      ab: Part of a special issue on new advances in methods of inquiry about sex. Arguing that new ethical dilemmas may stem from using the “virtual world” of the Internet to conduct innovative sex research, the writers analyze ethical issues in recruitment, informed consent, data collection, and record keeping. They contend that the application of common sense and current ethical codes for undertaking sex research are adequate in most cases. However, they point out that special care and procedures may be needed in order to obtain data from children and to safeguard the privacy of sensitive data and records. Furthermore, they assert that researchers should be aware of, and should report, threats to data integrity and potential biases in subjects' responses when they participate in studies by computer.
