title: How Does Experiential Knowledge of Distress Influenced the Decision to Train as a Psychological Therapist?
Creators: name: Aina, Olumayowa
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: Clinical psychologists do not appear to be willing to talk about their own experiences of distress. This may be due to the scientist practitioner model that has dominated the profession for some time. Recently, there appears to be a shift towards a reflective practitioner model with a growing interest in personal and professional development which may provide a cultural shift. It is clear from the literature that psychologists’ own experiences of distress prior to training, influence their decision to pursue therapeutic careers. In addition to this, there is evidence that suggests that the life experiences of psychologists influences the theoretical orientations that they use in practice. The present study aims to address the gaps in the literature by exploring the influence of distressing experiences that occur before training and how these experiences influence the decision to train as a clinical psychologist. Furthermore, the present study aims to explore how experiences of distress influence the development of a clinical psychologist’s preferred theoretical orientation.
Eight participants‘ accounts were analysed by using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. The following four themes were identified; how experiences of distress influence the career pathway to clinical psychology, being a professional who has experiential knowledge of distress, how personal experiences of distress influence how clinical psychologists relate to clients and how distress influences the way change processes are understood. Participants acknowledged the influence of experiential distress on career choice and on theoretical orientation, however this was one of many influences that were considered to be important. The findings have both clinical and research implications which are discussed.
title: The Cognitive Assessment of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Children in Ireland: Best Practice for Educational Psychologists
Creators: name: Bond, Pol
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: A recent publication from the NCSE* (The Education of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Children in Ireland, 2011, p65) recommended that “The National Educational Psychological service should work towards a psychological service being available with a sufficient level of competency in ISL to administer psychological assessments and to communicate with parents and children whose preferred mode of communication is through ISL”. The research undertaken was to investigate the challenges that arise when cognitively assessing such children and to test assessments tools to try develop an awareness of best practice in the field (in line with NEPS draft recommendations).
The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children fourth edition (WISC-IV UK) was administered through ISL including the Verbal Comprehension Index, Working Memory Index and Processing Speed along with the traditional format of assessing Fluid Intelligence (Perceptual Reasoning) to establish a Full Scale I.Q. The Wechsler Non-Verbal Intelligence Scale of Ability, which requires no language input, was then administered to the same students (N=33)
In theory, both tests assert that they are assessing “Intelligence” or cognitive ability “g” and should produce similar if not identical I.Q scores. The research aimed to analyse these scores and see if they are consistent across the sample and examine any irregularities that might arise from the data.
Results showed that there was a very significant difference in the I.Q scores of the WNV and the WISC IV (p

This study looks at how graduates of Mindanao State University at Naawan performed on the 2017–2022 Licensure Examination for Secondary Teachers (LET). In addition to college GPA, it evaluates results in General Education, Professional Education, and major subjects. The graduate education courses were English, Science, Mathematics, and Certified Professional Teachers (CPRT). According to the data, there are notable variations in LET performance among major courses. Graduates in mathematics performed the highest, followed by CPRT and English, while those in science received the lowest scores. LET performance and undergraduate GPA showed a significant moderate positive relationship using the Spearman correlation.
title: The Effect of Water Consumption on Schoolchildren's Fine Motor Skills, Cognitive Function and Mood
Creators: name: Booth, Paula
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: Previous research has suggested that dehydration may have a negative effect on some aspects of mood, cognitive performance and motor skills (Benton, 2011). Furthermore, a large proportion of children arrive at school in a dehydrated state (Baron, Courbebaisse, Lepicard, & Friedlander, 2015). The present work investigated whether supplementing children with water may, as a consequence of reducing dehydration, improve their cognitive performance and motor skills.
In studies 1, 2, 3 and 5, it was found that tasks that predominantly tested motor skills, were improved in children who had a drink, compared to those who did not. Furthermore, study 3 showed that this effect was moderated by hydration status. One theoretical explanation for the poorer performance of dehydrated children is that they may lack the neurological resources to sustain their effort and thus performance does not improve over time. In support of this, these studies showed that, when re-hydrated, performance on these tasks improves to the level of non-dehydrated children. Study 2 showed that the number of errors increased in a StopSignal task in children that had high self-rated levels of thirst, compared to low levels: and hydration status did not moderate this effect. A possible explanation for the increased number of errors in children with high self-rated thirst is that the thirst sensation diverts attention away from the task, causing task performance to deteriorate. In study 4, it was observed that there was a large variation in intra-individual and inter-individual hydration scores throughout the day, which was not related to volume drank or levels of thirst.
Further studies should use imaging techniques to study brain activity during dehydration and rehydration, and during periods of high thirst, to help to further elucidate the mechanism underlying the negative effect of dehydration on motor performance, and the effect of self-rated thirst on attention.

