I am interested in conducting research project on skin to skin contact among mothers and newborn. Have multiple objectives and among those objectives, I want to assess the Infant Breast Feeding pattern and the newborn behavior. So would like to use the Infant Breast Feeding Assessment Tool (IBFAT) and Neonatal (Brazelton )Behavioral Assessment Scale (NBAS). I tried hard to search and worked on the permission part but could not reach to the author who developed these tools. So please someone suggest me how to get the permission.

Hello Dr. Shakil Ahmed,
Thank you so much for the response. Have seen these tools but I want to get permission to use these tools which i could not reach/contact/trace those authors who developed it. I need to contact or email them for the permission purpose. Kindly help me.

I don't think you need any formal permission from the authors for these two assessment tools. Authors published it to use for general people whenever they want. Just cite the original articles containing the tools required by you, and that will be enough from your part.
