Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of the ethics in medical research among Moroccan interns and resident physicians.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In Morocco, medical research ethics training was integrated into the medical curriculum during the 2015 reform. In the same year, a law on medical research ethics was enacted to protect individuals participating in medical research. These improvements, whether in the reform or in the enactment of the law, could positively impact the knowledge of these researchers and, consequently, their attitudes and practices regarding medical research ethics. The main objective of this work is to assess Moroccan physicians' knowledge, attitudes, and practices at the beginning of their careers (interns and residents) in medical research ethics.

Patients and methods

This is a multicenter cross-sectional study conducted in 2021 among Moroccan physicians. Three scores were created
