该杂志一直刊载刊载直接涉及儿童的研究结果的论文，不用说，此类研究必须始终符合最高的道德标准。有一个健全的伦理框架来指导研究过程的各个阶段，这是涉及儿童的研究的必要先决条件，并且与以儿童权利为基础的方法相一致，这种方法尊重儿童被“适当研究”的权利（Ennew and Plateau, 2004），尊重儿童在影响他们生活的问题上的发言权，并在这个过程中受到保护（Lundy和McEvoy， 2012）。幸运的是，我们在如何在实践中实现这一目标方面拥有丰富的深思熟虑的指导（Alderson and Morrow, 2020; Graham et al, 2013; Graham et al, 2015）。这一指导方针得到了一个在线资源库的进一步充实——涉及儿童的研究伦理（eric）——其中包含的信息和资源不仅旨在促进国际交流与合作，而且还邀请人们对不同文化、社会、宗教、政治和经济背景下儿童研究伦理的一些更具挑战性和争议性的方面进行批判性反思（http://childethics.com）。埃里克项目产生的《涉及儿童的伦理研究国际宪章》重申了我们对支持儿童权利和童年研究的价值观和原则的共同承诺。来自世界各地的数十名研究人员、从业人员、组织和项目已经签署了该协议，他们致力于“开展和支持尊重儿童人类尊严、权利和福祉的高质量伦理研究”。但是，这种原则声明和实际指导需要得到体制承诺和在实践中执行这些原则和指导的开放态度的支持。我们知道，许多研究人员经历了深深的挫折，当
This journal has always featured papers presenting the findings of studies directly involving children, and it goes without saying that such research must always meet the highest ethical standards. Having a robust ethical framework in place to guide all stages of the research process is a necessary precondition for research involving children and sits comfortably with a children’s rightsbased approach which honours children’s right to be ‘properly researched’ (Ennew and Plateau, 2004) to be heard on matters that affect their lives, and to be protected in the process (Lundy and McEvoy, 2012). We are fortunate to have an abundance of thoughtful guidance on how to achieve this in practice (Alderson and Morrow, 2020; Graham et al, 2013; Graham et al, 2015). This guidance has been further enriched by an online repository – The Ethics of Research Involving Children (eric) – containing information and resources aimed not only at nurturing international exchange and collaboration, but also at inviting critical reflection on some of the more challenging and contested aspects of child research ethics in different cultural, social, religious, political and economic contexts (http://childethics.com). The International Charter for Ethical Research Involving Children, which has emerged from the eric project, reaffirms our shared commitment to the values and principles underpinning the study of children’s rights and childhood. It has already been signed by dozens of researchers, practitioners, organisations and projects from around the world who are committed to ‘undertaking and supporting high quality ethical research that is respectful of children’s human dignity, rights and wellbeing’. Such statements of principles and practical guidance need to be supported, however, by an institutional commitment and openness to implementing them in practice. We know that many researchers experience deep frustration when
