儿童的声音并不经常被纳入研究。对他们的沟通能力、认知能力以及从事儿童工作时固有的道德困难的关切限制了他们的参与。客观的经验证据表明，如果一个人适当地让孩子们参与研究，他们就能够做出重大贡献。然而，要求研究人员采取被动观察者角色的方法可能会带来伦理困境。当与儿童一起工作时，道德困境可以通过扮演参与者的角色来最小化。研究者的成人参与角色完全符合儿童有意义地参与研究的认知和社会需求。
Children's voices have not often found their way into research. Concerns about their powers of communication, cognitive abilities and the ethical difficulties inherent when working with children have restricted their participation. Objective, empirical evidence suggests that if one engages children in research appropriately they are able to make a significant contribution. However, methodologies that require researchers to adopt a role of passive observer potentially pose ethical dilemmas. When working with children ethical dilemmas can be minimised by taking on the role of a participant adult. The participant adult role for the researcher is entirely congruent with the cognitive and social needs of children to participate meaningfully in research.
