Within-subject research approaches are highly valued by the behaviour analytic research community for examining the

relationships between an individual’s behaviour and their surroundings.

This is special because, when deciding whether a research conclusion relates to the clients they work with, behaviour analytic

practitioners can then directly duplicate the research they read.

A reference work for behaviour analysts who perform, oversee or use behaviour analysis-specific research is Research Ethics

in Behaviour Analysis: From Laboratory to Clinic and Classroom.

This book is organised according to the natural research process, starting with an overview of the development of research

ethics throughout history and ending with the current values and principles of scientific research ethics.

The reader is guided through a step-by-step process that starts with gathering funding for a research project and ends with

recruiting participants, carrying out the study, sharing the findings and encouraging replication.

Aspects like diversity, equity, and inclusion in the research process; striking a balance between methodological rigour

and clinical outcomes; coordinating research and clinical goals; evaluating the generalizability of research findings ;

the blurred boundaries between assent and consent for intervention versus research; locating and securing resources to

support research; conflicts of interest; utilising technology and social media and handling data ethically are all covered in

detail in each chapter.