title: Constructing Personal and Couple Narratives in Late Stage Cancer: A Narrative Analysis
Creators: name: Anthias, Louise
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: An increasing number of people with terminal cancer are being cared for at
home, often by their partner. This study explores the identity, experiences and
relationships of people caring for their partner at the end of life and how they
construct their experience through personal and couple narratives. It draws
upon dialogical approaches to narrative analysis to focus on caring partners
and the care relationship. Six participants were recruited for the study. Two
methods of data collection are used: narrative interviews and journals.
Following individual case analysis, two methods of cross-narrative analysis
are used: an analysis of narrative themes and an identification of narrative
types.
The key findings can be summarised as follows. First, in the period since their
partner's terminal prognosis, participants sustained and reconstructed self and
couple relationship narratives. These narratives aided the construction of
meaning and coherence at a time of major biographical disruption: the
anticipated loss of a partner. Second, the study highlights the complexity of
spoken and unspoken narratives in terminal cancer and how these relate to
individual and couple identities. Third, a typology of archetypal narratives
based upon the data is identified. The blow-by-blow narratives illustrate how
participants sought to construct coherence and meaning in the illness story,
while champion and resilience narratives demonstrate how participants
utilised positive self and relational narratives to manage a time of biographical
disruption. The study highlights how this narrative approach can enhance
understanding of the experiences and identities of people caring for a
terminally ill partner.

description: Quantum computing, the use of quantum computers that use quantum physics to process data, arrange, storeand so on. Classical computer deals with data called bits. On the other hand, quantum computers operate on quantum bits(qubits). Qubits are represented by basis vectors expressed as |0> and |1>. In quantum computing, a quantum logic gate(quantum gate) is a basic quantum circuit operating on qubits. They are the building blocks of quantum circuits. Whilesome gates operate on a single qubit. Also, some quantum gates such as Toffoli and Controlled NOT gate manipulatemultiple qubits. Pauli gates, Hadamard are examples of single-qubit gates. In Quantum computing there are basicoperations defined such as Quantum Fourier Transform (QFT). QFT is the main operation in Shor’s Prime factorizationalgorithm announced in 1995. on qubits, we use QFT for a linear transformation.Because the lack of resources, we cannot handle our huge applications on physical quantum computers. So we are ableto simulate on classic computers. There are some simulator tools such as QISKIT that developed by IBM and QX by QUTouch company.In this research, we used QISKIT simulator which is an open-source platform. There are Education and Business optionsfor QISKIT. We can install It on a local machine or we access online and it includes a code editor (QSM) and a graphicaluser interface.We implemented a 5-qubit QFT algorithm with QISKIT. We used 5 Hadamard gates and 10 phase flip gates. The longestpath has 5 gates. We tested our design on IBM Quantum Computer in Yorktown.

