This study aims to explore the prevalence of clinic‐based research among accredited marriage and family therapy (MFT) programs and reveal rationales explaining why academic settings may or may not be conducting clinical research. Findings of this project are the result of electronic‐mail surveys completed by 26 accredited MFT programs. Approximately one‐half of the respondents reported currently conducting clinic‐based research. Open‐ended responses reveal factors that lead to research success and failure, as well as reasons was not being conducted at training programs.
