title: How do Criminal Defence Barristers Work with Psychological Distress throughout the Courtroom Process?
Creators: name: Kelly, Lynsey
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: Whilst a significant proportion of those coming through the Magistrates’ Court have mental health difficulties and associated social disadvantage and vulnerability, there would appear to insufficient resources to meet their needs. Eight criminal defence barristers, who received no professional training in mental health, were interviewed about their experience of working with these clients. Thematic analysis of data, from a critical realist epistemological position, generated two themes. “Working with clients’ mental health difficulties” describes how mental health is constructed, identified, and defended; the systemic issues that may compromise the defence; barristers’ attempts to mitigate harm and manage distress; and finally, barristers’ own distress. “Professional anxiety” captures how barristers are strained by their recognition of a flawed system; conflicting obligations to the court and their client; and pressures of poor resources, feeling very responsible, and needing to present an illusion of confidence.
A discussion of these results included consideration of the potential for a medicalising narrative to lead to legal paternalism (subjugating the client’s autonomy in an attempt to act in their “best interests”); and the deprivation of defence options; possibly representing unintended human rights violations. Barristers found clients with mental health needs were particularly emotionally taxing, desired training to work with them, and suggested that these clients were vulnerable to wider discrimination and inequalities in the criminal justice system. Concerns were raised by the barristers’ significant risk factors for “burnout” (a state of psychological stress), and the implications of this for both their emotional well-being, and the risk of exposing their clients to financially driven unethical behaviour. Systemic changes, informed by clinical psychology, were recommended, including training for barristers

title: That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore: Humour, Jokes and Their Relationship to Social Work
Creators: name: Jordan, Stephen
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: Humour can be seen as trivial, peripheral and even an affront to some people in
relation to the solemn business of social work. This thesis makes an original
contribution to social work practice and thought, by exploring the relationship between
jokes, humour and social work. Jokes are worthy data in themselves to study, and
humour is intrinsic to social life. This thesis draws on the extensive body of literature on
humour and the history of joke telling. Neither have been studied together in relation to
social work.
Exposing contradictions in complex social phenomena has a track record as a creative
way of knowing. The methodological approach taken reflects the qualitative nature of
humour and jokes, and the analysis employed combined psychoanalytic and thematic
approaches, in which “thematized meanings” were found across data sets.
Social work and social workers occupy a contradictory position in society. The findings
here indicate that humour and jokes provide a transitional space which helps social
workers manage the contradictions and ambivalences of their work. The jokes made
about social workers reflect a profession under attack, and the humour and jokes made
by social workers reveal the desire to convey their humanity and to create
relationships. Importantly my research shows that whilst there is a danger in humour
being used unethically, humour can help social workers attach to their teams and their
colleagues, and help build resilience, as a culture of humour within teams creates a
nurturing environment, with social workers who will be more likely to stay in the job.
Importantly as well humour can help facilitate relationships with service users, and
become a tool for service users and social workers to bond.
title: The Unemployment Agenda in Mental Health Services: The Therapist's Perspective
Creators: name: Khanom, Jusna
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: In recent years public policy and research has placed unemployment at the
forefront of designing and evaluating mental health services, which led to
support for development of the service model, Increasing Access to
Psychological Therapies (IAPT). Most of the research that has informed this
shift has explored the relationship between mental health and unemployment
from a positivist framework, which has provided a focus on describing the
psychological symptoms that people experience as a result of unemployment.
However, this research has been criticised for its limitation in ignoring the
causes and the context of unemployment. The aim of the study was to explore
the impact of the change in emphasis on unemployment for therapists practice,
the ideas they draw on to inform their work, and how therapists manage any
potential conflicts. A critical realist approach was used to explore these aims
with seven therapists working in IAPT services. In drawing on a critical realist
approach, the study was interested in exploring the relationship between a
number of phenomena: materiality (e.g. the reality of the nature of available
employment), institutional practices (e.g. government policies) and social
discourses (e.g. therapists understanding of the causes of unemployment). The
data from the interviews were analysed using thematic analysis. The first theme
indicated that the service context raised a number of challenges for therapists;
theme two described therapists opposition to the employment agenda; theme
three explained how therapists managed conflicts between their personal and
professional perspectives by using the employment agenda minimally and
complying with the demands on an administrative level; and, finally, theme four
described the approaches that therapists drew on to formulate client’s
difficulties with employment and its implications. The data was interpreted using
psychoanalytic and critical ideas in order understanding how therapists’
experienced and responded to the unemployment agenda of IAPT service
(Layton, 2009). The data was analysed by drawing on mechanisms of splitting,
denial and repression to explain societies and mental health services,
compliance, acceptance and support for political discourses that disadvantage
the most vulnerable within society (Layton, 2009). The implications of the
findings are discussed for practice, research, training and policy.
title: The Influence of Running Shoes on the Biomechanics of the Foot and Lower Limb
Creators: name: Langley, Ben
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: Running shoes are designed to reduce injury risk and enhance performance. In line with traditional running injury paradigms running shoes aim to reduce the magnitude and/or rate of foot motion and impact loading. While numerous studies have explored the influence of different shoe modifications upon these parameters, limited work has explored how different types of conventional running shoe influence foot and lower limb kinematics. Therefore the overarching aim of this thesis was to determine the influence of different types of running shoe on shod foot and lower limb motion during running.
Twenty-eight active males (26 ± 7years, 1.77 ± 0.05m, 79 ± 9kg) participated in the main phase of testing. Participants ran in three types of running shoe (motion control, neutral and cushioned) at a self-selected pace, on a treadmill. Three-dimensional lower limb and inter-segmental foot kinematics were calculated from the position of retro-reflective markers tracked by a VICON motion analysis system. Incisions were made within the right shoe to accommodate direct tracking of shod foot motion. The incision parameters were validated in preliminary work. One-way repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Freidman’s ANOVA were used to explore differences between footwear conditions.
Significant differences in lower limb and foot kinematics were reported at the knee, ankle, midfoot-rearfoot, forefoot-rearfoot and medial longitudinal arch (MLA). Motion control shoes significantly reduced midfoot-rearfoot eversion and MLA deformation compared to neutral and cushioned shoes. Cushioned shoes significantly reduced ankle joint eversion compared to the motion control shoe.
The findings of this thesis provide novel information regarding the influence of motion control, neutral and cushioned running shoes upon foot and lower limb kinematics, and further develop means of modelling the shod foot. Overall the findings of this thesis demonstrate the efficacy of running shoes to reduce the magnitude of foot motion.
title: The Male Muse: Intimacy, Distance and Touch
Creators: name: Mathias, Nerys
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: This thesis considers my journey and accomplishments as an artist through a doctoral program of research. The writing explicates my intentions and observations of making work and showing it and the relation between the two. 

