Another way of defining ‘ethics’ focuses on the disciplines that study standards of conduct, such as philosophy, theology, law, psychology, or sociology” (Resnik, 2011).

...Research with human subjects has a long and often troubled history in the United States (U.S.) and throughout the world. Chances are you already have heard of some of the most egregious and well-known examples of unethical research in the biomedical sciences, such as the experiments conducted by Nazi doctors and scientists on concentration camp prisoners during World War II, and the U.S. Public Health Service (PHS) study titled "Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male" (Tuskegee Study). These abuses led to the creation of codes of research ethics in Europe and the U.S. In the wake of the Second World War, the subsequent Nuremberg Trials on war crimes produced the Nuremberg Code, which outlined ten points for conducting ethical research with human subjects. Nearly two decades later, the World Medical Association (WMA) developed a code of research ethics known as the Declaration of Helsinki, published in 1964 and subsequently revised. This document is built on both the Nuremberg Code and the physician's code of ethics known as the Declaration of Geneva. In the U.S., news that researchers deceived and withheld treatment from subjects who suffered from syphilis in the Tuskegee Study led to the creation of the National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research (National Commission or "the Commission"). The Commission was charged with establishing a code of research ethics for U.S. research involving human subjects. In 1979...

In this paper the method of torture will be examined for both encouragement and discouragement based on the views each person has of human ethics.

...Conflict Between Research and Ethics Paper Conflict Between Research and Ethics Paper HCS/435 Katherine Rossiter September 12, 2010 Conflict Between Research and Ethics Paper This paper will share an opinion of the conflicts that exist between medical research and ethics in the subject matter of patients with mental retardation with medical condition such as hepatitis. In this paper the discussion of patient consent, benefits to patient, society, and medical professionals; therapeutic research; and research outcomes. Also this paper will discuss the potential role of institutional compliance and ethics committees, potential responsibilities of management, and the managerial approach one might have taken if one were in a position of power. When talking about patient consent there is many different types of consent. To name a few types of consent, incapacitated, decision-making capacity, surrogate healthcare decision maker, informed consent, expressed consent, and implied consent. When dealing with incapacitated consent this means that the patient is lacking the ability to make a reasonable medical judgment. In this type of consent there would be a surrogate decision maker appointed. Also in an incapacitated patient that has come in from an accident there would be an implied consent this would mean that the hospital staff would do whatever they had to do to sustain life. Decision-making capacity is one where the patient has full knowledge of what they want to be...

...chose one of his graduate students, Mary Tudor, to conduct the experiment and he supervised her research. After placing the children in control and experimental groups, Tudor gave positive speech therapy to half of the children, praising the fluency of their speech, and negative speech therapy to the other half, belittling the children for every speech imperfection and telling them they were stutterers. Many of the normal speaking orphan children who received negative therapy in the experiment suffered negative psychological effects and some retained speech problems during the course of their life. Dubbed “The Monster Study” by some of Johnson’s peers who were horrified that he would experiment on orphan children to prove a theory, the experiment was kept hidden for fear Johnson’s reputation would be tarnished in the wake of human experiments conducted by the Nazis during World War II. The University of Iowa publicly apologized for the Monster Study in 2001. In this case, special obligations in human subject research and openness is being violated since humans are being used in the experiment and its even kept a secret to the public which is inhuman since some experienced psychological problems. 2. While animal experimentation can be incredibly helpful in understanding man, and developing lifesaving drugs, there have been experiments which go well beyond the realms of ethics. The monkey drug trials of 1969 were one such case. In this experiment, a large group of monkeys...

...How does respect for freedom, personal autonomy, or consent apply? DNA is very personal, and we can’t be sure this information will always be used in an ethical way. While most will agree that criminals have a limit to their rights, what about the innocent people whose DNA is kept after they are proven to have no connection to a crime? Given the personal nature of DNA, I feel this is a violation of our freedom and our right to privacy. What rights if any apply? While DNA dragnets are said to be a “voluntary” process people often feel as if they are not really being asked but rather ordered to submit their DNA to prove their innocence. If they don’t they are deemed suspicious, as if they have something to hide. If the police don’t have reasonable evidence of a crime committed by these individuals, they are in violation of the Fourth Amendment which prohibits unreasonable search and seizure. By coercing individuals to submit DNA they are seizing their personal property. What duties and/or obligations apply? While DNA is an effective tool used to solve crimes, I believe that often law enforcement relies too heavily on DNA and will tend to overlook other evidence. The mishandling of evidence because of improper training has also put many innocent people in prison. With the advances in DNA technology criminals have also found ways to prevent leaving DNA or to implicate others by planting DNA. Police officers have an obligation to look at all the evidence thoroughly instead of relying...

...A good work ethic will help you accomplish your dreams. Work ethic to me, is when you have a goal and you work hard to accomplish that goal even if you do not want to. My mom always says to me “you are lazy.” She is right, but she is also wrong in some aspects. I am lazy when it comes to school, but when it comes to wrestling I have a great work ethic. I believe that the time and effort I put into the sport helps me develop a better work ethic for when I grow up. My mom saying that I am lazy helps me better understand that to have a good work ethic you need to do everything to your best potential, even school. Furthermore, I explained how I have a good work ethic when it comes to sports, but when it comes to school I don't. Mrs. Jones always...

...A drug is defined as “chemicals that can affect bodily functions and/or structures” (217). That doesn’t narrow it down, considering many substances are capable of altering our bodies in one way or another, including but certainly not limited to alcohol and nicotine. While many times opinions clash on what is and isn’t a drug, the true moral issues are the following: Is the nonmedical use of drugs OK? And if so, can the state intervene when it comes to usage? To what degree (218)? As far as ethical theories are concerned, the choice seems clear to one side. Aristotle’s virtue ethics suggest that we ought to condemn drug use because it hinders our development. Kant says that we should never use ourselves as a means to an end, and addiction is...

...In any type of moral class, the topic of ethics is always a topic of choice early on in the semester because it is the back bone of most discussions. In the lecture regarding utilitarianism, we spoke about life boat ethics and how essentially, humans, want to chose the outcome with the greatest good for the greatest number of subjects. This example of life boat ethics, or utilitarianism, is a more sophisticated form of hedonism, but it shows that the term hedonism relates to simply the positive or negative outcomes. On a more higher level scale, Bentham states that value hedonism is, “only states of pleasure have positive intrinsic value and only states of pain have intrinsic negative value; anything else of value is mere extrinsic value”...
