Craft a meta message and a fact sheet directed at policymakers that describes your health issue, your proposed intervention, and the primary audience for your media campaign, and post it to the discussion topic. Use the tips provided on page 106 of Essentials of Public Health Communication on preparing fact sheets to help you.
Respond to classmates from the perspective of a policymaker who has questions on how effective this campaign will be in their community. Practice media scanning techniques (found on page 95 of Essentials of public health communication) in your role as policymaker to identify questions that should be anticipated when your classmates are designing their media campaign.
Refer to the Discussion Rubric PDF for directions on completing these discussions.

Principles of biomedical research ethics
COLLAPSE
Ethics are the norms or standards for conduct that helpsto distinguish between acceptable and unacceptable acts. Therefore, ethical considerations in research are extremely important. The three guidig ethical principles of biomedical research are respect for people, beneficence, and distributive justice (Mardani et el., 2019).
1-Respect for person autonomy:
In research, respect for person’s autonomy means that patient will be involved in the research intentionally with understanding, and without controlling influences that could affect patient’s choice. This can be translated practically to informed consent (Mardani et el., 2019)
2-Beneficence
Beneficence means to provide the patient with the maximum benefit and to remove any harm from the patient or minimize it as possible. Another ethical principle is nonmaleficence which is a constant duty to never harm another individual (Mardani et el., 2019)
3- Justice Usually, fairness is another term for justice in the context of health care. In healthcare, distributive justice is a concept in which the resource should be distributed fairly. The issue of distributive justice also appears to be dependent on finding fair ways to distribute limited resources because some products and services are in low supply and cannot be distributed equally (Mardani et el., 2019).
Informed consent should include a description about the procedure and the future consequences, benefits and possible harms. Other things that should be considered is to ensure patient’s privacy and to maintain confidentiality. Privacy is the assurance that individuals get to choose what information they reveal about themselves and they have the full right to refuse sharing any information. In addition, patient has the full right to ask that the interview should be privately without the involvement of any other participants. Most importantly, patient’s identity should not disclosed to unauthorized people (Mardani et el., 2019). Confidentiality is the protection of personal information provided to researchers even for the types of researches that the participants should be followed over the time such as longitudinal studies (Mardani et el., 2019). Moreover, a research protocol must be appropriate to the culture or cultures of the expected study participants. For example, In Saudi Arabia it is important to consider the gender of the patients and the investigators especially in cases that the research intervention may include doing physical assessment. A study protocol that targets a potentially vulnerable population must demonstrate the need for the project, guarantee fair sampling, ensure that participation is voluntarily given, and ensure that volunteers (and/or their legal representatives) are aware of the requirements for participation as well as any potential benefits and risks and all of this should be documented clearly and simply in the consent form (Mardani et el., 2019).

The first step in writing a research proposal is identifying a viable research question in order to fill a gap in literature and/or solve a problem. After considering what most interests you in your field of study (academic program) and conducting a preliminary examination of current research in library databases, you will develop a research question and provide a rationalization for its viability for this section of the research project. The research question will serve as the foundation of your research proposal project.
InstructionsChoose a topic on a newer or emerging topic in your field of study.
Using this FINER protocol, create a research question. Be sure it encompasses each of the following elements: FINER Protocol for Research Questions_Deliverable 2.docx
