Often ethics are violated through encroachment, back biting, conspiracy to turn down and malign a real research. Did you face such experience?
I do have faith in the ethics of other researchers, and when I see errors in papers that I read or review, I will give the benefit of doubt that such errors were unintended. When authors admit their errors and are willing to make changes, I am certain that they are really ethical. But I have also experienced the negative atmosphere when others do not acknowledge the good work of other researchers. LET'S STICK TO THE GOLDEN RULE WHATEVER OTHERS MAY DO.
Yes, I have faith and follow research ethics.
Research ethics involves the application of fundamental ethical principles to a variety of topics involving research, including scientific research.
These include the design and implementation of research involving human experimentation, animal experimentation, various aspects of academic scandal, including scientific misconduct (such as fraud, fabrication of data and plagiarism), whistleblowing; regulation of research, etc.

I also have full faith in research ethics; and I follow myself and ask my all the students to follow research ethics. The teachers and researchers are the role models of society and they need to set examples in front of generations to come.
I strongly believe that TRUTH always wins (sooner or later); but, malpractices are always short lived.
Yes. I believe research is my own individual. My findings are my success, my proud, my pleasure. I believe the truth, genuine, and don't like to be a clone of other's research in to to. I know, I must find a new hidden secrecy in my research. The pleasure I get in my research is my only and solely my asset and ethics. But I know some black guys those who just copy and paste and put fake data and thus make a fake article; whereas they don't know the a b c of the research and the contents of the article they publish.
Anyhow, once they will be unveiled.
In my experience, science that is published tends to have been guided by ethical principles. I have also noticed that most scientists I have met tend to be very committed to their profession. As such, these professionals not only practice ethical principles because they have to, they believe in them and embrace them.
In this internet world- better follow ethics- things get filtered fast- work gets cited more if good quality work is reported

Science does not have anything to say about the policy implications of global warming. Science, by itself, has no values or morals. While some scientists, and even scientific organizations, have their own opinions about what should be done about the global warming issue, policy changes can be instituted responsibly only by examining the human costs and benefits of those changes. The difficulty in “doing something” about global
warming is the inescapable fact that the availability of reliable, inexpensive energy is necessary for economic growth, human health and well-being. Historically, those countries that build wealth through efficient use of natural resources have the lowest levels of pollution, while the poorest countries have the worst environmental problems

Of course.. Without some ethical practices, we can not survive in the scientific community. We must follow the rules and practices. There are so many reasons to adhere to ethical norms in scientific research (not only in scientific research, but also in all types of research). Most importantly, norms promote the aims of research and prohibitions against fabricating, These norms promote certain moral and social values related to individual as well as collaborative works and assure the accountability to the public. So as a researcher we should have the faith in scientific ethics and practices.
Yes I do Have and believe that others too have faith in Research ethics for global better society. Thanks
I have faith in scientific ethics. If you believe in god, science is god for a researcher. What Miranda Yeoh said is absolutely correct.
I think most of the researchers have ethics and show ethical behaviour when ever it´s possible. But there are some scientists who don´t obey these rules because of suggested personal advantage, which not always is a real benefit. If they are discovered, the consequences can be destroying for their career.
I have little faith! The world of 'scientific' research today is bombarded with unethical practices of elusive forms and types. They are too subtle that it's often impossible to say which is which!
Unfortunately almost everyday... :(
At least my "faith in scientific ethics" is strong, what is almost gone is my faith in human kind!
Bacteria are more loyal!
Dear Abhijit.
What a lovely question !
Thank you. Yes we should and we must keep our faith in ethics, Whatever the turn of the World, they will permit Societies to endure and survive.
Dear Ramona, of course bacteria are more loyal. But we must keep our faith. That's what we've got and that is what will keep us going. Let's keep our own ethics, independently of the behaviour of others.
I have faith in the future, and in the future of Science and Culture.
The true practice of the faith is loving to God and the neighboors. The faith in the science as mean, method or instrument results very little.
Yes, Mariano.
Our true faith in God also moves us towards a better respect of Ethics, and to have respect for Science and hope for a better future.
Dear Abhijit,
Very good question. Violation of scientific ethics is not a new phenomenon in my opinion. In general, philosophically, when there is ethics, there is violation. Same is applicable to scientific ethics and its related violation too.
Having said the above, violation and its related victory is not permanent in nature and mostly they are temporary. One who did the real research and hard work knows, what it is, no matter what, whether it is recognised or not.
Best Regards.

A science ethics code is also about values held by researchers while doing science; it is an achievement that contributes heavily to the value system of scientific achievements. It warns us of the requirement that scientific goals should target commonly held values and interests rather than mere competition. It makes it clear that the needs of scientific advancement must not harm the ideal of a moral knowledge. It stresses that only ethical science can base and shape the improvement of public life by representing public interests and undertaking the future in a responsible way

mostly yes , but I face it by patience and tolerance in order to let the wheel in moving.

If the nuclear scientist is not honest and unethical, that can be very disastrous to the humanity!
Any kind of human task, taken with dishonesty, can be disastrous. Building engineers and architects can ruin the lives of many, if they use the wrong project or bad materials, even a cook can kill many for fraudulent use of contaminated edible goods, and so on...
I belong to a generation in which the medication Thalidomid was sold to reduce childbirth delivery pains, in Portugal, even after the side effects were widely known, and many thousands of children were born with terrible body defects. I have a good friend of my age who was born with no arms.
Education and ethics should apply to ever human task.
Yes, dear Roland!!!
I'm eager to tell you my view on the ethics of artists!!!
(I'll have to take a better look at Frieda Kahlo's biography, first...)
Why must scientists become more ethically sensitive than they used to be?
Ethics is not just an abstract intellectual discipline. It is about the conflicts that arise in trying to meet real human needs and values.
For this, see link!

Yes Subhash, scientists must be more sensitive to ethics, because at times things aren't clearly black or white. We have difficulty trying to make out the significance of various shades of grey. But we must have faith, in our own ethics, in our own work, and the work and worth of fellow scientists.
