{"title":"Editorial: Should the NASW Code of Ethics require Institutional Review Board (IRB) review of all social work research in the USA?","authors":"Stephen M.

As a professor emeritus with over 40 years of research experience, the acronym IRB is commonplace jargon for me. In fact, there have been many times when I temporarily forgot what the letters represent. This commonly happens when a clinical social worker who is not involved in research asks, “What does IRB stand for?” My immediate reaction is to explain what an IRB does rather than clarifying the acronym. I continue to forget the R stands for “Review” and not “Research.” Thus, IRB stands for “Institutional Review Board.” The acronym has become a household term among researchers. It is not surprising that a person can forget what it stands for, but not forget what it does. I know the history: Congress passed the \"National Research Service Award Act of 1974\" [Public Law 93-348, 93 Congress. 88 Stat. 342 (1974)]. Essentially, the law states, as ambiguously as humanly possible, that if an institution is engaged in human subject research and that research is conducted or supported by a federal agency, then an IRB review is required. For organizations that receive federal funding (i.e., Medicare) for non-research purposes, then an IRB is not required. The question becomes, “What was the catalyst for this Congressional action?”","PeriodicalId":88920,"journal":{"name":"Journal of social work values and ethics","volume":"85 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72910722","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}

The researchers used an interpretive approach to analyze the interviews and identify common themes in their experiences. Participants identified 5 key aspects of the investigation process: due process, respect, investigator neutrality, investigator qualifications, and contextual factors. They also described their views on the value of having effective legal representation. This article concludes with recommendations for improving licensing board investigation processes.","PeriodicalId":88920,"journal":{"name":"Journal of social work values and ethics","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80285528","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}
