论儿童研究中的道德问题

儿童研究不是一个纯粹的方法或技术应用问题,它同时是一个非常重要的伦理问题。特别是以身心发展水平较低的年幼儿童为对象的研究,因其对象的特殊性会面临更复杂的道德问题。本文结合国内外有关研究,在解析儿童研究中的道德内涵的基础上,试图建构儿童研究中应遵循的道德规范,同时对研究者在研究中如何保持良好的道德风范作了初步探讨。

On Ethics in the Study of Children

Study of children is not a pure application problem of method or techniques, but a very important ethic issue and it is especially so in the case of study of young children with lower physical and mental development level. Based on an analysis of ethics in children study, the paper attempts to construct an ethic model in children study and to make a tentative discussion on researcher's maintenance of a good morality in his research.
