Abstract
AMBIADO-LILLO, Manuel Matías. Bioethics in Researching Executive Functions in Children with Specific Language Impairment. rev.latinoam.bioet. [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.2, pp.93-106. Epub Dec 31, 2021. ISSN 1657-4702. https://doi.org/10.18359/rlbi.5096.
Much is said about bioethics. Unfortunately, concerning the guidelines that must regulate and ensure the dignity and rights of children, there is no coherence with the technical development level of research on specific language impairment and executive functions. For this study, three differentiated searches were carried out in Web of Science, Scopus, Scielo, Library of the National Congress of Chile, and gray sources using the descriptors "specific language impairment," "SLI," "executive functions," "memory," "attention," "inhibition," "bioética," "principios de bioética," "bioética infantil," "investigación científica," and "derechos del niño." We paid particular attention to the presence or absence of ethical guidelines in the methods or working procedures to critically analyze their progression from the eighties to these days. The conclusions show that general bioethical principles are irrelevant if not accompanied by national and international policies that safeguard the dignity of children. Having specific and systematized bioethical provisions for the pediatric population, including fe and tel studies, will solve all the bioethical dilemmas that may arise from the loopholes in current laws. Therefore, rethinking the principles for this age range is crucial.
