Which of the following is not a purpose of the american sociological association’s code of ethics?

a. to guarantee the safety of their participants
b. to maintain value neutrality
c. to ensure the financial gain of the researcher(s)
d. to foster professionally responsible scholarship in sociology

The correct response is Option C: to ensure the financial gain of the researcher(s).

Explanation:

Most social scientists do not conduct their academic research for financial gain so this is not a part of the American Sociological Association's code of ethics. The ethics are in place to encourage research that protects the rights of research subjects and promotes a professional level of neutrality in sociological research. Researchers need to be conscientious about how their research may impact the study population and the individual people who are participating in their research. They usually have to assure confidentiality regarding sensitive topics, for example.  

American Sociological Association's code of ethics sets principles and ethical standards which underlie the sociologists professional responsibilities.

These principles should be used as a guideline when examining professional activity. The all three option a, b and d are the purpose of this code of ethics.

The correct answer is C. to ensure the financial gain of the researcher.
