Women scholars' coping narratives in generating research impact cases in the UK
Purpose We explore how women management scholars navigate “doing” research impact. Drawing on the voices of women leaders of research impact cases in UK business schools, we identify and theorise three distinct autobiographical narratives of coping. To inform systemic changes for more equitable national research policy implementation, we highlight barriers that deter individuals from becoming impactful scholars. Design/methodology/approach This q…

Integrating Inequality Regimes and Social Cognitive Career Theory
This study integrates Acker's institutional inequality regimes and social cognitive career theory (SCCT) to explore career resilience amongst highly qualified women professionals in a developing country context. Despite women undergraduate students outnumbering men in Indian medical schools, female physicians continue to face systemic barriers to long‐term career advancement into executive roles. This research investigates how gendered organizati…
Employment leave for early pregnancy endings
When a pregnancy ends in England and Wales, statutory time away from paid employment is limited to circumstances where there is a live birth or stillbirth. Forms of leave, such as Maternity Leave or Paternity Leave, depend on parental status derived from the civil registration of a new person or a post‐viability stillbirth. Other early pregnancy endings, such as miscarriage or abortion, do not provide specific time off work after pregnancy. This …
A typology of sexism in contemporary business schools
The legitimacy of business schools is based on rankings, revenues, branding, and opportunities to support staff and students “to make a difference in the world”. Yet sexism in business schools is endemic. Drawing on Acker's inequality regimes framework and a thematic analysis of reports in Poets&Quants , EFMD's Global Focus and AACSB International's BizEd / AACSB Insights over a decade, this study explores how business schools are dealing (or not…
The curious under‐representation of women impact case leaders
Universities are increasingly expected to demonstrate the wider societal impacts of academic research. Yet women management scholars were disproportionately under‐represented in leading impact cases in the UK's REF (Research Excellence Framework) 2014. An analysis of 395 REF impact cases for business and management studies with an identifiable lead author revealed that only 25 per cent were led by women, of which 54 per cent were sole authored. B…
German receptions of the works of Joseph Glanvill
The Royal Society of London, founded for the collaborative advancement of knowledge of the natural world, was famous for its advocacy of experimental scientific methodologies in the late seventeenth century. The product of an intellectual climate which produced some of the most influential thinkers of the age, the Royal Society is often credited with leading the development of the modern scientific method. Indeed, this view was perpetuated by the…

Adopted and looked after children are often excluded from service-user involvement. The purpose of the study discussed here by Julie Davies, John Wright, Susan Drake and Jennifer Bunting was, therefore, to develop methodologies to facilitate the inclusion of junior-school-aged children to reflect on their experience of participating in psychological therapy. Exclusively recruiting this group enabled us to develop age-specific techniques. The clin…
Coordinating History Across the Primary School
Specifically designed for busy teachers who have responsibility for co- ordinating a subject area within their primary school. Each volume in the series conforms to a concise style, while providing a wealth of tips, case studies and photocopiable material that teachers can use immediately.; There are special volumes dedicated to dealing with OFSTED, creating whole school policy and the demands of co-ordinating several subjects within a small scho…
Monitoring Reading Standards in Year 6
This article assesses the value of looking closely at reading scores of cohorts of children in order to pinpoint where, within the groups, attainment is rising, falling or static. This article analyses the reading standards of seven cohorts of Year 6 children from five randomly selected primary schools within one local education authority (LEA) (n = 1293). The results of this cross‐sectional study of a sample of Year 6 children are presented. Exa…

The First Mathematics Standard Assessment Tasks at Key Stage 1
This paper assesses the value parents can put on the mathematical Standard Assessment Task (SAT) score as an indicator of what children are achieving in mathematics. The results of a study of a sample of all the Year 2 children (176) from five randomly selected primary schools within one Local Education Authority (LEA) are presented. Pupils' scores on Mathematics 7, a standardised mathematics test for 7 year‐olds (National Foundation for Educatio…
The Reliability and Validity of the ‘Smiley’ Scale
The ‘Smiley’ scale was devised to measure primary school children's attitudes to school as part of the Junior School Project by the Inner London Education Authority in 1986. It appeared potentially useful, in both content and format, for our purpose. It was found that no reliability or validity study had been carried out on it. To rectify this, one was done. Internal consistency reliability was found to be satisfactory when tested on 641 Year 2 a…
Comics or Stories? Differences in the Reading Attitudes and Habits of Girls and Boys in years 2, 4 and 6
A random sample of six schools within the primary schools of one local education authority (LEA) was chosen comprising 216 Year 2 children (109 boys, 107 girls), 189 Year 4 children (99 boys, 90 girls) and 206 Year 6 children (104 boys, 102 girls). A self‐report questionnaire was administered to explore each cohort's attitudes to reading, the source and type of their reading materials and the places at home where they read. Results indicated that…
The Effects of Gender and Attendance Period on Children's Adjustment to Nursery Classes
This paper analyses the effects of gender and attendance period on children's adjustment to nursery classes as measured by the teachers using the Child at School Schedule. The sample consisted of 778 children in 16 nursery classes attached to primary schools in one Local Education Authority. The results of a two‐way analysis of variance showed that boys were perceived to be less well‐adjusted to school than girls (at F 1% level) and the afternoon…
