    Respect for persons means that researchers must obtain voluntary informed consent from participants in the study. Informed consent is achieved when participants are given accurate information about the potential risks and treatment options available. In addition, participants should be able to freely choose to begin or stop the study at any time.(1) The Tuskegee study did not fully disclose information to the participants. They told participants they were being treated for bad blood despite the fact that they were specifically studying the effects…

Care and support needs should be tailored to suit each individual. This shows respect by preserving the individual’s dignity and individuality. Their personal beliefs should be respected.…

    The Belmont Report attempts to summarize the basic ethical principles identified by the Commission in the course of its deliberations. It is the outgrowth of an intensive four-day period of discussions that were held in February 1976 at the Smithsonian Institution's Belmont Conference Center supplemented by the monthly deliberations of the Commission that were held over a period of nearly four years. It is a statement of basic ethical principles and guidelines that should assist in resolving the ethical problems that surround the conduct of research with human subjects.

    "When asked to judge whether an individual 's actions are ethical, I look beyond the actions to the individual 's character. Uprightness and integrity are key. I look for evidence of virtue in people, including such traits as honor, justice, and benevolence, believing that a virtue is not just an abstract principle" (WIEM, 2003).…

    My ethical perspective after taking the Ethics Awareness Inventory questionnaire is most closely aligned with obligation. The ‘Obligation’ perspective in the EAI, represented by the letter O, is most closely aligned with a deontological theory in which the focus is on an individual’s duty or obligation to do what is morally right. This theory looks to what we intend by our actions, rather than the consequences of our actions. Immanuel Kant is the philosopher most frequently associated with this moral theory. By appealing to ‘conscience’ and the notion that individuals are moved to action by moral reason, Kant seeks to justify that ordinary moral judgments, in the Judeo-Christian tradition, are legitimately true (Williams, 2008). I base my ethical perspective on one’s duty or obligation to do what is morally right. I believe we choose how we act and what rules we are willing to follow. The results show that from my perspective, ethical principles must be appropriate under any circumstances, be respectful of human dignity, and committed to promoting individual freedom and autonomy. The ethical profile is least closely aligned with (E) equity. The ‘Equity’ perspective in the EAI, represented by the letter E, is most closely aligned with a postmodern theory that emerged in the early 1970s and developed as a critique of the traditional principles associated with philosophical thinking in ‘modern’ times (generally considered as a part of the…

    I think that it is paramount, when discussing policies or programs that can have significant ethical consequences, that you rank the three P's as follows: principle, power and profit. When these P's aren't taken into consideration, in the right order that is, we witness acts such as those mentioned in the lecture. This week's lecture highlighted 'The Belmont Report' which holds the ethical principles of respect for persons, beneficence and justice, as what should guide researchers ethically. When you sit down and take a look at power, profit and principle, ask yourself, which of these would take these three ethical principles into account? Surely, profit wouldn't mind if someone's liberty is being infringed upon, much like power thinks little…