The first chapter Witnessing Woman begins with images of men by women. My research led me to the writing of Luce Irigaray and ideas of productive mimesis seen through a filter of the witnessing woman. Elizabeth Peyton’s portraits are considered and links are made between Irigaray and Pipilotti Rist. The nude male is revisited.
The second chapter Gesture and Touch considers the connection between looking and touching.  I discuss the use of hands in the images of Alexis Hunter.
Intimacy and Distance links the strong gaze of Andalusian culture to the images of Sally Mann’s husband and to Cecily Brown’s sex themed paintings. I explore the male muse and the intimacy and distance involved.
The Intimacy of Age deals with the contradicting emotions of ageing that have entered my practice. The joys of finding a partner bring the anxiety of loss and death. 
The conclusion brings together two bodies of work for the final exhibition. Witnessing Woman is now a body of photographic work exposing the everyday complexities within a loving relationship. The gaze slips between lover, friend and vulnerable other.
Touched-Up has been transformed to be photographic sculptures of exquisite and dying flowers as well as hand gestures and darkness that invite the viewer to be consumed with western culture's complex response to age.
title: Abstract Painting and the Aesthetics of Moderation
Creators: name: Lee, Kang-Wook
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: The journey of this research began with exploring the notion of invisible space which cannot be perceived by the human eye, and the process of image visualisation expressed through my abstract paintings, which is supported by my theoretical research. ‘Invisible Space’, the title of one of my recent paintings, evokes the notion of a very small space such as a cell or nerve tissues which form part of the human body and have the potential to simultaneously symbolise a cosmological space.
In my practice, I adopt painting as a pertinent method to realise my subjects and motifs. I consider how my painting is situated in contemporary art theory and practice by exploring artists and writers relevant to my underlying concept. I explore how my subject is presented in painting and drawing, and how my research can be developed logically and systematically in response to my practice. In this report, I analyse the three key elements: 1) abstraction that explores macro & micro space; 2) colour experiments and 3) cultural traditions and gesture through Korean Monochrome painting.
title: Clinical Psychologists' Constructions of Insight in Adult Mental Health
Creators: name: Moynihan, Manus
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: Insight is a term used in adult mental heath to try to think about and understand how service users’ understand their difficulties. There has been a growth in interest in its potential use in practice. This has led to the development of multiple theories and scales. Research in this area has yielded a vast array of results. Although to date, this enterprise has yielded inconsistent results. While the various insight theories implicate different factors in their models, there is convergence on three recurrent themes: acceptance of mental illness, agreement with treatment, and ability to label experiences as pathological.
However, insight in adult mental health is a term that is often used but rarely
defined. This research took a social constructionist stance to explore the way insight is deployed by clinical psychologists in practice. It sought to explore the degree to which ideas about insight are used in practice. Conversely it also looked to explore if insight was not used what, if any, analogous psychological theories were deployed in their day-to-day work. The research actively explored a variety of contexts in which clinical psychologists might encounter “insight talk” and how they negotiate these contexts.
Nine clinical psychologists working in a variety of adult mental health services within one NHS trust were recruited. Semi-structured interviews were used to explore if, and how, insight is used. The transcripts were analysed using a mixed design of Discursive Psychology and Foucauldian Discourse Analysis.
The results suggest that insight and analogous terms are used at different levels of practice. In terms of service user contact (micro-politics) “insight talk” considered insight as psy-model, narrative insight, and formulation. In discussion with colleagues (meso-politics), psychologists constructed their colleagues “insight”. At a system level (macro-politics) psychologists constructed systems as lacking insight and the promotion of a psychologically minded workforce.

