Assignment - Ethics in Research (1,500 words)
In this assignment, you will begin to explore what is involved when considering ethics and ethical implications as part of a research project. When working on research projects, successful ethics applications naturally play a large part in not only gaining approval for the project, but also anticipating and trouble-shooting any problems that might arise when conducting the study. It's also a really helpful way to work out the appropriate research protocol, so getting it 'right' is critical.
Scenario: You have been asked to help complete an ethics application for an organisation or group so they can begin a research project. Select one of the following options (topics) as the subject of your assignment (they are all based on actual projects):
1. Evaluating a self-empowerment program aimed at reducing re-offending at the Youth Unit of Melbourne's Port Phillip Prison.
2. Conducting a survey among staff and patient families in the Intensive Care Unit at the Alfred Hospital, aimed at improving patient experiences.
3. Evaluating outcomes from programs aimed at reducing domestic violence with participants from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities at various inner city community health centres, facilitated by staff from the Centre for Culture Ethnicity and Health, Richmond.
4. Monitoring and evaluating Aboriginal tobacco control by conducting a survey aimed at identifying smoking rates in remote Indigenous towns, as requested by the Lowitja Institute.
5. Evaluating outcomes from peer-education programs aimed at increasing safe sex education and practices among youth aged between 18-26 years.
As the ethics advisor, you will need to a) identify key ethical implications associated with the proposed research based on associated/similar studies, b) relate these issues to the relevant items in the ethics application form, and c) suggest effective strategies for addressing them so that the ethics application will be approved for the project to go ahead.
