VIEIRA, Camila Mugnai  and  OMOTE, Sadao. Methodological and ethical aspects of a research on changing social attitudes of teachers and students toward inclusion. Rev. Reflex [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.3, pp.299-. ISSN 1982-9949.  https://doi.org/10.17058/rea.v25i3.9727.

The article discusses methodological and ethical aspects of a research performed to analyze the effects of a teachers training to administer an informative program to their students on the social attitudes of both parts in relation to inclusion. They are discussed subjects referring to the type of experimental design used and its advantages, moments of attitudes measurements (pretest, post-test and follow up), intra-design replication and historical series developed to strengthen the reliability of the study, teachers as collaborators in the research with students, and the alternative to consider the ethical demands. It follows that it is possible, in the conceiving of a research, to take strictly in account a careful design that allows a better reliability of the results and, at the same time, to create strategies to consider ethical demands, minimizing or eliminating the possibility of some students exclusion during the study.
