Ethical Practice of Statistics and Data Science is intended to
prepare people to fully assume their responsibilities to practice
statistics and data science ethically. Aimed at early career
professionals, practitioners, and mentors or supervisors of
practitioners, the book supports the ethical practice of statistics
and data science, with an emphasis on how to earn the designation
of, and recognize, "the ethical practitioner". The book features 47
case studies, each mapped to the Data Science Ethics Checklist
(DSEC); Data Ethics Framework (DEFW); the American Statistical
Association (ASA) Ethical Guidelines for Statistical Practice; and
the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) Code of Ethics. It is
necessary reading for students enrolled in any data intensive
program, including undergraduate or graduate degrees in
(bio-)statistics, business/analytics, or data science. Managers,
leaders, supervisors, and mentors who lead data-intensive teams in
government, industry, or academia would also benefit greatly from
this book. This is a companion volume to Ethical Reasoning For A
Data-Centered World, also published by Ethics International Press
(2022). These are the first and only books to be based on, and to
provide guidance to, the ASA and ACM Ethical Guidelines/Code of
Ethics.
The American Statistical Association (ASA) and the Association of
Computing Machinery (ACM) have longstanding ethical practice
standards that are explicitly intended to be utilized by all who
use statistical practices or computing, or both. Since statistics
and computing are critical in any data-centered activity, these
practice standards are essential to instruction in the uses of
statistical practices or computing across disciplines. Ethical
Reasoning for a Data-Centered World is aimed at any undergraduate
or graduate students utilizing data. Whether the career goal is
research, teaching, business, government, or a combination, this
book presents a method for understanding and prioritizing ethical
statistics, computing, and data science - featuring the ASA and ACM
practice standards. To facilitate engagement, integration with
prior learning, and authenticity, the material is organized around
seven tasks: Planning/Designing; Data collection; Analysis;
Interpretation; Reporting; Documenting; and Engaging in Team Work.
This book is a companion volume to Ethical Practice of Statistics
and Data Science, also published by Ethics International Press
(2022). These are the first and only books to be based on, and to
provide guidance to, the American Statistical Association (ASA) and
Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) ethical guideline
documents.
