Abstract
AbstractThere is growing interest in experiments conducted by researchers and policymakers as a team. The attraction of these ‘embedded experiments’ is that they seem to facilitate speedy translation of research into policy. This approach, however, can trivialise public policy and compromise the independence of the researchers. It is also a fountain of ethical dilemmas including consent issues, conflicts of interest and compensation norms. The perils of embedded experiments, and possible safeguards, are discussed with the help of a case study.
