Abstract

Constantly examining and revising the regulations of investigation ethics committees (IEC) is important to help perfect their activities. The objective of this study was to analyze the regulations of investigation ethics committees at the universities in the State of Bahia. The data from this qualitative-quantitative descriptive, documentary study were analyzed with Sphinx software and Thematic Content Analysis Technology. The analysis showed these regulations have similarities and differences among them, and in terms of what is called for in Resolution 196/1996 and the Operating Manual for Investigation Ethics Committees. Consequently, they need to be revised to address those legal documents more appropriately and to improve the activities overseen by these committees in order to take full advantage of the potential that exists and to minimize operational constraints.
