Ethics in Research01:56

Ethics in Research

22.9K
Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.

Naturalistic Observations

15.4K
If you want to understand how behavior occurs, one of the best ways to gain information is to simply observe the behavior in its natural context. However, people might change their behavior in unexpected ways if they know they are being observed. How do researchers obtain accurate information when people tend to hide their natural behavior? As an example, imagine that your professor asks everyone in your class to raise their hand if they always wash their hands after using the restroom. Chances...

Criticisms of the Evolutionary Perspective

91
In a study where individuals posing as strangers offered compliments and proposed casual sex to students, the responses differed significantly based on gender. Not a single woman accepted the proposal, while 70% of the men agreed. This outcome provides a useful scenario to explore through the lens of evolutionary psychology and social learning theory, highlighting the diverse perspectives on human sexual behaviors.
Evolutionary psychology provides one explanation for these findings, suggesting...

Humanistic Psychology

1.0K
Humanistic psychology emerged in the mid-20th century as a response to the deterministic and pessimistic nature of behaviorism and psychoanalysis. While behaviorism focused on observable behaviors influenced by the environment and psychoanalysis delved into unconscious motivations, both theories suggested that human actions lacked free will. In contrast, humanistic psychology offers a perspective that emphasizes the innate potential for goodness and growth within every individual.
This approach...

Evolutionary Psychology

251
Evolutionary psychology explores the origins of human behavior and mental processes by framing them within the context of natural selection, a theory famously propounded by Charles Darwin. This field asserts that many behaviors common across human societies — ranging from instinctive fear reactions to complex social interactions — arose as evolutionary adaptations. These adaptations enhanced the survival and reproductive success of our ancestors, thereby becoming embedded in the...

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Health Sciences
  • Toxicology
  • Comparative Medicine

Background:

  • The Exposome encompasses physiological and pathological changes from environmental exposures.
  • Rising environmental pollution correlates with increased disease prevalence, affecting vulnerable populations.
  • Urgent need exists for Exposome research and health interventions against pollution.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current Exposome research challenges, focusing on toxic ultrafine nanoparticles.
  • To evaluate various research models for Exposome studies.
  • To highlight the advantages of non-human primates in Exposome research.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing Exposome research models.
  • Analysis of rodent models' limitations in mimicking human phenotypes.
  • Prospecting non-human primate models for Exposome research.

Main Results:

  • Rodent models have limitations in replicating human physiopathological responses to environmental factors.
  • Non-human primates exhibit evolutionary, anatomical, and physiological similarities to humans, making them valuable models.
  • The Non-Human Primate Exposome (NHPE) project is initiated to advance Exposome research.

Conclusions:

  • Non-human primate models are essential for accurate human Exposome research.
  • The NHPE project will leverage non-human primates to investigate environmental health impacts.
  • Further research using non-human primates is crucial for developing effective health interventions.
