and emotionally exploited by professionals, such as
psychotherapists, clergy, teachers, and others in positions of
power, as a way of furthering understanding of this issue.
ADVOCATEWEB NEITHER ENDORSES NOR SUPPORTS ANY RESEARCH PROJECT,
NOR DOES IT TAKE A POSITION ON THE QUALITY OR VALIDITY OF ANY
RESEARCH OR ITS OUTCOMES. IN ADDITION, ADVOCATEWEB CANNOT GUARANTEE
THE LEGITIMACY OF ANY RESEARCHER OR IN ANY WAY CONTROL THE FINDINGS
OF A RESEARCH PROJECT OR HOW THOSE FINDINGS WILL BE USED.
