I was referring to the American Psychological Association, as that is what I am most familiar with. Although duh, Dr. Bob would be responsible to the American Psychiatric Association. I do not know their specific ethical standards for conducting research, but I do know that whether a person is a member of a professional organization or not, the ethical standards are set forth for the entire profession. The APA and the ApA do not have jurisdiction to enforce these standards. State licensing boards do. And state licensing boards enforce state laws, which are often based at least in part on professional standards as set forth by the national professional organization.> > It's been ages since I read the information here before I registered, but I would suspect that a blanket consent would not hold up.

> Maybe the psychiatric association is okay with that.They could be, but it's such a standard in research with human participants in all fields to have a specific informed consent in place, that I would be surprised. It also depends on whether the research is conducted as part of an institution, which would have an institution review board in place with their own requirements for research.
> To the best of my knowledge the Australasian Philosophical Association (and probably the American one too) wouldn't have a problem with fair use of posts so long as they are referenced with URL and time of access.
You'd be a better resource for this. I have no idea about professional philosophical organizations.