title: Enhanced Performance Bidirectional Quasi-Z-Source Inverter Controller
Creators: name: Latifi, Hojjat
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: A novel direct control of high performance bidirectional quasi-Z-source inverter (HPB-QZSI), with optimized controllable shoot-through insertion, to improve the voltage gain, efficiency and to reduce total harmonic distortion is investigated.
The main drawback of the conventional control techniques for direct current to alternating current (DC-AC) conversion is drawn from the multistage energy conversion structure, which implies complicated control, protection algorithms and reduced reliability due to the increased number of switching devices.
Theoretically, the original Z-source, Quasi-Z-source, and embedded Z-source all have unlimited voltage gain. Practically, however, a high voltage gain (>2 or 3), will result in a high voltage stress imposed on the switches.
Every additional shoot-through state increases the commutation time of the semiconductor switches, thereby increasing the switching losses in the system. Hence, minimization of the commutation time by optimal placing of the shoot-through state in the switching time period is necessary to reduce the switching loss. To overcome this problem, a combination of high performance bidirectional quasi-Z-source inverter with a sawtooth carrier based sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) in simple operation condition for maximum boost control with 3rd harmonic injection is proposed. This is achieved by voltage-fed quasi-Z-source inverter with continuous input current, implemented at the converter input side which
can boost the input voltage by utilizing the extra switching state with the help of shoot-through state insertion technique.
This thesis presents novel control concepts for such a structure, focusing mainly on the control of a shoot-through insertion. The work considers the derivation and application of direct controllers for this application and scrutinizes the technical advantages and potential application issues of these methodologies.
Based on the circuit analysis, a small signal model of the HPB-QZSI is derived, which indicates that the circuit is prone to oscillate when there is disturbance on the direct current (DC) input voltage. Therefore, a closed-loop control of shoot-through duty cycle is designed to obtain the desired DC bus voltage. The DC-link boost control and alternating current (AC) side output control are presented to reduce the impacts of disturbances on loads.
The proposed strategy gives a significantly high voltage gain compared to the conventional pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques, since all the zero states are converted into shoot-through states. The simulated results verify the validity and superiority of the proposed control strategies.
title: Unconscious Processes in Multi-Agency Partnership Working For Protecting and Safeguarding Children: A Psychoanalytic Examination of the Conception and Development of A Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub (Mash) Project in an Inner London Local Authority
Creators: name: Madembo, Claudious
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: This study was set within the context of child protection and safeguarding in an inner city local authority. Its main aim was to explore the unconscious processes experienced by organizational representatives when co-located to provide multi- agency partnership work in children services. It acknowledged that a lot has been written about the rational challenges to multi-agency work. It then took a different dimension which focussed on the ‘beneath the surface’ issues in partnership work. The main research question was; whether an understanding and consideration of the emotional and the unconscious processes in organisations is the missing link in strengthening multi agency partnership working in safeguarding and protecting vulnerable children and their families.
Qualitative data from a two year ethnographic study is presented which was obtained using three research techniques; psychoanalytic informed participant observation, interviews and institutional documentary sources. The observations and narratives from the research participants provided a framework for exploring emotional experiences of being ‘an individual, a professional and an organizational being’ within an organization, interacting between and amongst others in a group and different subgroups.
The research confirmed the presence of unconscious processes at work which centred on individual and organizational defences. It revealed that multi-agency partnerships are often the context for a range of complex interactions between and amongst individual, professional and organizational aspects of working together. It also confirmed that collaborative structures need to foster boundary negotiation capabilities in order to sustain the survival of the partnerships. Traditional organisational and professional roles and general government prescriptions also need to adapt to new and challenging social problems and come up with context specific solutions.

