Every research project that involves humans should balance harms and benefits. +
This is a factual case. Allegations of data fabrication and authorship issues have led to the retraction of a large volume of papers authored by a bone researcher. +
This online course provides an introduction to Responsible Conduct of Research, by providing different examples of ethical issues that students and investigators could face. The online course has six different sections that cover important topics in responsible conduct of research, namely:
*Ethical issues in research
*Interpersonal responsibility
*Institutional responsibility
*Professional responsibility
*Animals in research
*Human participation i research +
The University of Oslo's ethical guidelines cover different general areas such as general principles, individual responsibilities, discrimination and harassment, standards for research integrity, conflicts of interest, end collaboration. +
This Web page outlines how fraudulent documents will be handled by the university. Applicants who attempt to submit fraudulent documents act against the national law, and as such, are liable to criminal prosecution. +
The School of Medicine in Split was established as an independent faculty on 26th March 1997. It is one of the components of the University of Split. +
This detailed ethics handbook, authored by the University of Tartu, was born out of the increased public and political in ethics in Estonia during the early 2000s. At the same time, there were also a variety of views on the essence of what constituted ethics, and what should be included in codes of ethics. This document was thus created to inform both the public and the research community on the importance of codes of ethics and the resources available to develop or modify ethical codes. +
The case is about a factual controversy that surrounded the experimental usage of a heart valve device called a Myxo ring. A doctor accused the inventor of the device of using the Myxo ring on patients with surgical needs without informing them the device is not licensed. The university refused the accusations arguing that the ring is FDA approved. Some conflict of interests issues are also discussed. +
This scenario focuses on training, supervision and mentoring issues that might occur in doctoral education. +
This is a short interview with a research who describes some of the ethical issues that arise from running international clinical trials. The researcher gives the example of the fictional US based company Rx who wants to run a trial in Russia for a certain medication. One reason for such a company to 'outsource' a clinical trial is lower costs in other countries. Questions asked in the case include 'what is the quality of the informed consent?' and 'can you promise participants to receive a certain drug for the study period, but not afterwards?' +
This short text provides important elements to increase empathy in history education: highlighting lesser-told stories which can contribute to the multi-perspectivity, using paired texts (particularly primary sources), sharing stories of young people from history that could inspire students to think about their own role in the world and using role-playing activities so that students can put themselves in the position of someone else from the past. +
Defining learning objectives serves as a cornerstone for creating successful and impactful learning environments. Learning objectives, i.e. what the learners should learn by taking part in the training, guides the choice of the learning process, the content, activities and assessment. This should guide the choice of content, activities and assessment. Using taxonomies for defining learning objectives can help trainers ensure that the teaching is geared towards supporting learning in an adequate way. For instance, if the expectation is that learners can employ research ethics procedures in practice, it may not be sufficient to have learning goals that emphasise memorising or familiarising, but optimally there would be learning goals for application of knowledge as well. Taxonomies are helpful for setting and calibrating training at the proper level. Learning objectives can be defined by using different taxonomies. [https://poorvucenter.yale.edu/BloomsTaxonomy Bloom's taxonomy] categorises educational goals into a hierarchical model, from simple recall of facts to complex evaluation and creation tasks. The [https://www.johnbiggs.com.au/academic/solo-taxonomy/ SOLO] (Structure of Observed Learning Outcomes) taxonomy, on the other hand, describes levels of increasing complexity in a learner's understanding of subjects, ranging from unistructural to extended abstract levels. +

This study used cases with contrary facts and circumstances for analyzing ethical problems in public health, biomedicine and other disciplines. This approach proved to be a useful tool for ethics analysis. +
Using data not created for research purposes in the context of collaboration with private companies +
This scenario discusses the use of big data in the context of public health research and highlights some research integrity challenges arising as a result of collaborations between researchers and private companies.
