Ethical Clearance

Jetrin: Journal of Research Trends in Education requires that all research involving human participants, animals, or sensitive data adheres to ethical standards and guidelines. Authors must obtain ethical clearance from relevant institutional review boards or ethics committees prior to conducting their research.

The ethical clearance should address the following aspects:

  1. Informed Consent: Authors must ensure that participants provide informed consent before participating in the research. This includes a clear explanation of the study’s purpose, procedures, potential risks, and benefits. Participants should have the right to withdraw from the study at any time without any consequences.

  2. Confidentiality and Anonymity: Authors are responsible for protecting the confidentiality and anonymity of participants. Any identifiable information should be removed or anonymized in the publication to prevent the identification of individuals involved in the research.

  3. Animal Welfare: Research involving animals must comply with ethical standards related to the care and use of animals in research. Authors should provide justification for the use of animals and ensure that procedures are designed to minimize suffering.

  4. Data Management: Authors must outline how data will be collected, stored, and shared, ensuring compliance with relevant laws and regulations concerning data protection and privacy.
