When they are mentioned in research publications, it is meant that they are good source books to use to find a starting point for an actual research design, not that they are actually books containing research. They could also be mentioned in a research publication because they have been used in a scientific literature review. But that still doesn't make them research. And I doubt seriously that cloggy has ever done any research.

But, I am not being argumentative, Boult. It is important that people understand that what sometimes is referred to as research is no more than expert opinion and interpretation. It doesn't prove or disprove any hypothesis, nor does it offer statistical evidence in support of any theory. And I've seen you request several times that people not speread innacurate information.
