Beneficence is a concept in research ethics that states that researchers should have the welfare of the research participant as a goal of any clinical trial or other research study. The antonym of this term, maleficence , describes a practice that opposes the welfare of any research participant.
The concrete impact of codes of conduct and other measures put in place to ensure research integrity remain uncertain.

Returning combat medics sometimes bear the guilt of failing to save someone badly wounded; veterans tell of the sense of betrayal when a buddy is hurt because of a poor decision made by those in charge.
With these two ideas in mind, researchers decided to do their experiments based on moral dilemmas that both men and women face regularly.

Moral injuries aren’t always evident.
