Handbook of Research Ethics in Psychological Science

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 amp rsquo s preeminent thinkers in research ethics. - Tracy S. Arwood, MS, Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer, Clemson University, Clemson, SC 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! - Ada Sue Selwitz, MA, Executive Integrity/Compliance Advisor, Office of the Vice President for Research & Center for Clinical and Translational Science, University of Kentucky, Lexington
