Ethics related to research seems to vary amongst reseachers, but one common thread is the researcher will ultimately determines ethical responsibility in the research conducted. For example, researchers should critically analyze their obligations to participants based on the relationship titles exchanged (Hallet). Researchers need to engage in reflexivity and empathetic sensitivity to the social emotional states of the individual engaged in research (Warin 2011) calls the process relational awareness. There is a relationship between ethics and good researcher because ethically the researcher should not intentionally be doing research that would harm a participant. Researchers have an ethical obligation to interact with participants "in a humane nonexploitive way while at the same time being mindful of ones role as a researcher," (Guillemin & Gillam, 2004, pg 264).
