Abstract:
The significance of the ethical review process in human-based research undertakings cannot be overemphasized as it is necessary to uphold ethical standards and protect participants. However, the review process per se can act as a bottleneck, potentially hindering research progress and leading to academic dishonesty. The present work explores the benefits and challenges of ethical review, emphasizing issues like intellectual theft, forced authorship, and the stifling of independent researchers. Proposed solutions include leveraging previously approved designs, empowering experienced professors for clearance, establishing panels of researchers, creating voluntary ethical approval offices, utilizing private consultancy offices, and establishing a transnational ethical clearance authority. In conclusion, this work stresses the importance of finding mechanisms to streamline the ethical review process while maintaining ethical standards to foster integrity in research and combat academic dishonesty.
摘要:
伦理审查过程在基于人类的研究事业中的重要性怎么强调都不为过,因为有必要坚持伦理标准和保护参与者。然而,审查过程本身可能会成为瓶颈,可能阻碍研究进展,导致学术不诚实。本工作探讨了伦理审查的好处和挑战,强调诸如智力盗窃之类的问题,强迫作者,以及独立研究人员的窒息。拟议的解决方案包括利用先前批准的设计,授权有经验的教授批准,成立研究小组,建立自愿的道德审批办公室,利用私人咨询办公室,建立跨国道德清理机构。总之,这项工作强调,必须寻找机制来简化道德审查程序,同时保持道德标准,以促进研究的诚信和打击学术不诚实。
