Sociological Research Online, 2005, vol. 10, issue 3, 80-89

Abstract: This paper explores the potential of research project Home Pages in relation to the growing need for good governance of research projects. In particular, the paper considers the benefits such web pages might have in terms of research ethics and argues that research project Home Page s can provide a very straightforward, practical means of addressing a number of ethical issues related to both on-line and off-line research. Limitations to the use of research project Home Page s are also discussed and conclusions are drawn about the value of establishing appropriately designed research project Home Page s as an integral component of social research protocols.
