Attention!
- Professor Kerry Chamberlain has kindly provided a
Leeds Reading List
following his talk on 6th September 2011: "It covers a wider range of materials than presented at the talk, including arts-based research, ethics, writing, memory, time and presentation. Given the original context, the list is largely health focused. It does not attempt to be comprehensive or complete but merely offers a range of texts that might be consulted on matters in qualitative research practice".
- The two Section prizes have now been decided. The Early Career Award has been won by Dr Carl Macrae (London School of Economics) for Making risks visible: Identifying and interpreting threats to airline flight safety Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology 82 273-293 (2009).
