for Behavioural and Social Sciences
Tweet
Location: Graduate Student Centre, 6371 Crescent Road, Point Grey Campus
Offered by: Graduate Pathways to Success and the UBC Office of Research Ethics
Date: Thursday, December 6, 2012 -9:00am -12:00pm
This workshop, which is jointly offered by GPS and the Office of Research Ethics
(ORE), is designed to introduce graduate students to the ethical issues surrounding
social science and behavioural research involving human participants. Through an
overview of the evolution of international and national ethics codes and guidelines,
ethical principles and hands-on case studies, participants will have the opportunity to
discuss the distinctive ethical issues raised by social science and behavioural
research and how to navigate them.
For graduate students planning to submit an application to the Behavioural Research
Ethics Board (BREB) this session will also cover UBC policies and processes relating
to behavioural human research ethics and what the BREB looks for when reviewing
applications. It will provide helpful advice concerning some of the typical errors made
by graduate students on their ethics applications and how to avoid them.
Who should attend? Graduate students interested in reflecting on the ethical issues
surrounding social science and behavioural research as well as those in the process
of developing a research proposal who are preparing to submit an ethics application
in the next year. The session may be of particular interest to students who have
started (or completed) data collection and would like a forum to reflect on the ethical
issues raised in their research.
Presenter: Dr. Kirsten Bell, a part-time Research Ethics Analyst in the UBC Office
of Research Ethics and a Research Associate in the Department of Anthropology. Dr.
Bell’s research interests include medical anthropology and sociology, anthropology of
biomedicine, cancer, tobacco, addiction, gender and new religious movements. She
is the Principal Investigator of a SSHRC-funded project: Between Life and Death: the
Cultural Contradictions of Cancer Survivorship.
