Publications
For ALL research products (including papers and presentations) I use the American Psychological Association's Ethical Principles and Code of Conduct (2010; Standard 8.12a-c) to determine contribution to the work. For each work that I list, I indicate whether these contributions took the following form
(A) obtaining funding for the project;
(B) conceptualization of the work;
(C) substantial original writing;
(D) statistical and/or methodological design;
(E) statistical analyses;
(F) data collections;
(G) editing of the work; and/or
(H) supervision, mentoring, or advising of any of the above.
Also consistent with APA Ethical Standard 8.12b, the order of authorship on the presentations listed reflects the relative scientific or professional contributions of the individuals involved. The list of work includes notations of co-authors or co-presenters who were students (*graduate or **undergraduate) at the time the work occurred. Consistent with APA Ethical Standard 8.12c, students are listed as principal author on presentations resulting from their doctoral dissertations, master’s theses, and research tasks. In these cases, contributions to the work by the faculty member (Glenn Adams) may exceed what one might infer from relative position in the order of authorship.
