Law, morality and ethical rules can be described as different branches of the same river that feed each other. As a matter of fact, contrary to strict positivist understandings, it should not be denied that legal rules are a set of rules that have been sifted through moral and ethical rules. While imposing legal rules have foreseen the continuation of the order, ethical rules that serve the order with the aim of ensuring the good of the society are also of great importance. While the rules of professional ethics, which are an output of the concept of ethics, play a role in raising competent people, the rules of research ethics are effective in the creation of quality studies that do not cause plagiarism. Moral rules, which vary from society to society and are narrower than ethical rules, both shape the rules of law and are fed by ethics. In short, both law, morality and ethics, which the inclusive positivist understanding points to, are different concepts and generally embody the social order; Even if there is a difference between them, the fact that this difference is not sharp should be kept in mind. What needs to be done is to implement the rules of law established on the axis of moral and ethical rules, and to train virtuous professionals and researchers by adopting educational models on the axis of ethical values.
