thank you
hello everyone in this session we are
going to discuss about scientific
conducts in research
so scientific conductor refers to
ethical principles that guide the
conduct of scientific research so some
ethical principles are there like
honesty Integrity transparency
accountability and respect for others
these are some ethical principles that
guides the conduct of scientific
research
now scientific misconduct is a bridge in
this principle all right so if you are
breaching the honesty in the research if
you are breaching the Integrity if you
are breaching the transparency we are
bitching the accountability or respect
for others
it means that you may have to face some
serious consequences for the scientific
community in public so we must have to
follow all these ethical principles so
let's explore them one by one if we talk
about honesty these are some of the key
ethical principles these are some of the
key ethical principles
right so if we talk about honesty in
scientific research so basically honesty
means researchers must honest in all
aspect of their research from the design
of the study to the reporting all the
results this means not fabricating or
falsifying the data and not plagiarize
the work of other so researcher must
have to be honest
it doesn't mean that a researchers
should use the work of some other
authors
some other researchers without
mentioning them it would lead to
dishonesty as well as researchers
do not have to
mislead the data
researchers must note manipulate the
data keep the data as it is it should
not be biased right so all these things
lead to honesty so these are some of the
key ethical principles honesty is one of
them
second one is integrity
so researcher must act with Integrity in
all aspect of their research it means
that being objective and unbiased in
their approach and not allowing personal
or financial interest to influence their
work so the research must have integrity
in all aspect of research it should be
unbiased it should not like that if
anybody is giving you some Financial
assistant or influencing your research
with the help of some kind of
uh you can say that rewards it should
not be like that it must have integrity
in that and then transparency
researchers must be transparent in their
research whatever they are doing it
means that their data their methods of
research should be available publicly so
that further Works can be done on that
right and it should be verified publicly
so transparency should be there in the
work
there after accountability so
researchers must be accountable for
their work
researchers must be accountable for
their works whatever they are doing this
means being willing to answer questions
about their research and correct any
errors if they are found or told by any
any other researchers right so
researchers must be accountable for the
work that he or she is doing
and respect for others
researchers must respect the rights of
others in their research this means
obtaining informed consent for human
participants in treating animals humanly
it should not like that if you are
having some human participants then you
must have to keep some respect for them
yeah right you need to work humanly you
need to keep their privacy rights right
you need to treat animals so that they
cannot be kind of frustrated right you
need to treat the animals so they know
any kind of loss should be violated
right so we must have to keep these
principles in our mind if we are doing
scientific research these are some of
the key ethical principles of scientific
conduct all are under scientific conduct
right now if we talk about Ethics in
science and research
then in science and research it involves
adhering to moral principles basically
and conducting research in responsible
and ethical manner basically it include
informed consent means
respecting the autonomy of research
participants by obtaining their informed
consent before involving them in a study
for example if you are using some data
some research data from any other
research study you must have to inform
the their authors who are taking any
data from any particular website or any
particular
published work you must have but you
must have a kind of permission so that
it should not create it should not miss
it should not lead to the misconduct of
scientific research right so you should
have to follow this ethics participants
should fully informed about their
purpose risk and benefits of the
research in their privacy and
confidentiality should be protected
right so it whoever you are taking into
the research they must know what is the
purpose of This research it should not
be like that you are including their
data and they doesn't know you you are
making them full right it should not be
like that
now second one is human and animal
welfare basically we are talking about
ethics in scientific science and
research so informed consent then human
and animal welfare ensuring the welfare
and well-being of human and animal
subject involved in research basically
many types of research are there there
is a need of animals or humans and they
must have to participate directly in
that right so researchers should
prioritize the avoidance of harm and
minimize discomfort or sufferings should
not be like that you are discomforting
or you you are because of your research
animals are suffering right so you
should have to be keep away with their
comfort level right and this is very
important ethics right okay conflict of
interest
so disclosing any potential conflicts of
interest that may compromise the
objectivity or impartiality of the
research findings Financial professional
or personal interest that could
influence the research should be
acknowledged and managed appropriately
right
data fabrication and falsification it
should not be like that whatever data is
there you are making manipulating it and
you are creating data on your own which
doesn't existed so it should not be like
that and plagiarism you are using the
