Introduction to Sociology/Sociological Methods

This chapter is basically about Ethical considerations. Ethical considerations are of particular importance to sociologists. Because subject is related to living existence. Sociologists are very strict to ethical guidelines. The fact -'participants in sociological investigation are not caused injury'- is most important ethical consideration of sociological research. There are several universally recognized considerations from many studies. However, the fact is not always strictly also have professional ethical principles they follow. Obviously honesty in research, analysis, and publication is important. A comprehensive explanation of sociological guidelines is provided on the website of the American Sociological Association.

I think sociologists should keep the researches ethics. Because the research is influences to society.
