Impact Validity is the extent to which research has the potential to play a role in social and political change or is useful as a tool for advocacy or activism. A series of articles have been collected for this issue that exemplify the intersection of science, activism \/ advocacy, and social change. These articles highlight the ways in which others have strategically grounded their research in the advocacy needs of the social\/political issue they are trying to influence, and the various decisions throughout the research process that have had a bearing on its potential to be useful in addressing social problems. These decisions, which rarely receive systematic attention, take central stage.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45200986144919,"sku":"9781118890608","price":4082.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781118890608.webp?v=1767667837","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/impact-validity-as-a-framework-for-advocacy-based-research-9781118890608","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
