description Research ethics is a critical component of any academic or scientific discipline. The ethical dilemmas that arise in research can be complex and require researchers to consider multiple perspectives and theories. Reflective practice is an important tool that can help researchers to navigate these challenges. This paper explores the intersection of reflective practice, research ethics, ethical dilemmas, and research ethics theories. It discusses the importance of doing ethical research and the role of reflective practice in promoting ethical behavior among researchers, examines some common ethical dilemmas that researchers may encounter and considers how reflective practice can be used to address them, and considers the role of research ethics theories in shaping both research practice and ethical decision making. The paper suggests that a reflective approach to research can help researchers navigate complex ethical issues and make informed decisions and suggests the Ethics Reflection Model through which ethical dilemmas can be managed.
