Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Prisoners are vulnerable as research participants because their liberty is restricted in several ways. First, the voluntariness of consent may be compromised in prisons. Prisoners have severely curtailed freedom and choices. Second, privacy and confidentiality are compromised in prisons. If some information is disclosed, it may lead to embarrassment, stigmatization, retaliation, or additional punishment. (Lo, B 2009) In this light, being conscious and aware of ethical concerns in prison research becomes important. Additionally there are unforeseen challenges faced in prison research which when discussed can be foreseen research problems.
