    The men were told that they were ill and promised free care. Offered therapy on a golden platter, they became willing subjects”.(Ogunburg) One of the main ethical issues that was raised in this film and through this study was that the participants were not informed that they had syphilis and what syphilis was. “Deceiving people is unethical” (Babbes, Rubin, 2011, pg. 83) and throughout the study, the participants were being treated unethically because the researchers and the doctors deceived the men into thinking syphilis was treatable and not as serious as it really was by minimizing the impact syphilis had on their bodies. Due to lack of education and economic status the participants in this study were easy to influence.

    Emotionless sex is not possible and yet so many students believe it is. While many truly enjoy their sexual activity, they are only in the minority. The hookup culture values men more so than women when it comes to needs and desires. However, to say that men are happy in the hookup culture is wrong. The hookup culture applauds masculine behavior and seeks to remove caring, affectionate, and loving behavior, yet so many of Wade’s students have reported that they want “meaningful connections with others” (Wade 245).

  • APA Ethics: The Impact Of Principle A

    410 Words  | 2 Pages

    The first APA ethical principle I’d like to discuss in terms of the impacts it may have on my consulting project with NW Noggin is Principle A which is further comprised of the principles of beneficence and nonmaleficence. The principle of beneficence says physicians are expected to care for their patients to the best of their ability; essentially this ethical principle implies physicians should behave in an altruistic and charitable manner towards their patients (e.g., selflessness, serving the greater good). The principle of nonmaleficence parallels the principle of beneficence, for it exclaims a physician will do no harm (i.e., the no harm rule) meaning they will avoid committing unnecessary harm to their patients. In my consulting project, the potential impacts of Principle A could arise in the development and implementation of services for both the consultants and the organization they are serving.

The first step that should be taken is to assess of the justifiability of your research. What is the exact reason as to why this experiment should be done and is it really necessary?

    Discussion: I think the hardest plagiarism to avoid is paraphrasing. The reason I think paraphrasing is the hardest is because sometimes its hard to paraphrase someone's else's work without saying just about everything that they stated without getting your point across to your professor. In the academic integrity video I failed the paraphrasing section and I believe I failed that section because I paraphrased the paragraph wrong, by saying wrong I mean I don't think I put my words together well enough stating what the author said properly. By me not paraphrasing it properly I failed , so that let me know that when writing papers this term I need to work on my paraphrasing a lot.
