Abstract

While setting up a study of interaction between physicians and parents of critically ill inner-city children, a young anthropologist contacted the chair of the Department of Pediatrics of the medical school affiliated with her university. During their discussion, the physician give the researcher a copy of a questionnaire for parents of sick children, that would be helpful for the anthropologist's study. She finds out later, however, that the questionnaire came from a National Institutes of Health grant proposal for which the physician had given an unfavorable review. What should a junior researcher do in this situation?
