Health and Social Science Research in the Arctic: Guidelines and Pitfalls.

Kraus, Robert F.

American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research, v2 n3 p77-81 Spr 1989

Proposes ethical principles for Arctic research suggested by the Barrow Alcohol Study. Suggests that lack of understanding of the Native community, the mistaken assumption that informed consent had been obtained, and the influence of (and political struggles among) non-Native institutions and agencies contributed to the problems.
