description: Remarquer les différents types de collations (plus ou moins sains) que les enfants pouvaient consommer lors des récréations et l’intérêt que nous portons à la nutrition, nous ont conduit à réaliser un travail sur l’éducation nutritionnelle. Nous avons choisi de mettre en place une séquence d’éducation nutritionnelle dans des classes de 1-2P et de tester son efficacité. Notre mémoire est une recherche quantitative, nous avons analysé le type de collations consommées par des élèves de 1-2P et leurs connaissances au sujet des collations saines avant, pendant et après la séquence. Pour ce faire, à trois reprises (avant, pendant et après la séquence), nous avons pris en photo les récréations consommées par nos élèves et nous avons fait remplir à la classe un questionnaire au sujet des collations saines. Nous avons inventé une séquence d’éducation nutritionnelle que nous avons donnée dans nos classes. Elle est composée de différents modules traitant : de la pyramide alimentaire, du sucre dans les boissons et des collations saines. Nous avons clos notre séquence par l’envoi d’une vidéo aux parents afin de les inclure dans le projet. Suite à cette séquence, nous avons comparé les différents résultats obtenus afin d’observer si notre séquence avait eu un effet sur nos élèves. Notre recherche nous a permis de démontrer l’importance du rôle des parents dans l’éducation nutritionnelle et a aussi montré un impact important sur les conceptions des élèves à court et à long terme. Finalement, elle nous a permis de prendre conscience des différentes pistes d’amélioration possible afin d’optimiser notre séquence.

description: We describe a simple mechanical system, a ball rolling along a specially-designed landscape, that mimics the dynamics of a well known phenomenon, the two-bounce resonance of solitary wave collisions, that has been seen in countless numerical simulations but never in the laboratory. We provide a brief history of the solitary wave problem, stressing the fundamental role collective-coordinate models played in understanding this phenomenon. We derive the equations governing the motion of a point particle confined to such a surface and then design a surface on which to roll the ball, such that its motion will evolve under the same equations that approximately govern solitary wave collisions. We report on physical experiments, carried out in an undergraduate applied mathematics course, that seem to verify one aspect of chaotic scattering, the so-called two-bounce resonance.

The Peaceful Coexistence of Ethics and Quantitative Research
Creators: name: Edwards, Jeffrey R.
Publisher: name: Springer Nature
Year: 2019

description:
This essay concerns the extent to which quantitative research (QR) in management and organizational studies is divorced from ethics, as alleged in a recent JBE editorial by Zyphur and Pierides (2017). After carefully examining the criticisms set forth by Zyphur and Pierides and the merits of the alternative they propose, I conclude that the problems with QR and the researchers who conduct it are arguably much less extreme that Zyphur and Pierides claim. This conclusion is informed by a sampling of QR studies recently published in management journals, which could be further corroborated by a more thorough review and evaluation of QR studies using principles drawn from the ethics literature. I believe this assessment would indicate that, despite room for improvement, QR and ethics can and do peacefully coexist, and quantitative researchers are largely aware of the problems and opportunities associated with integrating their work with ethics.

Nuclear astrophysics: the unfinished quest for the origin of the elements

description: Half a century has passed since the foundation of nuclear astrophysics. Since then, this discipline has reached its maturity. Today, nuclear astrophysics constitutes a multidisciplinary crucible of knowledge that combines the achievements in theoretical astrophysics, observational astronomy,  cosmochemistry and nuclear physics. New tools and developments have revolutionized our understanding of the origin of the elements: supercomputers have provided astrophysicists with the required computational capabilities to study the evolution of stars in a multidimensional framework; the emergence of high-energy astrophysics with space-borne observatories has opened new windows to observe the Universe, from a novel panchromatic perspective; cosmochemists have isolated tiny pieces of stardust embedded in primitive meteorites, giving clues on the processes operating in stars as well as on the way matter condenses to form solids; and nuclear physicists have measured reactions near stellar energies, through the combined efforts using stable and radioactive ion beam facilities. This review provides comprehensive insight into the nuclear history of the Universe and related topics: starting from the Big Bang, when the ashes from the primordial explosion were transformed to hydrogen, helium, and few trace elements, to the rich variety of nucleosynthesis mechanisms and sites in the Universe. Particular attention is paid to the hydrostatic processes governing the evolution of low-mass stars, red giants and asymptotic giant-branch stars, as well as to the explosive nucleosynthesis occurring in core-collapse and thermonuclear supernovae, γ-ray bursts, classical novae, X-ray bursts, superbursts, and stellar mergers.

