Deficits in odor discrimination versus odor identification in patients with schizophrenia and negative correlations with Gabaergic and DNA methyltransferase mRNAs in lymphocytes
Odor discrimination was a more powerful variable than odor identification in discriminating CSZ from controls and should be used more regularly as an odor measure in studies of schizophrenia. The substantive meaning of the negative correlations of odor discrimination and GABAergic mRNA variables in peripheral lymphocytes of CSZ needs more investigation and comparison with results in neural tissue
‘Why am I in all of these pictures?’ From Learning Stories to Lived Stories
In this paper, we report on Phase One of a small action research project that examined how Learning Stories were put into practice at one Scottish nursery. Specifically, the paper looks at young children’s participation rights and how they were enacted within the authorship of the stories. The project used an action research approach in which qualitative data about participants’ current experiences with the stories was used to spark reflection, e…
Changes in Expression of DNA-Methyltransferase and Cannabinoid Receptor mRNAs in Blood Lymphocytes After Acute Cannabis Smoking
Background Cannabis use is a component risk factor for the manifestation of schizophrenia. The biological effects of cannabis include effects on epigenetic systems, immunological parameters, in addition to changes in cannabinoid receptors 1 and 2, that may be associated with this risk. However, there has been limited study of the effects of smoked cannabis on these biological effects in human peripheral blood cells. We analyzed the effects of two…
Acts of pedagogical resistance
This article highlights an action research project that sparked transformation regarding how early years practitioners documented children’s learning. The dominant discourse of standardisation and narrowing of early childhood education, encapsulated in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s International Early Learning Study, has resulted in the ‘shaping’ and ‘testing’ of young children around the globe. The OECD has become …
Factors that influence elementary school teachers’ attitudes towards inclusion of visually impaired children in Turkey
There is a scarcity of research on inclusion of visually impaired children in Turkey. Specifically, a gap exists concerning the attitudes of elementary school teachers towards the inclusion of visually impaired children in mainstream schools. This article uses data from two questionnaires, leveraging the responses of 253 teachers from rural and urban areas. The results demonstrate that elementary school teachers commonly hold positive attitudes t…
Children’s Rights to Education – Where is the Weight for Children’s Views
This paper analyses the views and preferences of children and young people who experience barriers when attempting to engage with schools and schooling. It specifically considers processes of formal and informal exclusion and the manner in which “stigmatised” children are treated within a system where attendance to children’s rights is, at best, sketchy and at worst – downright discriminatory. The paper poses a number of critical questions concer…

Transnational Networks
Non-British migrants and their communities were an integral part of the multifaceted and multicultural nature of the British Empire. Their history, however, goes beyond a clearly delineated narrative of the Empire and includes transnational and truly global dimensions. German migrants and their transnational network creation within the structures of the British Empire, pursued over more than two centuries in a multitude of geographical settings, …

The Future of Childhood
By Alan Prout ( ed .) London : Routledge Falmer , 2005 ISBN 0415256755 , 167 pp . £19.99 This book critically examines the new social studies of childhood and offers the conclusion that childhood is heterogeneous and complex. Its introductory chapter argues that the time has come for the new social studies of childhood to move beyond promoting the notion that the child is an agent to recognise that different paradigms each have something to offer…
Analysing Participation and Social Exclusion With Children and Young People. Lessons From Practice
Children, Young People and Social Inclusion
This book presents a novel interpretation of the nature, causes and consequences of sex inequality in the modern labour market. Employing a sophisticated new theoretical framework, and drawing on original fieldwork, the book develops a subtle account of the phenomenon of sex segregation and offers a major challenge to existing approaches.

Making a difference? Bringing children's and young people's views into policy‐making
As the participation of children and young people in policy decision‐making has spread in the UK, participation work is facing hard questions on its translation from principle to effective practice. The participation literature has been largely self‐referential in its consideration of policy influence. This paper considers the potential usefulness of the UK literature on policy networks, which categorises the relationships between government acto…
Moving the participation agenda forward
This article sets the scene for the other papers in this Special Issue on children's and young people's participation, by outlining the nature of the ESRC Seminar Series from which all are derived and by developing the main themes discussed at the seminars. The focus of this Issue is participation by children and young people as this relates to differing notions of social exclusion and inclusion. This article critically examines participation in …
Events and processes
Experience is a crucial evaluative concept in anthropology. But the word also stands as an emblem for the demand that anthropologists should recreate experience so that it is directly accessible to readers. Events are important because they are part of experience, even if some of our colleagues find it convenient to deny them the right to an anthropological explanation. Other people&s;s experience is inaccessible, except in momentary and partial …

