Which one of the following belongs to the category of good ‘research ethics’ ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Acknowledging the earlier work of others in the literature review gives proper credit and lets readers trace the field, which is a basic ethical requirement. The other three options describe duplicate publication, data manipulation and gift authorship, all of which are misconduct. Hence the correct answer is 'Conducting a review of the literature that acknowledges the contributions of other people in the relevant field or relevant prior work'.
