Resolving ethical challenges in youth research
Editors: Dr Kitty te Riele (UTS, Australia) & Prof Rachel Brooks (Brunel University, UK)
Research, like everyday life, often generates ethical dilemmas in which it may be impossible to find agreement on what is right or wrong. The ethical conduct of research always requires deliberation on values and principles, exercise of judgment, and an appreciation of context. Youth research presents specific ethical challenges that can’t always be appropriately dealt with through standard ethical procedures for researching adults or younger children.
This edited collection will be organised around resolving ethical challenges faced by scholars doing research with youth. It will not be a textbook but rather provide analyses of real ethical challenges that are of particular relevance to youth researchers. We define young people as aged 12-25.
