Opinions are frequently characterised by insufficient substantiation and communicative opacity, eroding researcher trust and institutional legitimacy. This study provides an integrated framework for the production of quality ethical opinions. A narrative review was conducted through searches in PubMed, SCOPUS, and Web of Science, supplemented by normative documents from the WHO, Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences, and World Medical Association. Opinion quality depends on three interdependent dimensions: normative grounding in foundational principles, deliberative integrity in collective processes, and communicative responsibility in documented reasoning. The most frequent deficiencies concern informed consent and risk-benefit analysis. Structured discretionary judgement proves superior to algorithmic standardisation. This work is original in integrating Habermasian communicative rationality with the Aristotelian concept of phronesis to propose a tripartite framework that transcends compliance-based approaches.","PeriodicalId":520668,"journal":{"name":"Journal of empirical research on human research ethics : JERHRE","volume":" ","pages":"305-318"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13554353/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148152756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bayesian decision analysis confirms current statistical thresholds are substantially more conservative than optimal for fatal diseases. COVID-19 pandemic responses proved that regulatory timelines can be dramatically compressed through organizational innovation, including accelerated vaccine development and distributed open-source manufacturing, without sacrificing safety.ConclusionsA five-part framework can enable patient autonomy in research ethics while preserving robust safeguards against exploitation: tiered consent based on disease severity, adaptive trial designs with patient governance, mandatory open-source transparency, post-market surveillance, and independent safety monitoring with patient representation.","PeriodicalId":520668,"journal":{"name":"Journal of empirical research on human research ethics : JERHRE","volume":" ","pages":"395-400"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13554351/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148020493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a mixed-methods approach, this study examined reactions to trauma-related research and motivations for future participation among Korean college students. Participants (N = 138) completed measures of trauma exposure, PTSD symptoms, perceived understanding of informed consent, and reactions to research participation. Quantitative analyses indicated that greater perceived understanding was associated with higher willingness to participate, fewer perceived drawbacks, and more favorable global evaluations. Elevated PTSD symptoms were associated with stronger emotional reactions and greater perceived drawbacks. Participants without elevated PTSD symptoms also reported more favorable benefit-to-emotional-reaction evaluations. Qualitative content analysis of open-ended responses revealed that motivations for future participation differed by PTSD symptom status, with non-elevated participants emphasizing the value of trauma research and elevated participants highlighting self-understanding and trauma reappraisal. Overall, findings highlight importance of incorporating participant perspectives to support ethical and inclusive trauma research.","PeriodicalId":520668,"journal":{"name":"Journal of empirical research on human research ethics : JERHRE","volume":" ","pages":"319-329"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148045391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study employed Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) to systematically evaluate both the content and formats of research ethics training, aiming to identify key gaps and priorities for curricular improvement.Participants and methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted from July 22 to August 4, 2024 among 625 medical students in Taizhou, Zhejiang.ResultsThe majority of respondents (89.0%) expressed willingness to engage in research ethics training. IPA revealed that six of the seven research ethics content themes fell into the \"Concentrate Here\" quadrant, indicating high importance but low performance. Ethical review processes showed the largest gap between importance and perceived performance. In terms of format, training during internships was considered the most important and effective approach.ConclusionCurrent research ethics education emphasizes theory over practical competence. Training should be redesigned to focus on ethical review processes and integrate internship-based, hands-on learning.","PeriodicalId":520668,"journal":{"name":"Journal of empirical research on human research ethics : JERHRE","volume":" ","pages":"352-364"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147625424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While many institutions provide formal education in research ethics and grant writing, major gaps persist in mentoring, grant implementation, and project management. R1/R2 faculty reported the greatest institutional support, yet disparities remain across research integrity areas, including human and animal subject protocols. Students were generally satisfied with training but showed limited awareness of RECR foundations, such as data lifecycle management and export compliance. Findings underscore the need for more consistent, comprehensive research training-especially at PUIs.","PeriodicalId":520668,"journal":{"name":"Journal of empirical research on human research ethics : JERHRE","volume":" ","pages":"384-394"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147937145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
