Overview
After completing the work for this lecture, KINE2P08 students will be able to:
1. Describe the role of ethics in research.
2. Explain key historical events that shaped ethics in research.
3. Define select ethical issues that govern research conduct.
What events shaped the development of ethics in research?
Consider the following observations:
o
The first research study described in the evolution of
science took place ~562BC...!
Yes, that's BC as in 'Before Christ' (...not British Columbia!). Bhat (2010) describes the study conducted by King Nebuchadnezzar which is summarised below:
IV 1: Meat + Wine for 10 days
IV 2: Vegetables + Water for 10 days
DV = Physical condition.
o
The first document used to formally guide research based on ethical principles - the Nuremberg Code - was published in August, 1947AD.
So what?
o
Well, these observations indicate that for 2,508 years (plus 7 months and 1 day; or 916,247 consecutive days), people were 'permitted' to conduct research without ethical oversight. In short, that's scary!
Why do we need ethics in research?
To address this question, please watch the series of videos from Dr. Charles Weijer describing historical events that instigated
the development of ethical guidelines for conducting
research. Make notes on the events described to fully understand the significance of these historical events.

What key ethical principles are used to guide
research?
Different ethical documents (e.g., Nuremburg Code, Declaration of Helsinki, etc.) emphasize a variety of ethical principles that should be used to guide conduct in research. For the purpose of KINE2P08, it is important to know and understand major ethical principles that guide research within kinesiology. Four ethical principles are presented then discussed by Dr. Charles Weijer in the following video. These ethical principles guide research in
kinesiology and include:
o
Respect for Persons
o
Beneficience
o
Justice
o
Respect for Communities

What is a Research Ethics Board (REB)?
I
n Canada, each university will establish a REB to oversee
research conduct by doing the following:
o
Reviewing the ethical nature of research conducted under its auspices.
o
Monitoring ongoing research to ensure it meets ethical conduct standards.
o
Determine infractions of research ethics policy mandated in the TCPS which require investigation and possibly remedial action.
What do we need understand about the REB in Canada?
o
To address this question, please watch this video presented by Dr. Charles Weijer describing the nature and function of REB's.
