Incorporating the perspectives of young people regarding their perspectives on ethical collaborative research may enrich our current understanding of ethical practices within such research, as young people are capable of providing creative, innovative and novel perspectives that otherwise remain unknown to the adult academic establishment. Youth, Ethics & Participation (YEP), a qualitative study conducted as part of the Health CASCADE project, aimed at engaging young people around the nature and meaning of ethics within collaborative research while developing moral awareness. Young people shared their perspectives on the meaning of ethical collaborative research, while showing their interest and ability of moral reasoning through the formulation of arguments explaining their position on a variety of ethically salient issues within collaborative research. The current study indicates that the engagement of young people in collaborative research is a potential source for instigating social change through their engagement in moral reasoning.
纳入年轻人对伦理协作研究的看法，可能会丰富我们目前对此类研究中伦理实践的理解，因为年轻人能够提供富有创造性、创新性和新颖性的观点，而这些观点是成年学术机构所不了解的。作为健康级联项目的一部分进行的定性研究“青年、伦理与参与”（YEP），旨在让年轻人参与探讨协作研究中伦理的本质和意义，同时培养道德意识。年轻人分享了他们对伦理协作研究意义的看法，同时通过阐述论点来解释他们在协作研究中对各种伦理突出问题的立场，展现出他们的道德推理兴趣和能力。当前的研究表明，年轻人参与协作研究是通过他们参与道德推理来推动社会变革的一个潜在源泉。
