Course Contents
Scientific research and publication ethics covers ethical values and standards related to research and publication. Accuracy, impartiality and transparency are among the basic principles in research processes. While ethical theories include approaches such as deontological, teleological and virtue ethics, research ethics emphasizes basic principles such as nonmaleficence, justice, honesty and respect. In research design, ethical responsibility manifests itself in subject selection and the protection of participant rights. In data collection and analysis processes, it is important to ensure confidentiality, take security measures and prevent bias and manipulation. Publication ethics covers compliance with academic writing rules, the definition and prevention of plagiarism, and the ethical dimensions of authorship criteria and refereeing processes. In addition, the functioning of ethics committees and the approval processes required for research projects are indispensable elements of ethical oversight. Ethical violations include practices such as plagiarism, data fabrication, distortion and repetitive publication. The negative impact of these violations on the world of science and society is remarkable.Within the scope of ethical regulations, national legislation as well as international guidelines such as the Declaration of Helsinki and the Belmont Report set standards for research and publication ethics. Finally, case studies and ethical problem solving methods aim to provide skills to evaluate ethical problems and develop solutions through real cases. In this context, all these elements contribute to the development of ethical awareness in scientific research and publication processes.
