by Harris Cooper (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

4.2 9 ratings

See all formats and editions

Many books discuss the ethical treatment of human subjects in behavioral research, yet few talk about the equally important ethical issues that arise when the data are being analyzed and the study is being written up. All researchers need to be aware of their professional responsibilities and make sound choices after the subjects have left. Readers of this book will learn how to: Collect and manage data in a way that does not compromise the confidentiality of subjects, avoid data fraud and misleading data analysis, assign research responsibilities and authorships to team members, avoid committing plagiarism and intellectual theft, and navigate the journal submission and publication process.

About the Author

Harris Cooper is the Hugo L. Blomquist Professor of Psychology & Neuroscience at Duke University. His lab mostly conducts research syntheses and meta-analyses but also collects primary data in the area of educational policy and practice. He has taught research methods to undergraduate and graduate students for more than 40 years and has edited two handbooks on research methods and a guide to reporting research in psychology. Dr. Cooper served as the editor of Psychological Bulletin and inaugural coeditor (with Gary VandenBos) of the Archives of Scientific Psychology, APA's open-access, collaborative data sharing, open methods journal. After his term as Psychological Bulletin editor, he served for 6 years as the chief editorial advisor (CEA) to the APA journals program. The CEA acts as a resource for journal editors, authors, and submitters of manuscripts when (a) disputes arise between editors and authors or between authors and other authors and/or (b) concerns are expressed about the scientific integrity of submitted manuscripts and published articles. For 3 years, Dr. Cooper served as chair of the Department of Psychological Sciences at the University of Missouri–Columbia, and for 5 years he served as chair of the Department of Psychology & Neuroscience at Duke University.
