Discuss and learn about the ethical choices faced in academic research in the social sciences

This book provides a basis for class discussion about the responsible conduct of social science research. These 16 brief research ethics cases describe situations in which ethical dilemmas arise and present students with the opportunity to think through the different implications for researchers. The cases emphasize different types of ethical dilemmas involving faculty, students, participants, and stakeholders. Included are the original cases, complete with learning objectives, teaching notes, and questions for discussion.


"...the cases presented are exceptionally well thought-out and presented at an appropriate level
for graduate students." -
T. Gregory Barrett, University of Arkansas

"This book fills a gap in the literature...The broad range of topics covers many issues of concern to all social scientists." - Sue Ann Taylor, American University

Industry Reviews
"The authors do a great job of providing very thought-provoking cases covering a broad array of ethical issues in a variety of social science research settings." -- Scott Vollum "These thorough case studies provide an effective gateway for entering into class discussions that can reveal contemporary approaches and understandings of the ethical issues involved in the conduct and publication of social science research. I think the cases presented are exceptionally well thought-out and presented at an appropriate level for graduate students." -- T. Gregory Barrett "This book fills a gap in the literature. It is readable. It is a good teaching tool. The broad range of topics covers many issues of concern to all social scientists. Topics overlooked in most textbooks are included here (e.g., consulting, misdeeds, mentor/student relationships, data management, conflict of interests). The case study approach is an excellent way of adding the material to courses on ethics, research methods, or professional practice. The questions provide an opportunity for critical thinking and debate." -- Sue Ann Taylor
