Playtime in the Borderlands’: Children's Representations of School, Gender and Bullying through Photographs and Interviews
Photography has been commonly used as a research tool in studies of childhood/children. However images of school children in official documentation are rarely taken or chosen by children and may not reflect their real experiences. This research considered the photographs taken by year six primary school children of their school and the images they chose to represent themselves. Subsequent interviews with children revealed attitudes to school, the…
Conceptualising the ‘competitive’ strategies of rural manufacturing SMEs
Recent research attributes rural industrialisation to the enhanced competitive performance of rural small and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs). Central to much of this work has been a desire to acknowledge empirical diversity in business behaviour and performance between different rural spaces. Drawing on the tenets of critical realism the authors develop a conceptual framework which permits the diversity of behaviour exhibited by rural SMEs to be…
Rural industrialization, ‘quality’ and service: Some findings from South Warwickshire and North Devon
Studies of UK rural industrialization have traditionally sought to explain the success of rural SMEs (Small and Medium‐sized Enterprises) in terms of their capacity for innovative or enterprising behaviour. In turn, this has led researchers to focus their attention on the material aspects of competitive behaviour, particularly those connected to technology and technological exploitation, at the expense of more intangible aspects such as the advan…

The Confused Robot: Two‐Year‐Olds’ Responses to Breakdowns in Conversation
Preschool children at two ages conversed with a toy robot during a play session. During the conversations the robot inserted either general (e.g., What?) or specific (e.g., Piggy is in what?) contingent queries in response to selected utterances. The children’s replies to these breakdowns in conversation indicated they were sensitive to the pragmatic requirements of these different types of query. By 33 months of age, the children replied to gene…
Practical Inadequacy or Inadequate Practice? Quantum Theory, ‘Reality’ and the Logical Limits to Realism
Decoherence, Quantum Theory and their Implications for the Philosophy of Geomorphology
Recent philosophical discussions on the nature of geomorphology ( Bassett 1994 ; Richards 1994 ; Rhoads 1994 ) have concluded that the way forward in geomorphological explanation is through either an empiricist or a realist approach. This paper draws lessons from quantum mechanics and the related concepts of decoherence and entanglement to explore the theoretical limitations of both of these existing approaches to geomorphology. It is suggested t…
The Communicative Development Inventory-WORDS Short Form as an index of language production
This longitudinal study was designed to examine the CDI-WORDS Short Form vocabulary checklist (Reznick & Goldsmith, 1989) as an index of language production. In particular, we were curious about: (1) the concurrent associations between the CDI-WORDS Short Form checklist measure and directly observed measures of lexical production; (2) the associations between Short Form checklists administered at different ages; and (3) the predictive association…
The Semantically Reciprocating Robot: Adult Influences on Children's Early Conversational Skills
Two‐year‐old children's conversational replies were observed in two social contexts: (a) with a partner who consistently responded to each of their utterances by semantically reciprocating and commenting briefly on their topic; or (b) with a partner who also consistently replied to each of their utterances but did not semantically reciprocate their topic. Children were significantly more likely to reply to a partner who maintained their topic. Gi…
Developmental antecedents of taxonomic and thematic strategies at 3 years of age
Individual differences in children's conceptual strategies at 3 years were predicted by several aspects of children's behavior and language at 13 and 24 months of age. Production of pointing gestures at 13 months and production of nouns and attributive adjectives at 24 months were positively associated with the use of a taxonomic matching strategy at 3 years of age. Alternatively, an early interest in functional-relational play behavior at 13 mon…
Lexical development during middle infancy: A mutually driven infant-caregiver process
Individual differences in mother's tendencies to describe aspects of the environment occupying their infant's current focus of attention were measured during interactions with their 13-month-old infants. The frequency of these current maternal utterances was then correlated with measures of their infants' productive lexical development at 13 and 24 months of age
