| 505 | 0 | |a List of Contributing Authors; Acknowledgments; Introduction; The goal of this book is to welcome researchers into the community of question-askers; The problem facing new researchers is that research pressures undermine vocations; The solution is not RCR training or a series of unconnected lectures and online exercises; The solution is a vibrant moral community and a coherent introduction to ethical thinking; Research means asking questions and looking for answers; Ethics means asking questions and looking for answers about right and wrong, and good and bad; 1. It is serious. | |
| 505 | 8 | |a 2. It is fair3. It is overriding; 4. It is systematic; The plan of this book is to introduce the RCR topics organized as an expanding moral circle; Bibliography; Part A Protect my interests; Graduate students have diverse interests; yet all have a common set of duties; including the duty to avoid research misconduct; Case study: ""Can of worms, "" by John Allen5; Chasing phantoms; Trying to do good; Heroes; and to blow the whistle; But is whistle-blowing really in an egoist' s interests?; Kinds of interests. | |
| 505 | 8 | |a Rational egoism is the view that one should always act to best satisfy one⁺ѓs categorical interestsHow to proceed as an egoist; Bibliography; Chapter 1 Report misconduct; What is cheating?; 1. An act of rule-breaking; 2. With the intention not to be caught; 3. In a context in which permission to break the rule has not been granted; Is cheating unethical for egoists?; No: egoists have reasons to cheat; Yes: egoists have stronger reasons not to cheat; because they have their own internal filters; and are surrounded by cheater detectors; cheater detectors who disapprove of cheaters. | |
| 505 | 8 | |a And punish cheatersand, furthermore, the community requires whistle-blowing; So, in situations of confusion and ambiguity, honesty seems the best policy -- even for egoists; 1. Excellent researchers are not necessarily ethical researchers; 2. Everyone is not doing it; 3. Faculty and administrators can do something about it; 4. And students can do something about it; Bibliography; Chapter 2 Avoid plagiarism; Protect myself against charges of plagiarism; Can I get away with it?; Key; Why words matter to the egoist; Conclusion; Bibliography; Chapter 3 Beware intuition. | |
| 505 | 8 | |a Egoists must be conscious of observation biaswary of misleading heuristics; and on guard against self-misunderstanding; not to mention probability ineptness; To safeguard judgments against prejudice and intuition, engage others; Bibliography; Chapter 4 Justify decisions; Give reasons to justify your decisions; especially in borderline cases; Blots and gels; Gross misrepresentation; More subtle manipulations; Brightness/contrast adjustments; Cleaning up background; Splicing lanes together; Micrographs; Enhancing a specific feature; Linear vs. nonlinear adjustments. | |

| 520 | |a "Ordinarily, responsible conduct of research (RCR) 'training' consists of lectures accompanied by generic exercises on 'core' topics. Research Ethics takes a novel, philosophical approach to the RCR and the teaching of moral decision-making. Part I introduces egoism and explains that it is in the individuals own interest to avoid misconduct, fabrication of data, plagiarism and bias. Part II takes up contractualism and covers issues of authorship, peer review and responsible use of statistics. Part III introduces moral rights as the basis of informed consent, the use of humans in research, mentoring, intellectual property and conflicts of interests. Part IV uses two-level utilitarianism to explore the possibilities and limits of the experimental use of animals, duties to the environment and future generations, and the social responsibilities of researchers. This book replaces mind-numbing rote exercises with an adventure in moral imagination and is an essential guide for graduate students in all disciplines"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
