Éthique De La Recherche

Four years ago [Institution Name] University launched an online tutorial called CHRPP, the Course in Human Research Participant Protection, and published a paper based about its purpose, design, and usability in (Authors, 2009). CHRPP was originally created to raise awareness among research students about the federal policy regarding research ethics and to encourage ethical research practices. Self-assessments and interactive activities were built into the tutorial to help achieve our goals. Since the first publication CHRPP has been updated based on user feedback from a user satisfaction survey. The generally positive reception of this innovative tutorial led to it serving as the basis of a new national research ethics tutorial hosted by the Government of Canada’s Panel on Research Ethics. This paper summarizes the evolution of CHRPP from a homegrown solution for [Institution Name] University to an essential piece of Canada’s national research ethics education program. En 2008, l’Université Queen’s a lancé un tutoriel en ligne nommé CHRPP (Course in Human Research Participant Protection, cours sur la protection des participants humains à la recherche) et publié un article sur son objectif, sa conception et sa convivialité dans Balkwill, Stevenson, Stockley et Marlin (2009). Le CHRPP a été créé pour sensibiliser les étudiants qui font de la recherche sur la politique fédérale relative à l’éthique de recherche et pour favoriser les pratiques éthiques de recherche. Des autoévaluations et des activités interactives ont été intégrées au tutoriel pour nous aider à atteindre nos objectifs. Depuis sa première publication, le CHRPP a été mis à jour en se basant sur la rétroaction tirée d’une enquête sur la satisfaction des utilisateurs. La réception généralement positive qu’a reçue ce tutoriel innovateur lui a valu de servir de base pour un nouveau tutoriel national en éthique de la recherche qu’héberge le Groupe consultatif en éthique de la recherche du gouvernement du Canada. Cet article résume l’évolution du CHRPP qui, d’une solution maison pour un établissement est devenu une partie essentielle du programme national canadien d’éducation en éthique de la recherche.

Background: Research participant remuneration has been variable and inconsistent world-wide for many years owing to uncertainty regarding best practice and a lack of written guidelines for investigators and research ethics committees.  Recent recommendations are that researchers and regulators should develop regionally appropriate written guidelines to define reasonable remuneration based on expense reimbursement, compensation for time and burden associated with participation.   Incentives to motivate participation are acceptable in specific circumstances. Methods: We wished to develop regionally informed, precise and applicable guidelines in Malawi that might also be generally useful for African researchers and review committees.  We therefore reviewed the current literature and developed widely applicable and specific remuneration tables using acceptable and evidence-based payment rationales. Results: There were good international guidelines and limited published regional guidelines.  There were published examples of best practice and sufficient material to suggest a structured remuneration table.  The rationale and method for the table were discussed at an inter-disciplinary workshop resulting in a reimbursement and compensation model with fixed rates.  Payment is recommended pro rata and equally across a study. Conclusions: Transparent, fair remuneration of research participants is recommended by researchers and regulators in Malawi.  The means to achieve this are now presented in the Malawi research participant remuneration table.

Purpose A government website is considered as an electronic government service delivery system (eGSDS). The authors look at this eGSDS from its process point of view. This study aims to expand the existing knowledge of e-government adoption, and to identify the significance of eGSDS process to user satisfaction. Design/methodology/approach This study uses a quantitative technique using data collected from 197 respondents. Structure equation modeling has been used to test the model and the proposed hypotheses. Findings The findings indicate that as the eGSDS process improves, a user’s perception of the government website’s ease of use increases, leading to increased perceived usefulness, which increases user satisfaction. The findings also indicate that eGSDS process has a significant impact on perceived usefulness and user satisfaction. This study provides evidence that the technological capabilities embedded in the government website processes are an important factor in determining e-government service quality and ultimately e-government user satisfaction. Research limitations/implications The sample used was sufficient for this study and allowed reasonable conclusions to be drawn, but cannot be considered representative of all e-government users in India. Further research may help to validate the findings and generalize the results to a wider population. This study extends the current literature that looks at e-government adoption. Academicians and information systems researchers may use these findings for further research. Practical implications The research provides evidence that the technological capabilities embedded in the eGSDS process are critical in adopting e-government services. Government or concerned agencies may consider eGSDS process attributes (e.g. navigation, searching and transacting) while designing e-government service to give improved experience to its user. Originality/value E-government websites have become an important point of contact with citizens for many public services. However, more study is needed to understand how Web-based technological capabilities of e-government services affect user satisfaction. This study is an attempt to explore the impact of the eGSDS process on e-government user satisfaction.

This research examines the maintenance practice of hospital buildings in Malaysia. Recently, the increment of hospital buildings’ accidents has affected its performances as a result of determinants. However, the maintenance practice employed in the hospitals has a direct impact on the performance of hospital buildings. The fast-growing population of Malaysia necessitates proactiveness on the part of the government regarding the provision of efficient healthcare and ensuring the wellbeing of the citizenry. In this regard, the state of hospital buildings is inextricably linked to quality healthcare. This study evaluates the determinants that impair the quality of hospital buildings in Malaysia in order to improve their efficiency and preempt the avoidable building pitfalls through effective maintenance management. The survey questionnaire was used in order to achieve the objective of this study to users of hospital buildings, the outcomes sought after concerned building component issues such as finishes, cleanliness, aesthetics, ventilation and other determinants that affected the performance of the hospital buildings. The results showed that specific determinants including lighting, ventilation, fire alarms, fire extinguisher signage, floor conditions, lifts and quality of air depreciate the performance of hospital buildings. In addition, the procurement methods of maintenance work are completely outsourcing in hospitals and combinations of outsourcing and in-source methods in a private hospital. Moreover, the study found that the current methods of maintenance management adopted for hospital buildings remain typically corrective. This has always resulted in deprived user satisfaction, unproductive service delivery, and the prolongation of diverse maintenance problems.
