Week 4 Discussion

In  this week’s discussion we will take a look at the ethical  considerations involved in designing research in the criminal justice  field.  Please complete the following:

  • Initial post – Post a link or citation and a brief (250 words or  less) review of a criminal justice research study that had questionable  ethics. Discuss how the design proposes an ethical dilemma for the  researchers and identify which ethical standards they have violated.
  • Peer replies – After reviewing your classmates’ initial posts,  propose a solution to this research’s design that would meet current  ethical standards and how this change might have impacted the results of  the original study.