An Ethnographic Perspective on Teachers-as-Designers in Video Conference Pedagogy: A Matter of Craft, Ethics and Identity
Creators: name: Kidd, Warren
Publisher: name: The School of Education and Communities, University of East London
Year: 2019

description: This paper adopts an ethnographic perspective to explore teachers-as-designers in the use of Video Conferencing technology for the teaching of English as an additional (foreign) language. The research explores the practices of teachers based in England synchronously teaching learners in South America. These colleagues are ‘remote teachers’ working in England but teaching alongside teachers and pupils in Brazil and Uruguay. The research contributes to debates in the field by framing teachers ‘as designers’ as issues of identity and ethics as much as issues of the pragmatics of planning and the philosophy of pedagogy. With fieldwork lasting for a six-month period, the mixed-methods ethnography collated data from classroom observation, semi-structured interviews and focus groups.

The position taken is that ‘designing’ technology-enhanced pedagogy is best understood as enacted and embodied (Merleau-Ponty, 1962) within broader teacher practice as a whole. The significance of this is that in exploring the design decisions of teachers this research creates an ethnographically driven space which addresses issues of ‘craft’, practice, ethics and identity as well as the professional development and support needed for new teachers-as-designers. In adopting a position of ‘teacher-as-designer’, in terms of the skilful and informed preparation of learning technology, this research re-frames ‘design’ as a matter of teachers as craft-practitioners. In this reframing, the research adopts the conceptual lens of Sennett (2008) and explores the notion of the pleasure and ethics inherent in craft/design practice.

Through this lens, design work is both craft-work and identity-work. This positions teachers-as-designers as agents of global educational change – offering through their ‘craft’ practices a potential solution to problems of global teacher shortage.

description: To help prevent hardware security vulnerabilities from propagating to later design stages where fixes are costly, it is crucial to identify security concerns as early as possible, such as in RTL designs. In this work, we investigate the practical implications and feasibility of producing a set of security-specific scanners that operate on Verilog source files. The scanners indicate parts of code that might contain one of a set of MITRE's common weakness enumerations (CWEs). We explore the CWE database to characterize the scope and attributes of the CWEs and identify those that are amenable to static analysis. We prototype scanners and evaluate them on 11 open source designs - 4 system-on-chips (SoC) and 7 processor cores - and explore the nature of identified weaknesses. Our analysis reported 53 potential weaknesses in the OpenPiton SoC used in Hack@DAC-21, 11 of which we confirmed as security concerns.
The Puzzling Spectrum of HD 94509

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The spectral features of HD 94509 are highly unusual, adding an extreme to the zoo of Be and shell stars. The shell dominates the spectrum, showing lines typical for spectral types mid-A to early-F, while the presence of a late/mid B-type central star is indicated by photospheric hydrogen line wings and helium lines. Numerous metallic absorption lines have broad wings but taper to narrow cores. They cannot be fit by Voigt profiles. We aim to describe and illustrate unusual spectral features of this star, and make rough calculations to estimate physical conditions and abundances in the shell. Furthermore, the central star is characterized. We assume mean conditions for the shell. An electron density estimate is made from the Inglis-Teller formula. Excitation temperatures and column densities for Fe I and Fe II are derived from curves of growth. The neutral H column density is estimated from high Paschen members. The column densities are compared with calculations made with the photoionization code Cloudy. Atmospheric parameters of the central star are constrained employing non-LTE spectrum synthesis. Overall chemical abundances are close to solar. Column densities of the dominant ions of several elements, as well as excitation temperatures and the mean electron density are well accounted for by a simple model. Several features, including the degree of ionization, are less well described. HD 94509 is a Be star with a stable shell, close to the terminal-age main sequence. The dynamical state of the shell and the unusually shaped, but symmetric line profiles, require a separate study.

