Section One: Ethical Issues in Research

CASE STUDY: Crashing into Law

Sven prints out the requested damage predictions and Dr. Oleson uses the data to write his opinion.

It is ethically required that the written statement that Dr. Oleson signs adequately reflects his true beliefs about the work. If Dr. Oleson's uncertainty is uncovered during cross examination in the process of the trial, the case will be harmed, as will Dr. Oleson's reputation.
