The SAGE handbook of child research

Gary B. Melton, Judy Cashmore, Gail S. Goodman, Natalie K. Worley

This authoritative and interdisciplinary handbook takes its lead from a number of key assumptions on the subject of research methods for child-related research. These include, to name but a couple of examples, the importance of recognising the significance of the different contexts in which children find themselves in determining the nature of appropriate research methods, and the importance of having clear ethical guidelines and standards governing the research activities of those involved in research on and with children.
