Week 3: Ethical Principles in Global Research
Ethical and legal issues relating to clinical research especially those involving human subjects have for decades dominated debates among, scientist, lawyers, clinicians as well as policymakers due to the high risks involved. Consequently, many guidelines toward hindering research misconduct have been set out. Some of the most prominent ones are the Hippocratic Oath, the Declaration of Helsinki which was formulated in 1964 and The Belmont Report (Yip, Han, & Sng, 2016). Nonetheless, there have been numerous instances that ethical and legal guidelines have been blatantly overlooked and the participants subjected to harm notably the Tuskegee experiment and the Nuremberg trials. Consequently, it is vital to explore current research in the global arena and more importantly in the vulnerable communities.
According to Folayan, Haire, Harrison, Odetoyingbo, Fatusi, and Brown (2015), there are
numerous ethical issues in adolescents’ sexual reproductive health research in Nigeria which is essential in identifying health concerns as well as ways combatting HIV/AIDs. One of the major concerns is autonomous decision making as informed consent is a crucial requirement for research participation. Besides, it should be voluntarily obtained and undue of coercion or inducement. However, the adolescents have considerably low legal capacity and are also vulnerable to incompetent decision making. The laws on the age of consent for participation in research are unclear and thus may necessitate parental consent which compromises the privacy and confidentiality of research and subsequently the autonomy.
