The sound of silence
Learning that “career” was not a definite sign in Irish Sign Language (ISL) and that “Career Guidance” was poorly understood by the Deaf community prompted a systematic literature review (SLR). An uncomfortable truth relating to Career Guidance emerged – “Inclusion” is not where we presume it to be at.This paper presents the results of the SLR and shares how the answers from a thematic analysis can – through a Universal Design (UD), and Universal…
Utilizing virtual reality to assist social competence education and social support for children from under-represented backgrounds
Although education is a fundamental human right for global citizens, educational inequality still exists within and among countries. Still today, many students struggle to access and receive quality education. Therefore, the value of using immersive technology to increase social competence and perceived social support for children who live in remote areas of the world, reduce inequality, and improve the quality of education requires much attentio…
A new school-based play approach for young children’s wellbeing
Individuals with anxiety disorders were traced back to have onset before aged 5 years. Early intervention is important to target preschool and primary school children. The objective of this 14-week fieldwork was to explore how we can support young children’s well-being in schools. The following research questions were identified to investigate this topic: 1. Did a 14-week ‘build-to-play’ approach lead to reports of reduced anxiety as reported by …
Mastering the writing game
This paper provides insights for early career researchers and supervisors on constructing a journal article. Strategies are provided for each section of the journal article with reference to elements that early career researchers generally do well and ways they can strengthen their writing. This paper also gives strategies for building and maintaining resilience as academic authors and uses the analogy of game play to explore the publication proc…
“I Find It Really Difficult to Control Myself Too”
If having one child with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) contributes to family stress and dysfunction, then what happens when more than one family member has ADHD? This paper explores this question by drawing on findings from a multi-case study that explored the voices of stakeholders (child and parent/carer) affected by ADHD in Ireland. There were eight case studies (families) included. Each case had one parent/carer with ADHD an…

Cyberbullying or Cyber Aggression
Due to the ongoing debate regarding the definitions and measurement of cyberbullying, the present article critically appraises the existing literature and offers direction regarding the question of how best to conceptualise peer-to-peer abuse in a cyber context. Variations across definitions are problematic as it has been argued that inconsistencies with regard to definitions result in researchers examining different phenomena, whilst the absence…
The Coping with Cyberbullying Questionnaire
Victims of cyberbullying report a number of undesirable outcomes regarding their well-being, especially those who are not able to successfully cope with cyber victimization. Research on coping with cyberbullying has identified a number of different coping strategies that seem to be differentially adaptive in cases of cyber victimization. However, knowledge regarding the effectiveness of these strategies is scarce. This scarcity is partially due t…
Internal Consistency, Reliability, and Temporal Stability of the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire Short-Form
The Oxford Happiness Questionnaire short-form (Hills & Argyle, 2002) is an 8-item measure of happiness. This study evaluated the internal consistency reliability and test-retest reliability of the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire short-form among 55 Northern Irish undergraduate university students who completed the measure on two occasions separated by two weeks. Internal consistency of the measure was satisfactory at both Time 1 ( alpha = .62) and…
Temporal Stability of the Francis Scale of Attitude Toward Christianity Among 9- To 11-Year-Old English Children
Recently two studies have reported on the test-retest reliability of the Francis Scale of Attitude toward Christianity; however, these studies were limited to samples of university students. This study examined the temporal stability of both the 24- and 7-item versions of the junior version of the Francis Scale of Attitude toward Christianity (Francis, 1978; Francis, Greer, & Gibson, 1991) over a six-week period among a sample of 58 English child…

Temporal Stability of the Francis Scale of Attitude toward Christianity Short-Form
This study evaluated the test-retest reliability of the Francis Scale of Attitude toward Christianity short-form. 39 Northern Irish undergraduate students completed the measure on two occasions separated by one week. Stability across the two administrations was high, r = .92, and there was no significant change between Time 1(M = 25.2, SD = 5.4) and Time 2 (M = 25.7, SD = 6.2). These data support the short-term test-retest reliability of the Fran…
Psychological Type and Attitude toward Christianity
A sample of 149 university students completed the Francis Psychological Type Scales together with the Francis Scale of Attitude Toward Christianity. The data indicated that university students classified as Feeling Types hold a more positive attitude toward Christianity than those classified as Thinking Types. These findings replicate the 1999 report of Jones and Francis
A Cross-National Perspective on School Bullying in Northern Ireland
There is great value in exploring the prevalence of school bullying from a cross-national perspective. Smith, Morita, Junger-Tas, Olweus, Catalano, and Slee in 1999 presented a cross-national perspective on the nature, prevalence, and correlates of school bullying that encompassed a wide range of countries. However, Northern Ireland was not included, despite potentially being an important country to include, given its volatile social, ethnic, and…
