31. Code of ethics for research followed by the departments

CODE OF ETHICS FOR RESEARCH

Departmental Code of Ethics for research is based on the following:

1. Respect for the Rights and Dignity of the Person 2. Competence 3. Responsibility 4. Integrity I. Respect for the Rights and Dignity of the Person

Department ensures that the faculty

1. Undertake the interests of the community in particular and the country in general. 2. Take care not to infringe, in research or service activities. 3. Share confidential information with others only with the informed consent of those involved,

or in a manner that the individuals involved cannot be identified, except as required or justified by law.

4. Store, handle, transfer and dispose of all records, both written and unwritten (for example, computer files, video tapes), in a way that attends to the needs for privacy and security and which is in accordance with the law.

5. Respect the rights of research participants and others to safeguard their own dignity. 6. Respect the right of individuals to discontinue participation in research at any time, and be

responsive to non-verbal indications of a desire to discontinue if individuals have difficulty in verbally communicating such a desire.

7. That the research will contribute to the well-being of the group.

II. Competence


1. Engaged in research is appropriately qualified.

2. Keep up to date with relevant knowledge, research methods, and techniques, through the

reading of relevant literature, peer consultation, and continuing education activities, in order

that research activities and conclusions shall benefit and not harm others.

III. Responsibility


1. Engaged in research be aware of their professional responsibilities to institute including

research participants.

420

2. Be sensitive to the needs, current issues, and problems of society.

3. Maintains the highest standards of integrity.

4. Be sensitive to, and knowledgeable about, individual differences and vulnerabilities to

discern what will benefit and not harm persons involved in research activities.

5. Not contribute to, nor engage in, research which promotes or is intended for use in

deliberate impairment of an individual's psychological integrity.

6. Act to minimize the impact of research activities on research participants‘ personality or

their mental or physical integrity.

7. Screen research participants and select those not likely to be harmed, if risk or harm to

some research participants is possible.

IV. Integrity

Department ensures that the faculty 1. Promotes integrity in the undertaking of its research.

2. Conduct research in a way that is consistent with a commitment to honest, open inquiry,

and to clear communication of any research aims, sponsorship, social context, personal

values, or financial interests that may affect or appear to affect the research.

3. Give publication credit to others (as appropriate) in proportion to the professional

contribution that they have made.

4. Not exploit any professional relationship to further personal, political or business

interests.

5. Be acutely aware of the problematic nature of dual relationships and recognize that it is

not always possible to avoid them. Where it is possible, avoid such relationships; where it

is not, steps should be taken to safeguard research participants‘ interests.