title: Measurement of Training Intensity and Work During Submaximal Isokinetic Progressive Resistance Training Protocols
Creators: name: Barchha, Pritesh
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: Physical exercise programmes are routinely prescribed in clinical practice to treat impairments, improve activity and participation in daily life because of their known physiological, health and psychological benefits (RCP, 2009). Progressive resistance exercise is a type of exercise prescribed specifically to improve skeletal muscle strength (Latham et al., 2004). The effectiveness of progressive resistance exercise varies considerably between studies and populations. This thesis focuses on how training parameters influence the delivery of progressive resistance exercise. In order to appropriately evaluate the influence of training parameters, this thesis argues the need to record training performance and the total work completed by participants as prescribed by training protocols.
In the first study, participants were taken through a series of protocols differentiated by the intensity and volume of training. Training intensity was defined as a proportion of the mean peak torque achieved during maximal voluntary contractions and was set at 80% and 40% respectively of the MVC mean peak torque. Training volume was defined as the total external work achieved over the training period. Measures of training performance were developed to accurately report the intensity, repetitions and work completed during the training period. A second study evaluated training performance of the training protocols over repeated sessions. These protocols were then applied to 3 stroke survivors.
Study 1 found sedentary participants could achieve a differentiated training intensity. Participants completing the high and low intensity protocols trained at 80% and 40% respectively of the MVC mean peak torque. The total work achieved in the high intensity low repetition protocol was lower than the total work achieved in the low intensity high repetition protocol. With repeated practice, study 2 found participants were able to improve in their ability to perform manoeuvres as shown by a reduction in the variation of the mean training intensity achieving total work as specified by the protocol to a lower margin of error. When these protocols were applied to 3 stroke survivors, they were able to achieve the specified training intensity but they were not able to achieve the total work as expected for the protocol. This is likely to be due to an inability in achieving a consistent force throughout the contraction.
These results demonstrate evaluation of training characteristics and support the need to record and report training performance characteristics during progressive resistance
exercise, including the total work achieved, in order to elucidate the influence of training parameters on progressive resistance exercise. The lack of accurate training performance may partly explain the inconsistencies between studies on optimal training parameters for progressive resistance exercise.

title: Ways in which the Cultural Identities of Mixed Heritage Individuals are Maintained in Mixed Ethnic Stepfamilies
Creators: name: Ayo, Yvonne
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: There has been an increasing amount of research into mixed heritage
individuals, both adults and adolescents. More recently, some research
has emerged on mixed heritage families, but there is hardly any
research on mixed ethnicity stepfamilies. As a systemic clinician of
mixed heritage, my research interest has stemmed from my personal
experience of living in a stepfamily with visible differences, where my
fathers Nigerian culture was not discussed. In my clinical job, work with
families from culturally mixed backgrounds and have developed a keen
interest in their experiences of maintaining the different cultures. I used
discourse analysis to examine the various ways in which stepfamilies
talked about their differences. Five stepfamilies were recruited. The
biological parents (all mothers) and their partners and children participated in the study. The study revealed considerable variation in
the talking and maintenance of cultural heritages within the stepfamilies,
but four main findings emerged. In some stepfamilies, there was little or
no talking, whilst in others, talking about the process of becoming a
stepfamily occurred. The stepfamilies had various experiences of living
with their visible differences, which included ideas of not having any
differences or minimising differences. The extended family's role also
played an important part that changed over time. The biological fathers
'presence' was particularly significant to the children, most of whom
maintained contact with their fathers. The study has revealed stepfamily
life's complexities and the numerous ways in which the mixed heritage
children/stepchildren navigated the different households to maintain their
cultural heritages.

description: Polymers are classes of natural or synthetic substances composed of very large molecules, calledmacromolecules, which are multiples of simpler chemical units called monomers. Polymers establish a considerable lotof the materials in living creatures, including, proteins, cellulose and nucleic acids.Quantum chemistry is the application of quantum mechanical principles and equations to understand molecules. Quantumchemistry distinguishes itself from other computational methods. It is established on laws of nature: "Quantummechanics". The Quantum chemical calculations allow us to accurately predict the structures of molecules and thespectroscopic behavior of atoms and molecules for their previous study.Computational chemistry can be described as the way we use chemistry using computers instead of real chemicalcomponents. Over the years, powerful molecular modeling tools have been developed that can predict the structures,energy, reactivities and other properties of molecules.These developments have occurred largely due to the dramatic increase in the speed of the computer and the design ofefficient quantum chemical algorithms.All quantum chemical calculations use a special system of units which are very natural and greatly simplify expressionsfor various quantities.The purpose of this research is to perform simulations and calculations of chemical polymers using the open sourcepackage PSI4. PSI4 allows us to perform efficient and highly accurate simulations of a variety of molecular properties.

