Reconstruction Key & Repair Protocol

Use only after attempting retrieval.

Rapid recall key

  • R1: Ethical handling spans obtainment/procurement, storage, management, interpretation/analysis/application and disposal; judge alignment with ethical principles and effects on people/organizations.
  • R2: impact on people; potential misuse; economic value/ownership.
  • R3: secure data can still harm when incomplete, inaccurate, misleading or inappropriately used.
  • R4: trust/reputation, reduced misuse/decision risk, stronger stakeholder relationships, clearer ownership/sharing responsibility, human dignity.
  • R5: Respect = autonomy/dignity; Beneficence = benefit/harm; Justice = equitable treatment.
  • R6: Respect for Law and Public Interest.
  • R7: future-oriented regulation/privacy rights; accountable controllers; privacy-conscious design; empowered individuals.
  • R8: Governance establishes/oversees decision rights, standards and appropriate/necessary handling.
  • R9: purpose/limitation; notice/transparency; choice/consent; access/correction; accuracy/quality; security; minimization/retention; accountability/redress.
  • R10: Fairness/Lawfulness/Transparency; Purpose Limitation; Data Minimization; Accuracy; Storage Limitation; Integrity & Confidentiality; Accountability.
  • R11: affirmative, freely given, specific, informed, unambiguous; rights discussed include access, rectification, portability, objection, erasure.
  • R12: ownership; Right to be Forgotten; identity; freedom of speech online vs harmful behavior.
  • R13: Timing; misleading visualization; definitions/invalid comparison/statistical misuse; bias; integration/transformation; obfuscation/redaction.
  • R14: pre-defined result collection; biased use; hunch/search; biased sampling; context/culture.
  • R15: without provenance, meaning, Metadata, quality, protection and auditable history, trust cannot be explained and harmful decisions can follow.
  • R16: combination can re-identify; masking reduces exposure but is not a universal guarantee.
  • R17: leadership, policy/code, principles/practices, training, controls, monitoring/audit, safe escalation/no retaliation, OCM, roadmap, Governance/legal oversight.
  • R18: Population → Capture → Analysis → Results/Use; Governance sets/oversees, Legal interprets law, practitioners identify/explain/escalate.

Three-minute key highlights

  • Belmont/Menlo/EDPS: Belmont provides human-subject ethical principles; Menlo adapts to ICT and adds Law/Public Interest; EDPS reinforces privacy/data-protection accountability, design and empowerment.
  • GDPR practical questions: fair/lawful/transparent = can we explain/justify it? purpose = compatible use? minimization = need this much? accuracy = correct/current? storage = still need identifiable data? integrity/confidentiality = appropriately protected? accountability = can we demonstrate responsibility?
  • Six risks: time window; graphical framing; meaning/population; systematic slant; provenance/meaning/history across integration; residual re-identification.
  • Principle→Risk→Practice→Control: value → possible harm → expected behavior → testable enforcement.

Classification key

ID Best classification Decisive clue
C1 Respect for Persons meaningful choice/autonomy
C2 Beneficence avoidable harm vs benefit
C3 Justice disproportionate group treatment
C4 Misleading visualization graphical scale/framing
C5 Invalid comparison populations/definitions not like-for-like
C6 Bias — hunch and search search/filtering confirms belief
C7 Transformation/integration origin/meaning/lineage/history unknown
C8 Obfuscation/redaction re-identification after identifiers removed
C9 Ethical-culture failure values without practices/controls/training/escalation
C10 Governance + Legal + practitioner responsibility no prohibition does not end ethical review

Compression checkpoints

5-minute answer: ethics beyond law; people/misuse/value; Belmont + Menlo; privacy themes; online issues; six risks and five bias mechanisms; culture; Principle→Risk→Practice→Control; four checkpoints; Governance/Legal/practitioner roles.

2-minute skeleton: Responsible handling asks whether use is defensible for people and purpose, not merely legal. Apply ethical principles, recurring privacy logic and six handling-risk patterns; operationalize through culture, controls and Governance.

30-second professional rule: Before consequential data use, ask whether purpose, people impact, fairness, privacy, quality/meaning/provenance, disclosure risk and oversight are defensible — and make controls/accountability visible.

Changed-fact answers

  1. Respect for Persons.
  2. Timing.
  3. Re-identification risk is reduced; Governance still considers purpose, access/use, sensitivity, downstream combination and contextual safeguards.
  4. Data Quality.
  5. Control.
  6. No. Governance review does not eliminate practitioner responsibility; hiding fairness risk violates the organization-wide duty.

Repair protocol

  • Knowledge gap: reread only the relevant source section; close it; explain from memory; create a new example.
  • Principle confusion: classify changed-fact Respect vs Beneficence vs Justice cases.
  • Privacy-theme confusion: ask the management question — purpose? amount? accuracy? retention? protection? accountability? — instead of memorizing labels alone.
  • Risk-pattern confusion: identify the mechanism — time, graphic, definition, bias, provenance or re-identification.
  • Role confusion: separate Governance oversight, Legal interpretation and practitioner duty.
  • Confidently wrong: mark high priority for spaced retest because confidence can hide a durable misconception.
