Using books for children in research - copyright

E

Hi there
I wonder if anyone knows what the procedure would be for using a published children's books in psychological research - and maybe even amending it a little for your purposes. I've had a google, but haven't yet found any answers.
Thanks

In case anyone else is enquiring...
