In this manner, peer review can contribute to the quality and integrity of published research. Once a hypothesis or theory becomes well established, it may be said to be a “fact,” and it is no longer subjected to rigorous tests. For example, the idea that the sun is the center of the solar system is now accepted as a fact, but it was a hypothesis during the time of Copernicus (1542 [1995]).
However, because the ethical principles and rules of scientific research are based, in part, on what constitutes good science, they are also based, at least in part, on empirical evidence. Observations we make about what promotes good scientific practice can be relevant to justifying ethical rules and principles for science. ” This rule can be justified, in part, by determining whether it promotes good scientific practice. If we observe that scientists who follow the rule are more successful in contributing to new knowledge than those who do not, this would count as evidence in favor of the rule.
For example, a scientist who exaggerates when reporting his results would be acting unethically, but an artist who loves a certain painting who exaggerates when talking about it might be acting ethically. Scientists are expected to be more honest than the art lover. In making ethical judgments concerning a particular profession, such as science, we must consider (a) the goals or objectives of the profession, (b) interactions among members of the profession, and (c) interactions between members of the profession and society.
