Description

Social work as a profession is young and evolving. The impact of the other disciplines in its evolution is evident. Researchers, scholars and academicians have to adhere to ever-evolving norms laid down in the form of codes. Profession to stand on its own and create a mark must theorize, which is possible through quality research. A robust study is only feasible if the research is ethical. Numerous factors can impact an investigation if the researcher is ignorant of the fundamentals of ethics. The assignment attempts to cover the evolution of ethics in social work and aspects that a researcher needs to follow while working on research.