Seminar Capital: An Exploration of the Enduring Social and Pedagogical Benefits of Seminar Engagement
Creators: name: Le Voguer, Michelle

Publisher: name: The School of Education and Communities, University of East London
Year: 2020

description: This article presents findings from a small-scale qualitative case study exploring how engagement with seminars might prompt a sense of community amongst students. Further, it considered if such engagement might afford students ‘seminar capital’, a form of academic social capital (Bourdieu 1977 in Preece 2010). The study also aimed to uncover how seminar pedagogy can support students to develop their academic voice and connect with others in learning communities. Reflecting on emergent learning (Bourner 2003) supports students to move between a range of language codes (Preece 2010). Students in the study reported that seminar discussions supported their conceptual understanding, consolidated their academic language skills and offered opportunities to apply their knowledge to their assessments. This took place within an emerging positioning of relationships between peers and lecturers.

Potentially Morally Injurious Experiences (PMIEs) in the Humanitarian Sector: The Role of Moral Expectations
Creators: name: Truman, J.

Publisher: name: Living Refugee Archive, University of East London
Year: 2023

description: There is growing evidence that Moral Injury (MI), which is commonly understood to be the result of failing to prevent, witnessing, or participating in an event which transgresses peoples’ moral beliefs, may affect those working in inherently stressful contexts, such as the humanitarian field. Humanitarian work frequently involves challenges of an ethically or morally distressing nature. Research which aimed to determine whether unpaid humanitarian aid workers supporting displaced people in Calais and Dunkirk, Northern France, were exposed to Potentially Morally Injurious Experiences (PMIEs), is presented. Thematic Analysis (TA) was used to examine the narratives of 7 participants who discussed experiences that transgressed their moral beliefs while volunteering, as well as the emotional effects of those experiences. The data suggested that the participants may have been exposed to PMIEs. This finding has important implications for the mental health and psychosocial support needs of both paid and unpaid humanitarian aid workers, and could inform interventions by international and national Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) working in similar, contexts. The data was re-examined with a focus on feelings of guilt and shame and questions of identity and morality, sometimes called existential crises, which are understood to adversely affect mental health wellbeing.
Shifting Gears: Exploring the Dynamics of China's Energy Market Transition towards Renewable Energy Integration

description: Climate change is an existential threat to humanity and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is the primary driver of such a threat. Reducing GHG emissions has proved to be an intractable problem thus far given that most human productive activities result in GHG emissions. In particular, energy production accounts for ~70% of all GHG emissions globally.

In recent years, China has made several commitments to reducing its GHG emission and increase the share of its renewable energy. Such a position is quite different from its prior commitment and willingness to pursue economic growth regardless of the environmental costs. However, the magnitude of state-led investments and urgency of policy initiatives signal that China is quite serious in its endeavor to reach its climate goals.

Still, China's energy market has long been dominated by fossil fuels. The transition to a renewable driven energy market will inevitably encounter growing pains and obstacles, as evidenced by similar developments in the EU and China.

Displaced Voices is a biannual digital magazine produced twice a year by the Living Refugee Archive team at the University of East London. Displaced Voices aims to provide a digital platform for activists, archivists, researchers, practitioners and academics to contribute to issues pertaining to refugee and migration history; refugee and migrant rights; social justice; cultural heritage and archives. We welcome a range of contributions to the magazine including articles of between 1000-2000 words; reports on fieldwork in archival collections; book recommendations and reviews; and more creative pieces including (but not limited too) cartoons; photography; and poetry. We would also welcome news on activities; publication of reports, projects; letters and news from your own networks.

We welcome submissions from all writers whether you are a student, practitioner, activist or established academic. The Displaced Voices online magazine is born out of the collaborative and intersectional work that we have been undertaking through our work with the refugee and migration archives housed at the University of East London. Our work to date has explored the intersections of refugee and migration studies with narrative and life history research linked to oral history methods and archival approaches to the preservation, documentation and accessibility of archival resources recording the refugee experience.

This magazine is a collaborative project between the Living Refugee Archive at the University of East London; the Oral History Society Migration Special Interest Group and the International Association for the Study of Forced Migration Working Group on the History of Forced Migration and Refugees.

Thematically we are looking to engage with articles that explore the intersection of refugee and forced migration studies; history and cultural heritage studies; narrative research; oral history and archival science.