title: The Effect of Isokinectic Exercise on Biofluid Matrices as Measured by 1H NMR Spectroscopy
Creators: name: Lyons, Alexander
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: The biochemical basis of muscle function during stress imposed by isokinetic exercise has mainly focused on measuring muscle proteins (CK and myoglobin) and lactate present in the blood plasma, whereas the range of low-molecular weight metabolites during muscular stress has received limited attention. This study investigated the effect of concentric isokinetic exercise of the knee extensor and flexor muscles (functional to standing, walking and running), at 80% and 40%MVC intensities of equal workloads, on saliva, urine and blood serum matrices. A hypothesis-free approach was employed to mathematically determine, by chemometrics, which untargeted metabolites measured by 1H NMR spectroscopy are altered in response to muscular exercise of this nature.
The results demonstrate that the saliva matrix is highly susceptible to 1H NMR spectral interference from salivette exposure (a routine method of saliva collection in sports/exercise) with 1H resonances arising throughout the spectrum, exceeding the affected spectral region of δ 3-4 documented in the literature. Short-chain organic acids (lactate, acetate, n-butyrate and formate) and N-acetyl sugars were the strongest discriminators of saliva sampled pre- and post-exercise. However, the origin of these metabolites is equivocal since bacterial metabolism and salivary gland secretion via exercise stimulation of the autonomic nervous system both contribute towards salivary composition. Urinary citrate, glycine and hippurate exhibited a decrease following isokinetic exercise, whereas trimethylamine N-oxide increased. According to the literature, this pattern has previously been associated with kidney stress on the renal papilla and tubules from the filtration of myoglobin protein from the blood which accumulates as a result of leakage from the muscle membrane during stress or injury. Thus, these urinary biomolecular markers may reflect renal filtration of muscle proteins present in the blood following exercise and may be indirectly representative of isokinetic exercise-induced muscular stress. The serum matrix was less sensitive to exercise-induced change than urine in this isokinetic intervention study, since the homeostasis of blood is maintained by the renal system.
Further work is needed to cross-validate conventional assays used to measure biomarkers of muscular stress with the metabolomics platform to confirm that urinary trimethylamine N-oxide, citrate, glycine and hippurate are indirect biomolecular markers of muscular exercise. In sports medicine, NMR-urinalysis may provide diagnostic and prognostic information on injured and recovering athletes to determine whether or not they are fit to play, and predict risk of injury based on their current state of health.

title: Schizophrenia-like Cognitive, Trait and DNA Markers in Regular Cannabis Users
Creators: name: Lynch, Stephanie Marie
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: Rationale: Converging evidence suggests that cannabis use can induce psychosis and is a distinct risk factor for schizophrenia. Taken together with the effects of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) on neural systems, dopamine and endocannabinoids it is likely that cannabis use may also produce sub- clinical psychosis-linked changes in a much larger number of regular recreational users; observable in schizophrenia-sensitive assessments. Use of the drug by individuals with genetic risk factors for schizophrenia appears to magnify the chances of pathology, and so changes in recreational users with one or more of these genetic markers may be more evident or pronounced.
Method: 50 cannabis users and 50 non cannabis users were assessed in each of two studies. Study one assessed selective attention in the Latent Inhibition (LI) and Kamin Blocking (KB) paradigms and examined schizophrenia-linked traits using the short form of the Schizotypal Personality Questionnaire (the SPQ-B; Raine and Benishay, 1995). Study two assessed executive control (using an Anti-Saccade Test), decision-making (using the Iowa Gambling Task), and selective/sustained attention and inhibitory control (Continuous Performance Test). Study two included additional personality measures to explore paranoia, emotional processing, ambivalence and impulsivity. Across both studies, the relative contribution of seven genetic risk markers in five candidate genes for schizophrenia (DAOA, COMT, NRG1, FAAH and CNR1) were assessed.
Key Results: Cannabis use was associated with abolished latent inhibition and significantly riskier decision making, especially in those who used the drug more frequently. Cannabis users reported significantly higher scores for psychosis-linked personality traits and there was a dose-response effect with heavier users experiencing more of these schizotypal traits. Some key trends existed in the genotyping data for the cannabis group. The psychosis-risk C allele in the NRG1 gene was linked to higher SPQ-B scores and more errors on the AST; and was also associated with longer use of cannabis. Cannabis users without the protective three-way T-G-G haplotype COMT gene had higher scores for the SPQ-B disorganised thinking subscale than users with the protective haplotype.
Discussion: The data in this thesis suggests that cannabis users are showing differences in brain inhibitory function and decision-making akin to previous research with schizophrenic patients, their first degree relatives and high schizotypy scorers. Exposure to THC may contribute to changes in individuals by pushing them further along a schizophrenia-spectrum resulting in the display of more psychotic-like traits and cognitive dysfunction at sub-clinical levels. These preliminary findings need expansion and replication, particularly with regards to the COMT three-way haplotype.