title: The Issues for Young People Post 16 with Additional Needs in College -
A Mixed Methods Study
Creators: name: Bell, Alison
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: The new Code of Practice (DfE, 2014) requires Educational Psychologists (EPs) to work with young people up to the age of 25. Therefore they would need to work in colleges with young people that have additional needs. This research asks what issues do young people (YP) with additional needs face in college and what support do they need?
A systematic literature review showed that very little research has been done in this area, and most of it has come from the US. From the UK, there was some research around transition from school to college and also transition into adulthood, particularly in terms of medical and health services.
Mixed methods exploratory research was conducted starting with an audit of post 16 YP. Further research was then conducted within a local authority (LA) college, firstly with seventeen adults working and living with YP with additional needs and then with eight YP. Data collection involved questionnaires to parents and staff members asking them about the support they would like from EPs and any issues they believed YP faced in college. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with young people aged 16 to 25 asking them about the issues they experience in college, the support they are given and the support they would like.
The findings presented three main issues in college. These were personal issues, social issues and issues with the college itself. The YP also identified two other issues, future transition and changes in the past and future. They identified a number of support networks already in place, such as families, tutors, friends and themselves. Adults identified support they could be given by EPs such as training and individual work with young people.
iv
From these findings, support that college staff and EPs could provide was identified. This included training for staff, individual work with students, helping link with families, linking schools and colleges, enabling peer networks of support and educating young people and colleges about the role of the EP.

title: Pervasive Refusal Syndrome (PRS). Understandings and Perspectives of Treating Professional Working with Children and Young People.
Creators: name: Coombs, Elizabeth
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: Pervasive refusal syndrome (PRS) is a descriptive label given to a constellation of difficulties with predominating features of refusal and rejection of help across several domains - walking, talking, eating, drinking and self-care. The severity of the presentation is often life threatening. It is a contested diagnosis, with debate regarding both its diagnostic specificity and aetiology. 

Despite the fact that management almost always requires extensive input from a multi-disciplinary team (MDT) at a tertiary level of care, there is considerable opacity surrounding what constitutes an effective intervention. This research is the first to qualitatively analyse the understandings and perspectives of professionals, from a range of disciplines, who have experience of working with children and young people given a label of PRS. The overarching research question is: what are the understandings and perspectives of treating professionals working with children and young people who have been given the clinical diagnosis of PRS?

Semi-structured interviews were used with eleven participants who had experience of working with presentations termed PRS in an inpatient psychiatric service. Thematic analysis yielded three core themes: Making Sense, Uncertainty and Our way. 

The findings expand on previous literature regarding clinical management with this population. They add new insights to the area, contribute towards practice-based evidence and inform service development. Recommendations are clearly outlined with the aim of increasing consistency, coherence and confidence amongst services working with this population. These include the need to facilitate strong therapeutic relationships with both individuals and their families, enable consistent and clear communication amongst teams and establish novel clinical networks. Theoretical and research recommendations, which widen the lens and draw together different frameworks, are also suggested as a means of developing a more holistic paradigm to understand the distress.
title: How and Why Young People Use Social Media in Relation to Self Harm and to What Effect?

