I find it disturbing that psychology seems to have a stricter adherence to ethical standards (APA Code of Ethics) while all other sciences seem to be lax in the sense that there are no set rules. Sure, those in the medical field and those who conduct research using human participants are bound by the Hippocratic Oath. However, no universal code exists for the life and biomedical sciences according to Nancy L. Jones, a bioethicist from Wake Forest University.
