Imagine being told that you are receiving treatment for an illness when in actuality the scientists are studying how the disease spreads and kills. This was a reality for 400 black men from Macon County Alabama. This is one example of why it is imperative to have Institutional Review Boards (IRBs). There is a need for regulating studies because causing damage to people not worth the possible benefits of a study. Researchers should only have freedom if their experiment is if there the harm is as…

Part of the issues, regarding marginalization (e.g., Eells, 1933; Pasamanick & Knobloch, 1955) stem from the non-ascription of any indicative conflicts between ethics and law – during those times. It was not until 1959, where a legitimate code (e.g., Principle 3: Moral and Legal Standards) was predominantly attributing a form of responsibility between the psychologist and the client/student/colleagues (American Psychological Association [PDF file], n.d.). Insofar, it was not until 1974, where…

Ethics protocols are designed to protect groups from the potential harm and risks posed to them through the research process. Boards, like the Institutional Review Board (IRB), put in place a set of criteria to ensure the protection of people participating in research, particularly those from vulnerable groups. However, where lies the balance between conducting unbiased enlightening research and protecting the dependent? Describing a group as vulnerable is not a given, but rather, is up for…

resulting in death to the rejection of a three-year long study due to a minor discrepancy; where is the line drawn between ethical and unethical conduct? Both the IRB (Institutional Review Boards) and REB (Research Ethics Boards) have done well to establish a set of common guidelines when it comes to conducting research; however, these agencies hold a surplus of power and lack a sense of researcher to agency equality within the system’s process. While these two agencies have established a strong…

All colleges in the United States who offer doctorate degrees have an Institutional Review Board (IRB). The purpose of this protocol is for the protection of human subjects used in research studies. During the dissertation process, the third milestone is the IRB application and approval process. Once the Dissertation Proposal is approved, the doctoral candidate must submit the IRB application for approval from the IRB. Because data collection requires the approval from the IRB, the doctoral…

Institutional Review Boards (IRB) are set in place to help regulate anthropological research as a way to protect the cultures and lives of the people that are the subjects. The intentions of these boards are set in place for a great reason. The issue lies in how the IRB’s have the ability to inhibit in depth research or even renders research already completed to be completely useless if it is deemed unethical or unauthorized. Institutional Review Boards often impede on the freedom of…

In this Journal I am going to be reflecting about the competency 4: Engage in practice-informed research and research-informed practice. I will be describing from my understanding the value of a literature review and engaging in research change during the BSW program, how learning to search for data, read and use peer review articles had been for me throughout the process and finally what could I improve in order to inform the agency where in interning at Girls in the Game. During my BSW…

The original Zoolander was released many years ago in 2001. But the movies seems to never go out of style. Ben Stiller's satire continues to be a fan favorite (even though Zoolander 2 slightly jeopardized the brand). As many times as you've watched those epic moments and interactions between Derek and Hansel, there are still many facts you don't know about "Zoolander." So put on that Blue Steel and read on the first part of "15 things you didn't know about Zoolander." Number 1: Derek Zoolander …
