Abstract

THE RESEARCH ARTICLES IN THE March 2007 issue of JERHRE explore two major topics: * Research methods wherein the investigator does not have unilateral control over the setting, as in ethnography and community-based participatory research, raise special problems of ethical oversight and problem solving. * Introducing new ethical oversight, whether developing an effective ethics committee in a developing country or implementing HIPAA requirements in human research, call for mindfulness of ethical objectives rather than simple rule following. JERHRE has an advantage in the ethics education arena. Lecturing about what should be done is an ineffective way to change people's hearts and minds, much less their behavior. In contrast, JERHRE provides concepts and methods that learners can use to discover for themselves what should be done. In the process, learners discover that what they should do is synonymous with what is in their best interests. Such is the persuasive power of evidence-based ethical problem solving.
