animal research
The APA Guidelines for Ethical Conduct in the Care and Use of Animals state:
Research should be undertaken with a clear scientific purpose. There should be a reasonable expectation that the research will:
a) increase knowledge of the processes underlying the evolution, development, maintenance, alteration, control, or biological significance of behavior,
c) increase understanding of the species under study; or
d) provide results that benefit the health or welfare of humans or other animals (2005, section I. A).
