The aim of the present study is to conduct a phenomenological exploration of the experience of escaping research ethics in the social and behavioral sciences. This research was conducted with a qualitative approach using the phenomenological method. The research population consisted of postgraduate students with a PhD in the lived experience approach to research misconduct, 14 of whom were selected through purposive sampling with a combination of snowball and convenience techniques until theoretical saturation was reached. The data collection tool was a semi-structured and in-depth face-to-face interview. The multi-stage Claise method was used to analyze the data. The findings indicated that three main themes were extracted: avoidance of research ethics at the individual level (7 components), avoidance of research ethics at the university level (5 components), and avoidance of research ethics at the community level (6 components). Since instances of avoidance of ethical issues are not only manifested at the individual and university levels, but also at the community level, Therefore, in order to build a culture and expand ethical issues in the social and behavioral sciences, it is necessary for university educational and research stakeholders to have the necessary synergy in cooperation with major policymakers and all stakeholders at the community level. |
