A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT Designan experiment or series of
experiments to helpcorporate data scientists better understand the
importance of ethical considerations in their own research. !
A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT ! The data scientists are the
subject of this experiment.
A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT ! The experiment has eight
rules.
A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT Rule 1: ! The experiment requires
data consent from the subjects analogous to that which they obtain
in their own research. !
A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT Rule 2: ! The experiment will
target a random sample from the cohort of possible subjects.
A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT Rule 3: ! The experiment can
utilise any data that the subjects organisation uses to experiment
with its own customers. ! For example current location, audio
feeds, photographs & social graph.
A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT Rule 4: ! The experiment will use
publicly available services and tools, including platforms adopted
by the subjects themselves to gather data and introduce stimuli. !
For example San Da Ha, Task Rabbit, Facebook, ZhuBaJie or
Mechanical Turk.
A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT Rule 5: ! The research will not
currently be illegal in the country where the researcher and the
subjects are based.
A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT Rule 6: ! The process will minimise
the risk of discovery of the experiment by the subjects and their
wider social graph.
A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT Rule 7: ! The results will be
published by the researchers.
A DATA SCIENTIST EXPERIMENT Rule 8: ! The researchers consent
to being part of subsequent experiments under these same eight
rules.