Steady off-diagonal long-range order state in a half-filled dimerized Hubbard chain induced by a resonant pulsed field

name: Song, Z.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We show that a resonant pulsed field can induce a steady superconducting state even in the deep Mott insulating phase of the dimerized Hubbard model. The superconductivity found here in the non-equilibrium steady state is due to the $η$-pairing mechanism, characterized by the existence of the off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO), and is absent in the ground-state phase diagram. The key of the scheme lies in the generation of the field-induced charge density wave (CDW) state that is from the valence bond solid. The dynamics of this state resides in the highly-excited subspace of dimerized Hubbard model and is dominated by a $η$-spin ferromagnetic model. The decay of such long-living excitation is suppressed because of energy conservation. We also develop a dynamical method to detect the ODLRO of the non-equilibrium steady state. Our finding demonstrates that the non-equilibrium many-body dynamics induced by the interplay between the resonant external field and electron-electron interaction is an alternative pathway to access a new exotic quantum state, and also provides an alternative mechanism for enhancing superconductivity.

Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS)

description: In this paper I explore how communication is used within a Senior Leadership Team (SLT) in a London secondary school. Effective communication can impact upon the ability of the leadership team to be aware of developments both internally and externally. It is suggested that communication either includes others in a shared conversation (illocutionary) or downward and excludes participation (prelocutionary). This paper suggests an illocutionary approach is more effective for distributed leadership.

Some Further Evidence about Magnification and Shape in Neural Gas

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Neural and Evolutionary Computing (cs.NE)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Neural gas (NG) is a robust vector quantization algorithm with a well-known mathematical model. According to this, the neural gas samples the underlying data distribution following a power law with a magnification exponent that depends on data dimensionality only. The effects of shape in the input data distribution, however, are not entirely covered by the NG model above, due to the technical difficulties involved. The experimental work described here shows that shape is indeed relevant in determining the overall NG behavior; in particular, some experiments reveal richer and complex behaviors induced by shape that cannot be explained by the power law alone. Although a more comprehensive analytical model remains to be defined, the evidence collected in these experiments suggests that the NG algorithm has an interesting potential for detecting complex shapes in noisy datasets.

description: A precise measurement of the cosmic-ray proton spectrum with the Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) is presented in the energy interval from 50 GeV to 60 TeV, and the observation of a softening of the spectrum above 10 TeV is reported. The analysis is based on the data collected during $\sim$6.2 years of smooth operations aboard the International Space Station and covers a broader energy range with respect to the previous proton flux measurement by CALET, with an increase of the available statistics by a factor of $\sim$2.2. Above a few hundred GeV we confirm our previous observation of a progressive spectral hardening with a higher significance (more than 20 sigma). In the multi-TeV region we observe a second spectral feature with a softening around 10 TeV and a spectral index change from =2.6 to -2.9 consistently, within the errors, with the shape of the spectrum reported by DAMPE. We apply a simultaneous fit of the proton differential spectrum which well reproduces the gradual change of the spectral index encompassing the lower energy power-law regime and the two spectral features observed at higher energies.

Neurochemical correlates of autistic disorder: A review of the literature
Creators: name: Arnold, L. Eugene
name: Aman, Michael
name: Lam, Kristen
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2006

description: Review of neurochemical investigations in autistic disorder revealed that a wide array of transmitter systems have been studied, including serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, acetylcholine, oxytocin, endogenous opioids, cortisol, glutamate, and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). These studies have been complicated by the fact that autism is a very heterogeneous disorder which often presents with comorbid behavioral problems. In addition, many of these studies employed very small samples and inappropriate control groups, making it difficult to draw conclusions with confidence. Overall, serotonin appears to have the most empirical evidence for a role in autism, but this requires further investigation and replication. There is little support for the notion that a dysfunction of norepinephrine or the endogenous opioids are related to autism. The role of dopaminergic functioning has not been compelling thus far, though conflicting findings on central dopamine turnover require further study. Promising new areas of study may include possible dysfunction of the cholinergic system, oxytocin, and amino acid neurotransmitters. Implications for pharmacotherapy are briefly discussed for each neurotransmitter system with brief research examples. Review of this work emphasizes the need for future studies to control for subject variables, such as race, sex, pubertal status, and distress associated with blood draws, which can affect measures of neurochemical function. In addition, research in neurochemistry must continue to work in concert with other subspecialties to form a more comprehensive and theory-based approach to the neurobiological correlates of autistic disorder.

