公開セミナー「教育学研究における倫理問題 ～ユニバーサルな原則とローカルな実践」（Ethical issues in educational research: Universal principles, local practices）のお知らせ

研究における倫理規定の遵守は各国で広まっています。研究者はたいてい、大学の学内倫理規定に則ってフィールド調査を実施します。しかし、倫理に関する考え方は文 化により異なることが多く、ある国では適切な行為も別の国では不適切となりえます。そこで、研究者は倫理規定を調節し、適応させることが求められます。 今回の講演では、ニュージーランドの大学院で学ぶ博士課程の留学生が、海外でデータを収集したり、様々な国の参加者と関わりながら調査をしたりする際に直面する倫理に関する諸問題について考えます。
 Researchers in many countries are increasingly required to follow standardized procedures for the ethical conduct of a research projects involving other people. In applying for formal approval, they need to understand universal principles such as the prevention of harm to participants, ensuring their privacy and/or confidentiality, resolving potential conflicts of interest, etc. They are then expected to follow the procedural guidelines or regulations issued by their university when in the field. However, ethical practices are often culturally-specific: conduct considered appropriate in one context may be very different in another. This may require the researcher to modify, to a greater or lesser extent, the planned ethical procedures. Based on a series of case studies (soon to be published), this presentation considers some of the ethical dilemmas faced by international PhD students enrolled in a New Zealand university while collecting data in their home countries, or else with international participants in New Zealand. In particular, attention will be focused on their reflections after their fieldwork on some of the decision they made – often on the spur of the moment – as to whether they were ethically appropriate
