Ethical principles

[Genericname2365]

So there is beneficence, integrity, respect for persons, justice, debriefing, voluntary participation, confidentiality, withdrawal rights, and informed consent (as well as ethics of using animals in research).

What confuses me is that the first four I listed were taught in the CNS chapter in unit 3 from the Grivas textbook, related to brain research. For the exam, are they all considered to be ethical principles that you can answer a question with? There seems to be a bit of overlap with some of them (e.g. informed consent apparently comes under beneficence.)

I'm not sure what book you are using but these are the ethical principles mentioned in the study design:

 "ethical principles and professional conduct: the role of the experimenter; protection and security of participants’ rights; confidentiality; voluntary participation; withdrawal rights; informed consent procedures; use of deception in research; debriefing; use of animals in research; role of ethics committees"

I would probably just stick to these, because they are the most obvious and easy to write about anyway (in my opinion). Remember, you don't get extra marks for having a more complicated example!

Ok thanks.  I was using the Grivas textbook, but I guess the ones I mentioned are more for the brain research.