Research ethics issues related to the scenario include:
* data reuse,
*replicability of results
*conflicts of interests,
*HARKing,
*informed consent,
*honesty in communication of results,
*reliability of data +
This study presents Codes of Conduct/Codes of Ethics developed by students as a classroom exercise. The aim of the exercise was to improve students' understanding of why and how these codes are developed and implemented in the workplace. +
<u>[https://www.eur.nl/en/about-eur/policy-and-regulations/integrity/research-integrity/dilemma-game Rotterdam İkilem Oyunu]</u> (RİO), Rotterdam Erasmus Üniversitesi tarafından geliştirilmiş, araştırma doğruluğuna ilişkin çeşitli konular üzerinde duran ve kısaca açıklanmış 75 ikilemden oluşan bir kart oyunudur. Oyun, araştırmacılardan oluşan ve çeşitlilik barındıran kapsamlı bir kitleyi hedeflemektedir ve araştırmacıların kariyerleri süresince karşı karşıya kalabilecekleri ahlaki ikilemlere ilişkin diyaloğu teşvik etmek üzere tasarlanmıştır. RİO pek çok farklı amaç için kullanılabilir. Örneğin, araştırma doğruluğu (AD) konularında farkındalığı artırmak için bir grup genç araştırmacının olduğu bir kurs ortamında eğitim aracı olarak kullanılabilir ya da aynı laboratuvar veya kurumda çalışan ekip üyeleri tarafından, birbirlerinin AD ikilemlerine ilişkin bakış açıları hakkında fikir edinme amaçlı olarak oynanabilir.
Uyarlanmış RİO, VIRT2UE projesi kapsamında, araştırmacılar için günlük faaliyetlerde önemli olan erdem ve değerler üzerine odaklanmak ve Araştırmalarda Dürüstlük Konusunda Avrupa Davranış Kodu’nun (ECoC) prensiplerine ve içeriğine dikkat çekmek amacıyla geliştirilmiştir. +
<u>[https://www.eur.nl/en/about-eur/policy-and-regulations/integrity/research-integrity/dilemma-game Rotterdam İkilem Oyunu]</u> (RİO), araştırma doğruluğuna ilişkin çeşitli konulardaki ikilemlerden oluşan bir kart oyunudur. Burada verilen ikilemler gerçek vakalara dayandığı için araştırma aktivitelerinde bulunan kişilere anlaşılabilir ve alakalı gelecek ikilemlerdir.
Oyun, Rotterdam Erasmus Üniversitesi tarafından araştırmacılar, koordinatörler, danışmanlar, yöneticiler, hakemler ve farklı düzeylerde araştırma süreçlerine dahil olan herkes için geliştirilmiştir. Oyunda her biri bir ikileme ilişkin kısa açıklamalar içeren ve üç ana kategori altında toplanan 75 vaka bulunmaktadır: araştırmacının pozisyonu, araştırma stratejisi ve araştırma safhası. Oyuncular, tartışmak istedikleri konuya uygun bir vakayı seçebilirler.
Oyun;deneyim, fikir, perspektif ve temellendirmeleri paylaşmak için bir alıştırma olarak kullanılabilir. Aynı zamanda resmi olarak tanımlanmış prensiplere, eylemlerimizin ahlaki içeriğine ve karar verme sürecinde değer ve normların rolüne ilişkin ortak bir anlayış geliştirmeye yardımcı olabilir. Rotterdam Erasmus Üniversitesi tarafından geliştirilmiş olan orijinal oyun kiti, VIRT2UE projesi bağlamında bir uyarlamaya tabi tutulmuştur. Bu uyarlamanın amacı araştırma süreçleriyle ilişkili erdem ve değerlere ilişkin farkındalık geliştirmek ve [https://allea.org/code-of-conduct/ Araştırmalarda Dürüstlük Konusunda Avrupa Davranış Kodu] (ECoC) ile kabul edilmiş olan prensiplere dikkat çekmektir. Bu bağlamda, uyarlanmış RİO içerisinde, ahlaki bir seçimin ardında yatan temellendirmeleri paylaşırken diyaloğa dayalı bir yaklaşıma odaklanmak ve bu gerekçelendirmeleri ECoC’ta belirtilen erdem ve değerlerle ilişkilendirmek gibi pek çok değişiklik yapılmıştır. +
