心理諮商研究倫理守則建置之意見調查研究

Normal University%2C Taipei%2C Taiwan%2C R.O.C. A Survey of Counseling Research Ethics Code Building

本研究目的在收集在地性的資料以推動心理諮商研究倫理守則的建置。研究方法上，先透過文獻探討與焦點團體訪談11位心理諮商研究人員，以收集心理諮商研究倫理守則之相關資訊，並參考10位專家的修正意見以編製「心理諮商研究倫理守則之必要性與執行經驗問卷」。接著，研究者對102名大專院校心理諮商相關科系教師進行問卷調查。研究資料以描述統計、t考驗、ANOVA進行分析，並輔以參與者的意見以完成本研究結果。研究發現：多數參與者對於建置研究倫理守則持正向肯定的態度；在題項納入守則必要性方面，參與者對機構核准、知後同意、實驗處理的部份題項態度較為保守；執行困難度方面，在機構核准、實驗處理的部份題項上，近20%的參與者感到有執行上的困難；背景變項分析方面，教過研究法與倫理課程者較易感到執行困難。顯示參與者雖支持研究倫理守則的建立，但設計守則時亦須考量執行的可行度。本研究建議訂定研究倫理守則以精簡、易懂為原則，並有必要向研究人員推廣研究倫理審查委員會設置之理念與說明運作方式，以減少研究人員的疑慮，而能同時兼顧研究發展與保障參與者福祉的目的。

This study aims to establish the counseling research ethics and to explore the present situations of counseling research ethics in Taiwan. The research questionnaire was developed through literature reviews， a focus group of 11 counseling researchers， and a validation session with 10 college instructors who have taught at least one course in research methods or ethics. 102 college instructors in the counseling field completed the questionnaire. Descriptive statistics， t tests， and ANOVA were applied to examine the data. In addition， the opinions of participants were collected. The results showed that most participants held positive attitudes toward establishing research ethics codes. However， nearly 20% participants reported having difficulties following some of the research ethics guidelines， especially those regarding institutional approvals of research proposals and the procedural requirements of conducting experiments. Participants who had taught courses in both research methods and ethics reported more difficulties with implementation. The present study showed that even with strong support for having research ethics， some counseling researchers expressed hesitations and concerns about the ethics implementation regarding proposal approvals and requirements. This study highlights the importance of having easy-to-follow ethical requirements and procedures so that the ethics in counseling research are enhancement rather than become barriers that bring further complication. This study also suggests efforts to diminish researchers’ hesitations.
