Conscientious objection: a global health perspective.
BMJ Glob Health
December 2024
Global Bioethics Collaborative, Los Angeles, California, USA.
Conscientious objection is a critical topic that has been sparsely discussed from a global health perspective, despite its special relevance to our inherently diverse field. In this Analysis paper, we argue that blanket prohibitions of a specific type of non-discriminatory conscientious objection are unjustified in the global health context. We begin both by introducing a nuanced account of conscience that is grounded in moral psychology and by providing an overview of discriminatory and non-discriminatory forms of objection.

The rapid pace of development and application of digital technology and data science, including artificial intelligence (AI), is transforming our world. In this chapter, we address the question: "Is bioethics relevant to how we should develop, govern, and use AI in healthcare, specifically in neurosurgery?" We recognize that medical decision-making involves uncertainty and is complex, and predicting potential outcomes is difficult. We conclude that the use of AI in neurosurgery is not inherently unethical.

Article Synopsis
- Children face moral dilemmas that involve conflicts between competing actions and start to appreciate the complexity of these dilemmas as they grow older.
- In a study, younger children tended to prefer a reasoner who was uncertain about their moral choice, viewing them as nicer and more trustworthy compared to a confident decision-maker.
- Older children showed a shift in preference, with 5-year-olds favoring confident decisions, while 6- and 7-year-olds began to value the acknowledgment of uncertainty, indicating evolving moral reasoning capabilities.