description: Social media use and self-harm prevalence are both highest among young people. Many explanatory models of self-harm have been proposed which are helpful in understanding the functions self-harm serve. Social media is a relatively new phenomenon requiring further research to increase understanding of the psychological processes associated with its use. The connection between self-harm and social media has received increased media attention in recent years and is of clinical and social importance. The current study intended to increase the understanding of the connection between the two phenomena. Seven females in mid-adolescence accessing a DBT service were interviewed about their use of social media in relation to self-harm. Their interviews were analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Data analysis led to the identification of four super-ordinate themes, extension of everyday social media use, unexpected pitfalls; expected benefits and misunderstandings: “unless you’re part of it, you wouldn’t understand it”. The findings suggest that social media is used in a number of ways in relation to self-harm and its use is frequently an extension of the way young people use social media more generally. This is influenced by many factors. Its use can lead to pitfalls and benefits and navigating between the two is difficult and can be misunderstood by others. The consideration of the findings in relation to the wider research context has increased knowledge about the use of social media in relation to self-harm within this population. Clinical implications and recommendations for future research are suggested.
title: Contesting Europeanism: Discourses and Practices of Pro-migrant  Organisations in the European Union
Creators: name: Cantat, Celine
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: This study investigates the practices and discourses of groups and networks supporting migrants in the context of the construction of the European Union (EU) and the Europeanisation of immigration and border controls. Its main objectives are: (1) to engage in critical examination of the European political project and the discourse of European belonging that has sustained its construction and consolidation; (2) to observe whether novel contentious practices have emerged to respond to multi-scalar developments associated with harmonisation of immigration-related policies; and (3) to investigate narratives of pro-migrant groups and networks.
The project mobilises ethnographic research focused on pro-migrant organisations and networks in three European Union member states: France, Italy and the United Kingdom. It analyses testimony from participants involved in solidarity initiatives and assesses their perspectives on Europe and European belonging.
This study draws on insights from a range of disciplines including Political Science, International Relations, Security Studies, Historical Sociology and Migration Studies. It embraces an historical approach to European construction and an analysis of global influences upon the development of the EU. It addresses the tensions and conflicts that arise when national, supranational and global processes take their effect upon the European project, and the specific impacts in the area of migration and bordering.
This project concludes that a transnational pro-migrant movement is in formation in the EU. It is characterised by intensified cooperation and communication across borders, the development of new crossborder activist tools and tactics, increasingly complex transnational networks and the formulation of a mutually comprehensible analysis of the EU border regime. Yet this movement-in-formation has not been articulated and integrated around alternative visions of Europe and European identity. I argue that this is due to tensions and contradictions generated by the European project and I develop a critical reflection about processes of European construction and the production of ideas about Europe
title: Voice, Power and Trust a Critical Exploration of the Factors Facilitating Student Voice within a Secure Training Centre
Creators: name: Cook, Timothy
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: This study is concerned with exploring issues relating to voice, power and trust for trainees within a Secure Training Centre, whilst those trainees participated in an evening activities programme in 2009.
Classes were led by myself twice a week and attended by groups of up to eight trainees, plus their secure care officers. The trainees were vulnerable adolescent males who had either committed crimes or were remanded in custody. As part of these classes, the trainees had the opportunity to share their perspectives on a variety of topics. This occurred through both traditional research methods and a variety of innovative techniques, such as the use of wireless keyboards to facilitate a text based dialogue across a range of topic headings. Over a period of time, trust was built and insights explored.
In my research I have made use of a hybrid approach, borrowing insights from Critical Ethnography and Practitioner Research. By doing so, I have attempted to show that through a critical approach to power and ideology, the provision of opportunities for young people to express their insights can lead to various positive outcomes. By combining critical ideas with those typically associated with Practitioner Research, it has been possible to reflect on my own practice to improve outcomes for young people.
This thesis is an exciting exploration of how young people, held within secure accommodation, react to the opportunity of expressing their views. It is relevant because it explores the perspectives and empowerment of young people who have been incarcerated, an area which is recognised as being profoundly challenging.

