The principles of social justice, equity, diversity, inclusion (JEDI) have received increasing attention in behavior analysis circles, but the conversation has largely centered on implications for applied behavior analysis practice and research. It may be less clear to researchers who conduct basic and translational research how JEDI principles can inform and inspire their work. This article synthesizes publications from behavior analysis and other scientific fields about tactics of JEDI-informed research. We organized this scholarship across five stages of research from developing the research question to sharing findings and curated sources for an audience of behavioral science researchers. We discuss reflexive practice, representation, belongingness, participatory research, quantitative critical theory, and open science, among other topics. Some researchers may have already adopted some of the practices outlined, some may begin new practices, and some may choose to conduct experimental analyses of JEDI problems. Our hope is that those actions will be reinforced by the behavior analysis scientific community. We conclude by encouraging the leadership of this journal to continue to work toward the structural changes necessary to make the experimental analysis of behavior just, equitable, diverse, and inclusive.
社会正义、公平、多样性和包容性（JEDI）原则在行为分析领域受到越来越多的关注，但讨论主要集中在对应用行为分析实践和研究的影响上。对于进行基础和转化研究的研究人员来说，JEDI 原则如何为他们的工作提供信息和启发可能不太清楚。本文综合了来自行为分析和其他科学领域的关于 JEDI 知情研究策略的出版物。我们根据研究问题的发展将这些学术成果分为研究的五个阶段进行组织，为行为科学研究人员提供了资源。我们讨论了反思实践、代表性、归属感、参与式研究、定量批判理论和开放科学等主题。一些研究人员可能已经采用了其中的一些做法，一些研究人员可能会开始新的实践，而一些研究人员可能会选择对 JEDI 问题进行实验分析。我们希望这些行动将得到行为分析科学界的支持。最后，我们鼓励本刊领导层继续努力进行必要的结构性变革，以使行为的实验分析更加公正、公平、多样化和包容。