work of others without their credit
without giving them proper credit so all
these things are under ethics ethics in
size and science and research we must
have to keep aware of it and we must
have to follow uh these ethics for doing
a good scientific research right now if
I talk about intellectual honesty then
uh intellectual honesty the essential
aspect of scientific conduct it is an
essential aspect of scientific conduct
which emphasizes the integrity and
sincerity in the pursuit of
communication of scientific knowledge
so intellectual honesty means we can
include rigor and objectivity Point here
conducting research with rigor
objectivity and transparency researchers
should employ a robust methodologies
analyze data objectively and draw
conclusions based on evidence without
bias or undo influence right
attribution and credit giving proper
attribution and credit to the
contributions of others researchers
should acknowledge the work
ideas and findings of fellow scientists
and collaborators
openness to criticism and feedback
welcoming and considering constructive
criticism and feedback from peers in
scientific Community
intellectual honesty involves a
willingness to reassess and revise one's
own work in light of new evidence or
perspectives
intellectual Independence
maintaining intellectual Independence
and avoiding undue influences or
pressures that may compromise the
objectivity and integrity
of research researchers should pursue
knowledge based on evidence and avoid
conflicts or of Interest or bias so in
intellectual honesty we can put like
rigor and objectivity basically
researchers should employ a robust
methodologies they should have to
analyze the data objectively draw a
conclusion based on whatever there is
evidence whatever proofings are there
without any kind of bias or undue
influence of any Financial any personal
gain right attribution proper
attribution and credit should be there
if you even though
taken some work you must have to
acknowledge all the persons whoever was
the or whoever is the part of your
research study openness to criticism and
feedback whatever feedback you are
getting from the colleagues or from
different authors different researchers
and there might be people who make
criticism so you should have to be
openness with that and intellectual
Independence maintaining intellectual
Independence and avoiding undue
influences or pressures that you may
compromise with the results or the
conclusions done it should not be like
that so this is all under intellectual
honesty right and now if I talk about
research Integrity because it is also
part of scientific conduct that is why
we are discussing it right here so
research Integrity refers to adherence
to professional and ethical standards
throughout the research process it
includes a reproducibility and
transparency ensuring that research
methods or data data findings are
transparent and reproducible it means
that whatever research you are doing it
should in future if some other
researcher want to continue his or her
research study on that particular topic
it should be reproducible right and
complete transparency should be there so
whatever methods you have used whatever
data you have applied and you have used
should be available publicly to the
others users so that they can test them
publicly at any particular time this
would create a good scientific research
right peer review
submitting research findings to peer
review where experts in the field of
critically evaluate the quality and
validity of the research peer reviews
helps ensure the integrity and
reliability of your published work so
peer review is very important part of
research Integrity right and because of
that integrity and reliability of the
your work should be seen right and it
evaluate the quality and validity of the
research quality and validity of the
research right
a responsible authorship assigning
authorship credit appropriately based on
significant contributions to the
research and all authors should take
responsibility for the integrity and
accuracy of the work so responsible
authorship should be there it is also
research integrity means whoever is the
author and if some consequences are
there all the authors should be
responsible for that right publication
ethics adhering to ethical guidelines
and standards when publishing research
this includes avoiding duplicate
publication properly acknowledging
funding sources disclosing any potential
conflict of interest so it should not be
like that whatever research work you
have published is already published
somewhere else or it is a part of your
already published work it should not be
like that and whatever funding you are
using and whatever
particular
potential conflicts of interest should
be there so you should have to maintain
all that stuff there right so
publication ethics should be there
and responsible data management handling
research data in a responsible manner
handling research data in responsible
manner including Proper Storage security
and retention data should be preserved
in enable verification in future use so
these are very important parts of
research Integrity guys so in scientific
conduct adhering to these principles
whatever we have discussed in
intellectual property right whatever we
have discussed in intellectual honesty
research integrity and ethics in science
and research
basically they promote trust reliability
and advancement of knowledge in
scientific community and researchers
have a responsibility to maintain the
highest standards of Ethics intellectual
honesty and research Integrity
throughout their scientific Endeavors
right it is going to create a very good
kind of scientific research now in next
lecture we are going to discuss about
scientific
misconducts right scientific misconducts
we are going to discuss so guys stay
tuned And subscribe this channel
definitely you are going to get a very
very important lectures and content in
future also so please subscribe stay
