Justice - ANSWER · The selection of research subjects needs to be scrutinized in
order to determine whether some classes are being systematically selected simply
because of their easy availability, their compromised position, or their manipulability,
rather than for reasons directly related to the problem being studied.
Justice - ANSWER · Whenever research supported by public funds leads to the
development of therapeutic devices and procedures, justice demands both that
these not provide advantages only to those who can afford them and that such
research should not unduly involve persons from groups unlikely to be among the
beneficiaries of subsequent applications of the research.
