Ethics: 10 questionable practices
Involving persons without their consent Coercing participants Withholding information Deceiving Inducing them to acts that diminish their self-esteem Exposing them to mental or physical stress Invading privacy Discrimination Withholding benefits (with control groups) Do any of these practices apply to the experiments we watched?

Ethics: children as participants
Researchers should not learn about ethics in practice but well beforehand Children are vulnerable and can be easily exposed to risks ACTIVITY from 28:53 min where the children experiment starts
6
Ethics: children as participants
INFORMED CONSENT: Participants give their consent signed. Can children give their consent on their own? The Informed Consent should include: -research purpose -why they have been asked to participate -what is their involvement -what they will do and for how long -that they will be informed about the research before, during and after -that all names and places will not be revealed -that they can withdraw at any time from 28:53 min where the children experiment starts

Ethics: children as participants
INFORMED CONSENT: -How the data will be recorded -Where they will be stored -Who will see the data from 28:53 min where the children experiment starts

Research ethics “Research ethics exist to ensure that the principles of justice, respect and avoiding doing harm are upheld, by using agreed standards”. (Morrow, 2009, p.1)

Ethics What other things do you need to consider? – trainer questioning trainee / sharing / if parent / child gives consent / is action research ethical? Validity / Reliability / Trinagulation

Pilot Study Research questions – think about the language used
Small scale, short term, action research with the possibility of longitudinal study Be aware of positionality & blind spots Conferences Anonymity / Confidentiality / Maintaining Boundaries What are your areas of interest?

How to write your literature review…
12
Your literature review is a journey that you are taking the reader on, and looks like an upside down pyramid… This is your broad area of interest – whatever that may be, let’s say mental health… This is getting closer to your specific topic of research – let’s say mental health support for those with depression… This is where you hold my hand and I am thinking to myself “Wow, but my question is – what about mental health support for those with depression in a small coastal region?…” and then BAM you hit me with exactly the same question that I was thinking of as your research question!
