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.
This scholarly yet accessible edited volume is essential reading for social/behavioral scientists at any career level, and is particularly valuable during our current time of social change, as technological advances, team science, and data-sharing promise to enhance research capabilities while policy and regulation begin to bend toward a more just society. A defining feature of the book—and what sets it apart from others in this space—is the recognition that, while the fundamental principles of ethical research are constant, the application of those principles to respectful, just, and beneficent science requires ongoing, honest, and vigilant interrogation by all of those involved in the process of knowledge generation. -- Thomas Eissenberg, PhD, Professor of Psychology and Co-Director, Center for the Study of Tobacco Products, Department of Psychology (Health Program), College of Humanities and Sciences, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond
A must-have resource for new and seasoned researchers alike, written by some of today’s preeminent thinkers in research ethics.

This excellent book assists researchers and institutional review board/ethics committee members in addressing challenging ethical, regulatory, and scientific issues impacting protection of human participants in research. I recommend it!
