This short film describes the three basic ethical principles that underlie research involving human subjects: respect for persons, beneficience, and justice. The film illustrates their application in case studies of biomedical and behavioral research; it also shows the principles at work in the resolution of ethical conflicts. These guiding principles are intended to protect research subjects, even as medicine and research continue to change over time.
