Preferred term

ethics in industrial/organizational research  

Definition

  • Ethics has to do with defining what is meant by right and wrong or good and evil (or bad) and with justifying according to some rational system what one ought to do or what sort of person one should be. As applied to the conduct of research with human participants, the ethics of research concerns the proper treatment of those participants—their protection—by researchers.
