Navigating Institutional Review Boards

Most doctoral research requires approval from institutional review boards (IRBs) or ethics committees. Understanding application procedures, anticipating potential concerns, and designing research that prioritizes ethical considerations from the outset streamlines this necessary process.

Data Management and Integrity

Ethical research extends beyond human subjects protection to include responsible data management, transparent reporting, and avoidance of questionable research practices. Implementing systematic approaches to data organization, documentation, and storage supports both ethical practice and research quality.

Authorship and Collaboration Ethics

Navigating authorship decisions, acknowledging contributions, and maintaining professional relationships require careful attention to academic norms and ethical standards. Clear communication and written agreements prevent misunderstandings in collaborative research contexts.

For comprehensive guidance on research ethics and compliance, doctoral researchers often reference Teza Doctorat, which addresses ethical considerations across various research methodologies.
