Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

A conflict of interest exists in research when a researcher's primary interest in the integrity of a study is compromised by a secondary interest such as personal gain (e.g., financial profit). Many ethical principles such as those relating to conflict of interest and research misconduct help ensure that researchers who are funded by public money can be held accountable to the public. In other words, funders can be assured that all research they fund adheres to a common set of ethical precepts relating to quality and integrity. Ensuring that all projects abide by these principles also levels the playing field among different researchers. This helps to build broad public support for research in general.
