Colorectal cancer risk
Informing the public about lifestyle-related risk factors for colorectal cancer (CRC) is central for cancer prevention. More knowledge is needed about the public’s perceptions of CRC risk and how it relates to their lifestyle decisions, in order to design and communicate risk information effectively. This study aims to explore how the general public perceives risk factors for CRC, their risk of developing CRC, and their willingness to make lifest…
Perceptions of cancer risk communication in individuals with overweight or obesity– a qualitative interview study
Participants experienced that risk information, when presented as simplified associations between obesity and cancer, felt personally relevant but difficult to act upon, and therefore burdensome to bear. Consequently, the information risks failing to prevent cancer and may instead cause harm to the people it purports to benefit. Participants suggested several ways to improve the provision and benefit of such information, including introducing mul…
Individual moral responsibility for antibiotic resistance
Antibiotic resistance (AR) is a major threat to public health and healthcare worldwide. In this article, we analyse and discuss the claim that taking actions to minimize AR is everyone's responsibility, focusing on individual moral responsibility. This should not be merely interpreted as a function of knowledge of AR and the proper use of antibiotics. Instead, we suggest a circumstantial account of individual responsibility for AR, where individu…
Public awareness and individual responsibility needed for judicious use of antibiotics
Knowledge about antibiotic consumption and resistance, as well as values such as altruism and trust in the health care system, has significant influence on both perceptions of individual responsibility and on behavior. This suggests that these factors should be emphasized in health education and health promotion. To instead frame antibiotic resistance as a slowly emerging disaster, risks diminish the public perception of being susceptible to it
Responsibility and Privacy — Ethical Aspects of Using GPS to Track Children
With GPS technology, children can be monitored 24 h a day throughout their childhood and teens. In spite of the advantages in terms of safety and security, there are ethical problems with this. In this article, some of these are discussed. First, the concept of parental responsibility is explored and discussed in the context of GPS and children. Second, against the background of psychological research, it is argued that it is not conducive for ch…
Nuclear energy, responsible risk communication and moral emotions
Communication about nuclear risks is treacherous territory, especially after Fukushima, requiring not only considerations about effectiveness, but also about ethical legitimacy. In this paper, a three-level framework of morally responsible risk communication is developed, focusing on the procedure, the message and the effects of risk communication. This gives rise to three conditions of ethically responsible risk communication: it requires a legi…
Responsibility in Engineering
Traditionally, the management of technology has focused on the stages before or after development of technology. In this approach the technology itself is conceived as the result of a deterministic enterprise; a result that is to be either rejected or embraced. However, recent insights from Science and Technology Studies (STS) have shown that there is ample room to modulate technology during development. This requires technology managers and engi…
Moral Responsibility for Environmental Problems—Individual or Institutional
The actions performed by individuals, as consumers and citizens, have aggregate negative consequences for the environment. The question asked in this paper is to what extent it is reasonable to hold individuals and institutions responsible for environmental problems. A distinction is made between backward-looking and forward-looking responsibility. Previously, individuals were not seen as being responsible for environmental problems, but an idea …