description: The drive to teach programming across Key Stages 1–4 in UK schools has resulted in computer science teachers without computer science degrees. Many of these teachers find it difficult to teach an abstract concept like programming to children. The work presented here proposes a framework for teaching programming to aid teachers and pupil progress. PRIMM, a state-of-the-art framework, was implemented in two Year 9 classes of a comprehensive school in England. Results presented show that when it comes to solving problems, PRIMM performs well for simple single-statement problems but fails for more complex multi-statement problems. PRIDAM improves on PRIMM by introducing problem Decomposition and Arrangement which makes it more suitable for more complex multi-statement problems. The authors conclude that whereas the PRIMM framework is suitable for introducing concepts, PRIDAM is suitable both for introducing concepts and solving programming problems.

description: Despite decades of research on how, why, and when companies manage earnings, there is a paucity of evidence about the geographic location of earnings management within multinational firms. In this study, we examine where companies manage earnings using a sample of 2,067 U.S. multinational firms from 1994-2009. We predict and find that firms with extensive foreign operations in weak rule of law countries have more foreign earnings management than companies with subsidiaries in locations where the rule of law is strong. We also find some evidence that profitable firms with extensive tax haven subsidiaries manage earnings more than other firms, and that the earnings management is concentrated in foreign income. Apart from these results, we find that most earnings management takes place in domestic income, not foreign income.

description: Ce mémoire part d’un journal de terrain et s’appuie sur une méthodologie clinique dans une perspective ethnographique. Le journal de terrain est issu d’investigations pratiques en classe de 1-2P. L’analyse clinique a été faite en s’appuyant sur des concepts issus de la perspective psychanalytique dont sont issus Cifali, Imbert et Fernand Oury. Il aborde les relations intersubjectives dans un groupe-classe d’école enfantine, ainsi que le développement progressif d’une posture pédagogique de la part d’une enseignante en formation. Il s’agit d’un travail ancré dans la pratique pédagogique, dans les questions que cette pratique peut faire surgir au quotidien ce travail qui s’est, par ailleurs, appuyé sur des concepts et des théories issues des sciences de l’éducation. Au-delà de sa dimension théorique, ce mémoire a un aspect pragmatique. Il est, en effet, aussi destiné à des étudiants et des enseignants qui démarrent leur carrière professionnelle et rencontrent des difficultés similaires à celles développées dans ces pages. Il peut les rassurer et leur offrir des pistes de réflexion. J’ai la conviction que les auteurs cités pourront leur donner des outils pour mieux comprendre ce qui se joue dans un groupe classe qui doit se découvrir, apprendre à vivre ensemble, puis acquérir des apprentissages.
Concerned Enough to Act? Privacy Concerns & Perspectives Among Undergraduate Instagram Users

description: A gap, known as the privacy paradox, often exists between peoples' privacy concerns and the actions they take to protect their privacy. This thesis investigates how a small sample of undergraduate students perceive their online privacy, the measures they take to protect their online privacy, and the reasons for their action/inaction. In so doing, it seeks to ascertain whether the findings of Hinds et al.'s (2020) regarding Facebook users' perceptions of online privacy issues are replicable among a sample of undergraduate students who are regular users of Instagram. Interviews with 20 undergraduate students were conducted to gather information about their online privacy concerns, their attitudes toward social media platforms collecting their information, and the privacy protection strategies they employ. The findings suggest that in enacting protection strategies, the participants delineate between both social and institutional conceptions of privacy, and the notion of privacy as a right requiring protecting versus viewing privacy as a negotiable commodity. This, in turn, suggests a possible need to re-consider how privacy-related education is approached as well as privacy policy.