title: What can be learned from comparing a Child Psychotherapist's Experience of a Children's Psychotherapy Group with Narrative Accounts of Foster Carers Describing the Same Children in their Care?
Creators: name: Chester, Christine
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: This research project explores a child psychotherapist’s experience of a children’s psychotherapy group with five, infant school age, ‘looked after children’ with early experiences of neglect, trauma and disruption. These children have experiences of multiple placements either in their family of origin or since coming into care. They are all in transition awaiting decisions about future adoptive or long-term foster placements.
The research project considers the experiences of both the children and their foster carers. It asks what can be learned from comparing a child psychotherapist’s experience of the children in a children’s psychotherapy group with the narrative accounts of foster carers describing the same children in their care? With this question in mind, the research project uses a ten-week children’s psychotherapy group and semi-structured interviews with the children’s foster carers to examine the relationships these children form within the group and with their foster carers.
The research project aims to capture the emotional experience of being with young ‘looked after children’, living in foster care and awaiting decisions regarding placement and the prospect of yet further placement moves. The study reflects on whether gathering information on the foster carer’s experience would be useful in planning future support for both the children and their foster carers. Do these comparisons provide valuable information that helps facilitate decision-making within the professional networks maintaining both the children and their foster carers?

title: Experience of parents whose children with autism spectrum disorder are starting primary school.
Creators: name: Connolly, Micaela Maria
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: The transition to school is considered a key event in a child’s life. It is also a major event in their parents’ lives. Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are considered to be particularly vulnerable in the transition process because of their difficulties with social communication, social interaction and change. Transition programmes that facilitate the child in starting school naturally focus on the child’s needs but a review of the literature revealed little research into the experiences of parents whose children with ASD were starting school. In this study, a qualitative method, Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), was used to explore the perceptions and experiences of parents whose young children with ASD were starting school in September 2013. Interviews with six participants were transcribed and analysed and examined individually. A cross-case analysis revealed three common overarching themes which reflected their experiences of the transition process and their interactions with other people in the child’s life. These include ‘I think they need to believe, believe what we’re telling them’, ‘Experience of ASD: It’s a very labelling thing’ and ‘Preparing for school and feelings about the future’. Key findings which add to the literature on this under-researched topic are described and implications are discussed with particular reference to the role of the educational psychologist in facilitating optimal outcomes for parents of children with ASD in the transition process.
title: Financial Inclusion and Livelihood Dynamics: Evidence from Northeast Rural Bangladesh
Creators: name: Choudhury, Mohammad Sadiqunnabi
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: The study focuses on rural livelihoods in the northeast region of Bangladesh highlighting two important aspects: household strategies and financial intervention. It uses participatory methods and quantitative evidence to understand the livelihood dynamics and the extent of financial inclusion in livelihood securities. In the broader context of vulnerability, the study focuses particularly on vulnerability to risk related shocks and the strategic uses of livelihood assets in combating such risks. The livelihood strategies include income-generating activities, risk coping strategies and the role of institutions in confronting vulnerability. Households develop coping and adaptation strategies to manage risks using various resources available. Strengthening the capacity often needs resilience building with self-efforts and external interventions in order to nullify the impacts of shocks and hazards.
Given the vulnerability context, the study investigates how rural people deal with risks to achieve livelihood securities. Findings show that rural people handle minor risks by self-insurance mechanism including cash on hand and household savings. They manage intermediate risks through community or market-based arrangements including borrowing from moneylender or MFIs. For major risks such as flood and cyclone, they often urge for government or donor support. Household’s coping capacity depends on the appropriateness of risk management tools and strength of the households (resilient, weak or fragile). Adaptation and resilience to risks largely depend on household’s resource base and external interventions. Financial inclusion is one of the major external interventions in rural livelihoods.
Rural people consider financial intermediation as avital instrument among available livelihood interventions. However, actual role of financial instruments is underutilized, as financial inclusion is incomplete in rural areas. This research identifies some financial inclusion gaps in the northeast rural Bangladesh. To minimise inclusion gaps, the study recommends raising the scale and outreach of banking and financial services through cost-effective means such as agent banking or mobile financial services (MFS). There are potential barriers to those technology-led financial services. For sustainable livelihood security, rural people need these obstacles eliminated.
