3. If you were part of the research teams who conducted the research studies, what will you do correct the
unethical aspect of the experiment?

If I were part of the research teams who conducted the research studies, I will gather evidence , data or some
information to prove my own theory, second, I’ll help my research team to correct their wrong features of the
experiment and lastly, research any topics that is connected to such phenomena and tell it to other researcher and
I told them that they are wrong by giving an example, codes of conduct, plagiarism of words.

Task 3: Correct Me If I’m Wrong

1. Competence

2. Non discrimination

3. Plagiarism

4. Human subject protection

5. Objectivity
 Reason for Committing Research Misconduct
Using inappropriate research methods
Experimental, analytical, computational error
Violation of test subject protocols
Poor research design
Ways on How to Prevent It
Ask proper channels or expert before initiating the research
methods
Systematic error can be located and minimized with careful
analysis and design of the test conditions and procedure by
comparing your results to other results.
Ensure that a proposed protocols meets the appropriate
ethical guidelines before the test subjects may be enrolled
in the study.
Your paper should outline and openly define the problem
and state what you intend to investigate to determine what
research design you will use
