A researcher is applying for renewal of a large federal grant, without which his very promising research on panic disorder cannot continue. He is completing renewal forms, which include a synopsis of his results to date.
 
  If he excludes two of the subjects with very severe panic disorder, and three with mental health disorders of another kind, the results are statistically significant. He writes the report and does not mention the five subjects he excluded. This is an instance of which of the following?
  a. Beneficence
  b. Fabrication
  c. Falsification
  d. Plagiarism

Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Fabrication in research is the making up of results and recording or reporting them. Falsification of research is manipulating research materials, equipment, or processes, or changing or omitting data or results such that the research is not accurately represented in the research record. Plagiarism is the appropriation of another person's ideas, processes, results, or words without giving appropriate credit, including those obtained through confidential review of others' research proposals and manuscripts. The principle of beneficence requires the researcher to do good and above all, do no harm.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Universities and healthcare agencies have IRBs that function in a similar way to review research following federal regulations. If both a university and a hospital, or if more than one hospital, should be involved in a research study, both IRBs must give permission for the study to be conducted. This poses significant expenditure of time for such research.