Collective Intentionality and Individual Behavior
Disability Studies as Ethnographic Research and Text
This paper problematises the notion of research production within disability studies by comparing literature on emancipatory research with concepts of reflexivity, authority and empowerment employed within ethnographic research. It critically examines a number of proposals within disability studies on how researchers can stimulate or contribute to processes which improve their respondents life conditions. A variety of strategies for change are di…

Neurocognitive Dysfunction in Dually-Diagnosed Patients
Substance abuse has been associated with cognitive dysfunction, such as problems with attention, reasoning, and memory. Certain psychiatric disorders also have been associated with cognitive difficulties, thus placing dually-diagnosed patients at high risk for cognitive impairment that could interfere with successful entry into or completion of therapy. Twenty-two dually-disordered inpatients were administered the Brief Readiness to Change Questi…

Dimensions of the group environment scale
Student teachers in yearlong mental health consultation groups completed Moos's Group Environment Scale (GES) and three semantic differential ratings of their satisfaction with the group experience. Factor analysis of the GES yielded four dimensions, the first two corresponding to Moos's hypothesized dimensions of Relationship and System Maintenance/System Change. Intercorrelations of factor composite scores with the differential ratings provided…

Correlations Between Mood, Weight, and Electrolytes During the Menstrual Cycle
Eleven female college age volunteers were studied over a total of 15 menstrual cycles under controlled conditions. Daily weights, urinary potassium/sodium ratios and self evaluations of negative affect were obtained. The different variables changed throughout the menstrual cycle, and were elevated in the luteal-premenstrual and early menstrual phases and decreased at other times. The potassium/sodium ratio and weight changes suggest that activati…
Acetylcholine and Depression
Physostigmine, a cholinesterase inhibitor which increases central acetylcholine levels, has been found in man to decrease manic symptoms, antagonize methylphenidate-induced behavioral activation, and induce severe depression and psychomotor retardation in marijuana intoxicated normals. In the current study, physostigmine was found to increase depressed mood in patients with an affective component to their symptoms (manics, depressives, and schizo…

Methodological issues in psychopharmacological research
Past research on the relative efficacy of powerful psychotropic agents has generally relied on group designs, which may mask critical individual differences in drug response. This and other methodological inadequacies raise questions about much of the vast literature in support of the clinical efficacy of chlorpromazine and similar drugs. A research strategy employing within-subject designs, using a single subject as his own control, is suggested…
Metaphor in group mental health consultation
One of the important group process phenomena present in group mental health consultation is the construction of metaphors by group members. This paper reviews the concept of the metaphor, and lists a set of cues to help the consultant identify the existence of a metaphor. In addition, the authors discuss the various functions the metaphor can play in group and individual unconscious and preconscious thinking. Finally, four general strategies for …

Attraction to a Group as a Function of Attitude Similarity and Geographic Distance
Attraction toward a group was investigated as a function of attitude similarity and perceived geographic distance. Students (n = 60), divided into four groups, received similar or dissimilar attitude statements attributed to a near or distant group. The effects of attitude similarity were strongly significant (p<.0001). Attraction scores were high toward a similar attitude group and low toward a dissimilar attitude group. A similar group was also…

Cognitive Correlates of Obesity in a Nonclinical Population
From a large class who had been pretested on the I-E Locus of Control Scale and a self-esteem measure, 30 overweight and 20 normal-weight students were selected and measured to determine their percentage of overweight. They were then asked to complete questionnaires measuring knowledge of health-related information and of specific obesity-related information. Results confirmed (a) a negative correlation between self-esteem and percentage overweig…

Understanding the meanings of children
This paper identifies a number of children's voices within qualitative academic writing. It suggests that researchers can discover a variety of children's voices by employing reflexive techniques to ensure that their interpretations are not influenced by their personal prejudice, or the ethics, tools, roles and theories of their professional paradigm. It concludes that those who work with children may be able to reinforce the theme of the UN Conv…
