Neurobiological Research 178 Chapter 12 Research Using the Internet and Mobile Technologies 192 Chapter 13 Research in and With Communities 206 Chapter 14 Legal and Ethical Requirements for Research With Minors 220 Appendix A The Belmont Report 236 Appendix B Title 45 Code of Federal Regulations Part 46, Subparts A–E 250 Appendix C Title 34 Code of Federal Regulations Part 98 294 Appendix D Title 34 Code of Federal Regulations Part 99 300 Appendix E Additional Resources 338 Index 340 About the Editors 352