description: This three-year research project began in January 2014 and investigated whether, during the Victorian period, the professions formed a distinct self-sustaining social group with its own mores and values. The project looked at 16,000 individuals drawn from census data for Alnwick, Brighton, Bristol, Dundee, Greenock, Leeds, Merthyr Tydfil, Morpeth, and Winchester. The research project was funded by the UK Economic & Social Research Council and was based at the Universities of Oxford and Northumbria.
Sex-Specific Effects of a Mediterranean-Based Diet on Behavioural and Serotonin-Related Colonic and Hippocampal Changes in a Mouse Model of Prenatal Stress

description: Prenatal stress may increase the risk for depression in offspring and it has been suggested that this could be linked to alterations in tryptophan metabolism, leading to serotonergic changes. Dietary patterns based on the Mediterranean (Med) diet, which includes foods rich in nutrients involved in the tryptophan-serotonin pathway, have been linked to depressive symptom improvements when used as an intervention. This thesis examined, in a mouse model, whether a Med-based diet normalized depressive-like behaviour and changes in the serotonin system in the colon and hippocampus resulting from a repeated physical restraint stressor administered during the second trimester in adult C57BL/6N female and male offspring. The Med-based diet modulated behaviour and hippocampal serotonin receptors primarily in females and changed the enzyme involved in the colonic serotonergic pathway in males. These results suggest that a Med-based diet may help improve behavioural disturbances stemming from prenatal stress in a sex-specific way, perhaps through its actions on the gut-brain serotonin system.

description: Clinicians need to predict patient outcomes with high accuracy as early as possible after disease inception. In this manuscript, we show that patient-to-patient variability sets a fundamental limit on outcome prediction accuracy for a general class of mathematical models for the immune response to infection. However, accuracy can be increased at the expense of delayed prognosis. We investigate several systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) that model the host immune response to a pathogen load. Advantages of systems of ODEs for investigating the immune response to infection include the ability to collect data on large numbers of `virtual patients', each with a given set of model parameters, and obtain many time points during the course of the infection. We implement patient-to-patient variability $v$ in the ODE models by randomly selecting the model parameters from Gaussian distributions with variance $v$ that are centered on physiological values. We use logistic regression with one-versus-all classification to predict the discrete steady-state outcomes of the system. We find that the prediction algorithm achieves near $100\%$ accuracy for $v=0$, and the accuracy decreases with increasing $v$ for all ODE models studied. The fact that multiple steady-state outcomes can be obtained for a given initial condition, i.e. the basins of attraction overlap in the space of initial conditions, limits the prediction accuracy for $v>0$. Increasing the elapsed time of the variables used to train and test the classifier, increases the prediction accuracy, while adding explicit external noise to the ODE models decreases the prediction accuracy. Our results quantify the competition between early prognosis and high prediction accuracy that is frequently encountered by clinicians.

description: The pitahaya (Hylocereus spp.) is a cactus native to America. Despite the great diversity of species located in Mexico, there are few studies on the nutritional and nutraceutical value of its exotic fruits, ancestrally consumed in the Mayan culture. An evaluation was made regarding the physical-chemical characteristics, the nutritional components and the antioxidants of the fruits of H. ocamponis (mesocarp or red pulp) and H. undatus (white pulp), species of great commercial importance. The pulp of the fruits presented nutritional and nutraceutical differences between both species. The red pulp of H. ocamponis presented the highest content of betalains (15.94 mg 100 g-1), ascorbic acid (10.13 AAE mg 100 g-1) and antioxidant activity (2009.58 μM TE 100 g-1) compared to that of H. undatus. The seeds of both species had a higher content of linoleic acid (ω-6) compared to other fatty acids. The underused skin (epicarp) of the white pulp pitahaya presented a higher content of betalains (19.83 mg 100 g-1) than that found in the pulp and the red skin of the other species (13.21 mg 100 g-1). The red pitahaya that is for regional consumption presented a better functional quality. The skin of both species could be a source of pigments in the food industry.

description: This article has two aims; to introduce participatory research approaches with children and young people, and to consider such approaches within Educational Psychology training, practice and research. A range of ways of conceptualising and approaching participatory research are explored. Models applied to researching with children and young people specifically are then explained. A critical analysis of participatory research methods is offered, outlining power-related criticisms, ethical considerations and practical issues. The focus then turns to Educational Psychology, looking at applications of such approaches in researching with children and young people, the group that EPs work with predominantly. It is proposed that participatory research methods are highly relevant to the profession, both in training of educational psychologists (EPs) and for practising psychologists. This is set in the context of the Doctorate in Educational and Child Psychology at the University of East London. It is suggested that Educational Psychology research should take an increasingly participatory focus.