Year: 2020
Subjects: Climate change, Climate change adaptation, Climate resilience, urban planning, traffic infrastructure planning

description: This is the first webinar in the CLARITY for Climate Resilience (Clarity4CR) webinar series. It introduces the series as well as the CLARITY project proposition for optimizing the climate change adaptation planning process: the Climate Services Marketplace, standardized workflow for expert studies, automated screening workflows and the climate adaptation data that was produced by the project. Clarity4CR webinar series aims to bring together the climate experts, companies offering the climate adaptation solutions, city/regional planners, project managers and owners of the vulnerable urban and traffic infrastructure. The webinars will be co-organised with other research projects and organisations interested in #climateresilience, #climatechangeimpacts, #climatechangeadaptation and #climateadaptation and cover the following topics: "Climate Services Marketplace" webinars presenting the tools and services for climate change adaptations as well as experience the online portal myclimateservices.eu. "Climate impact check - In my region" webinars presenting the findings of various regional Climate Change studies. "Climate Adaptation Policy & Technology" webinars discussing the Climate Change Adaptation policy and the tools and services that will help addressing the policy requirements in the EU, its member states and regions. Tentative schedule of the CLARITY4CR webinars is weekly, every Thursday 10:00-11:00 CET, starting from June the 11-th 2020. Most webinars will target the participants with professional interest in the Climate Change Adaptation, but we intend to also organise occasional webinars for the general public as well as have webinars for specific audience from companies, municipalities and other organizations.

Interplay between reactive oxygen species and autophagy in the course of age-related macular degeneration

description: Pathological biomolecules such as lipofuscin, methylglyoxal-modified proteins (the major precursors of advanced glycationend products), misfolding protein deposits and dysfunctional mitochondria are source of oxidative stress and act as strong autophagic stimulators in age-related macular degeneration. Disturbed autophagy accelerates progression of the disease, since it leads to retinal cells’ death and activates inflammation by the interplay with the NLRP3 inflammasome complex. Vascular dysfunction and hypoxia, as well as circulating autoantibodies against autophagy regulators (anti-S100A9, anti-ANXA5, and anti-HSPA8, A9 and B4) compromise an autophagy-mediated mechanism as well. Metformin, the autophagic stimulator, may act as a senostatic drug to inhibit the senescent phenotype in the age-related macular degeneration. PGC-1α , Sirt1 and AMPK represent new therapeutic targets for interventions in this disease.

title: Muslim identity, ‘Neo-Islam’ and the 1992-95 War in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Creators: name: Osmanovic, Sheila
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2015

description: Following the fall of the Berlin Wall, Yugoslavia was entangled in a fratricidal break-up. In

none of the other former Yugoslav republics did the conflict turn as violent as in Bosnia and 
Herzegovina, which suffered genocide, the greatest number of victims and the highest percentage of 
infrastructural destruction. Although its three ethnic communities – Muslims, Serbs and Croats – 
were previously well integrated, the break-up of Yugoslavia exposed Bosnia’s unique Islamic 
component, which both Serbs and Croats perceived to be the major impediment to the continuation of 
a pluralistic society. Islam, however, only turned into a divisive and decisive factor in the 
conflict when combined with ethnic nationalism. Previous research into the causes of the 1992-95 
war in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the break-up of Yugoslavia has identified Bosnia’s long Islamic 
heritage and large Muslim population on the doorstep of Europe as specific features influencing 
both its rationale and resolution. Yet there has been no analysis of the role and impact of 
‘neo-Islam’ (a term I explained below) in the conflict – an omission this thesis seeks to redress. 
The thesis uses historical analysis to demonstrate that Bosnia and Herzegovina was frequently 
subject to international intervention during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, it explores 
whether the unique Islamic component was the reason behind this phenomenon, and seeks to comprehend 
why Bosnia and Herzegovina has always appeared to pose a problem for the international community, 
from the papal persecutions of the medieval Bogumils through to the present day.
