Dear Student,
Hi and thank you for using Brainmass. The solution below should get you started. In this particular task you are being asked to reflect on ethics as it related to forming research questions. This is very specific and I think you should use a simple outline like this for a guide:
1. APA's ethical position (100 words).
2. Use in forming RQs & consequences - 150 words
3. Culture and Ethics - 100 words
This outline should yield around 350 words which should cover what you need. Just let me know via the feedback section if you need further clarification. You can also use the listed resources to further explore the topic. All the best with your studies.
Sincerely,
AE 105878/Xenia Jones
