摘要:This Nordoff Robbins publication is written in the form of a Guide and follows the spirit and tradition of other research resources produced by the London Centre, notably Presenting the Evidence (revised version 2009) which is widely used on the UK Masters training courses and by music therapy practitioners wishing to carry out service evaluations. Towards Ethical Research is a welcome development and offers a clear and detailed guide to the process of gaining ethical approval for music therapy and music and health research projects within the UK. The Guide is authored by music therapists Camilla Farrant, Merc¨¦d¨¨s Pavlicevic and Giorgos Tsiris, all of whom work in the Research Department of Nordoff Robbins; Camilla and Giorgos are Research Assistants and Merc¨¦d¨¨s is the Director of Research. They have diverse clinical and research interests and this combined experience is evident from some of the examples and different sensibilities expressed in the Guide. Camilla works with children and adults with learning disabilities. Giorgos works in a hospice, is currently an MPhil/PhD Candidate (Music Therapy) at Nordoff Robbins and is the founding Editor-in-Chief of Approaches: Music Therapy & Special Music Education. Merc¨¦d¨¨s is Professor Extraordinaire in Music Therapy, University of Pretoria, and provides research consultancy for a music therapy community clinic in Cape Town, South Africa. Her current research interests include spontaneous musicing processes in groups of people disadvantaged by disability, illness, or social deprivation, and how these processes result in transformed cooperative social relating and revised social identities
