Abstract
It frequently is assumed that research is being conducted in an ethical manner. Although this usually is the case, the approaches used to assure an ethical approach are not explicitly described in research proposals, protocols, presentations, or manuscripts. This paper explicates the ethical issues related to conducting clinical nursing research. Ethical principles and the problems of scientific misconduct are presented. Rights of human subjects and rights of special subjects are discussed, and practical points about the conduct of ethical research are summarized.
