Explanation:

• Integrity: Accepting funding from a benefactor of the study can create pressure to alter results, violating honest research practice.
• Objectivity: Funding from a interested party risks bias in data interpretation or result reporting, undermining neutrality.

Informed consent relates to participant agreement, and confidentiality relates to protecting participant data—both are unrelated to funding conflicts.

Answer:

• integrity
• objectivity
