Panel Presentation:
Ethical Dimensions of Citizen Science Research
There are many ethical dimensions to research that involves collaboration between scientists and the volunteers, and only a portion of which is covered by IRB oversight. Citizen science projects are designed in many ways which may heighten or lessen particular ethical concerns. In this symposium, the first six speakers will share stories (not academic talks) that highlight different ethical dimensions for research carried out utilizing methods of citizen science. Topics covered include (1) Data privacy and confidentiality (Shanley), (2) Participation vs exploitation in community-based research context and in the context of gamification and persuasive computing (Bowser), (3) Participant safety and liability (Menninger), (4) Ownership and intellectual property (Katti), (5) Transparency, openness, and data sharing (Lang), and (6) suitability and shortcomings of disciplinary-specific codes of ethics and of traditional ethical review and oversight (Stemwedel). The seventh speaker (Quigley), will summarize key principles and provide practical advice for practitioners, covering beneficence and maleficence, community informed consent, fair recruitment, and cultural competence. The last portion of the symposium will involve a moderated panel discussion with the audience.
The object of the symposium is to generate discussion around challenging ethical dimensions of citizen science research. Anyone involved in citizen science, in any way, will find these ethical issues of high relevance. The formation of the Citizen Science Association provides potential capacity for the community to address these ethical issues.
