Abstract
Chapters 4 and 5 have already illustrated a range of methodological difficulties in studies with children of different ages. In particular, the use of different de-contextualised tests and tasks was highlighted as a potential risk in research. Methodological challenges are closely linked to ethical issues in child research and this chapter will aim to highlight some common difficulties and possible solutions.
