This week we address the ethics of qualitative research, particularly the call to do no harm. Be sure to be specific and illustrate your points with concrete examples. Based on your learning this week in the readings and the content, address the following questions:
- What do you see as the primary ethical concerns associated with qualitative methodologies?
- How does the ethics code you ascribe to (APA, ACA, or some other) confront these concerns?
- Finally, if you were recruited for a qualitative study, what would need to be in place for you to feel comfortable consenting to your participation?
