Ethical Issues of Informed Consent: Students as Participants in Faculty Research

Abstract

Educators may face an ethical dilemma when they conduct research by using their own students as participants. The dual role conflict, coercion, confidentiality, misconstruction, and unawareness of the informed consent documents have been discussed as ethical issues in such faculty research. The educators as the researchers should be aware of these ethical dilemmas and attempt to implement the informed consent effectively. Thus, this article explores the ethical considerations of informed consent for the educational setting that students are recruited in the faculty research. Furthermore, this article represented recommendations for potentially resolving the ethical dilemmas of informed consent surrounding this phenomenon which consisted of eliminating dual role conflict and coercion, guarding confidentiality, and promoting good construction and awareness of the informed consent documents.

A strategy to enhance the quality of public administration services at better Tadulako University

“…Ensuring research integrity and respecting participants' rights are paramount. (Caulfield et al, 2020;Michael Nnaemeka Ajemba & Ebube Chinwe Arene, 2022;Tulyakul & Meepring, 2020). In presenting the results, the study will describe how Tadulako University's public administration capacity-building strategy is implemented, its effects, and recommendations for further development.…”

Den praktiknära forskningens bidrag till läraryrkets kunskapsbas

“…Det finns en (social) risk att skriva om vad kollegor producerat i termer av vetenskapliga produkter, men också en risk att skriva med kollegor.

I denna studies sammanhang aktualiseras etiska frågor som i första hand handlar om relationer (snarare än principer).…”
