Abstract

This article aims to present and discuss some ethical principles related to the conduct in psychological research, emphasising family research issues. In order to reach it, we initially present some reflections about philosophic and normative ethics and some general rules that we should pursue if we work in the area of psychology. We also discuss some issues related to the data collection and store as well as the communication of research results. This article is concluded pointing out the necessity of discussing the specific ethical issues of a given research project before its implementation in order to minimise the risk of adopting non-ethical conducts.
