Ethics in Cross Cultural Research Paper

• Consider the following: Professor Plum wants to investigate cross-cultural
  differences in attitudes towards different foods. He is very interested
  in nation “X”. However, he has never been there nor does he know the
  language or culture or the political situation. He also does not know
  if there are any psychologists living in that nation. Understanding
  attitudes about foods in this nation may help with people with eating
  disorders in Professor Plum’s country and eventually may help people
  with eating disorders in many nations.
• As you consider Professor
  Plum’s research, think about the impact of his plans on human subject
  protection. Also, consider the ethical implications of the aims of his
  research purposes and his ability to gain information that will
  accurately represent those from whom he collects data.

Before Professor Plum begins his research, post and explain
some of the potential ethical issues he will need to consider (i.e.,
impact on human subject protection) and why this is an important
consideration. Further explain two ethical issues and suggest what
courses of action might be appropriate.
