Purpose Of Review:
To present some highlights and comments about ethical, legal and social issues related to alcohol and drug research.
Recent Findings:
Alcohol and drug research has a lack of scientific production related to ethical, legal and social issues. Many papers simply describe summarily the informed consent process and other related issues.
Summary:
Informed consent process is one of the most important issues in research ethics. Obtaining a valid consent from a prospective research participant is always a challenge. We present many different ways to reach ethical, legal and social adequacy related to the informed consent process.
