The complex interplay between perception, cognition, and action: A commentary on Bach et al. 2022
Bach (Psychological Research 2022, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00426-022-01773-w ) offer a re-conceptualisation of motor imagery, influenced by older ideas of ideomotor action and formulated in terms of action effects rather than motor output. We share the view of an essential role of action effect in action planning and motor imagery processes, but we challenge the claim that motor imagery is non-motoric in nature. In the present article, we critic…
Politics of the Heart: In Conversation with Porty Pride
This contribution, by four LGBT+ women of the Porty Pride committee, explores the background of Porty Pride as well as the priorities and values that underpin their approach to the events that take place every June.

Cultural Histories, Reproductive Rights and Collective Remembering: Contemporary Ireland and Scotland in a Post-Roe v. Wade World
This contribution to the theme of ‘Scotland and the Two Irelands’ focusses upon how we collectively remember – or forget - women’s experiences around reproductive rights to contraception, sexual health, and abortion.

Ireland and the End of the British Empire: The Republic and its Role in the Cyprus Emergency
In 1949, Ireland left the Commonwealth and the British Empire began its long fragmentation. The relationship between the new Republic of Ireland and Britain was a complex one however, and the traditional assumption that the Republic would universally support self-determination overseas and object to 'imperialism' does not hold up to historical scrutiny. In reality, for economic and geopolitical reasons, the Republic of Ireland played an important…
Get back to where you once belonged!' The positive creative impact of a refresher course for 'baby-boomer' rock musicians
This article reports on a study of participants in a Weekend Warriors Program for 'lapsed' rock musicians in Melbourne, Australia. It observes musicians over a six-week period that included a jam session, coaching sessions and a gig (concert). It examines the learning pathways of participants and their goals and experiences alongside those of the programme organisers within the comparative context of music learning practices among young and older…
The British Empire and its Contested Pasts (review)
Good man, Mary!' Women musicians and the fraternity of Irish traditional music
The study of gender is 'inherently a study of relations of asymmetrical power and opportunity' (S.B. Ortner and H. Whitehead, 1981. Introduction to Sexual meanings: the cultural construction of gender and sexuality. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, p. 4 ). In the masculine space of the Irish pub, women musicians respond to this power differential by adopting an array of tactics aimed at increasing their musical participation and enjoyment. …
