I am the person who is credited with having coined the term Mad Studies; here I explore how this new concept took shape.

Much educational research on working-class boys has focused on their failure and lack of aspiration. However, there has been little research on working-class boys’ experiences of success. The very idea of being educationally...
Adaptive coupling influences generalization of sensorimotor learning.
Sensorimotor learning typically shows generalization from one context to another. Models of sensorimotor learning characterize this with a fixed generalization function that couples learning between contexts. Here we examine...
Class matters in the interview setting?
In this article we argue that despite methodological and analytical advancements in the field of social class research, these developments have not led to a wholehearted discussion about class positionality and situatedness in...

A review of molecular genetic studies of neurocognitive deficits in schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia is a complex and debilitating illness with strong genetic loading. In line with its heterogeneous symptomatology, evidence suggests genetic etiologies for the phenotypes in schizophrenia. A search across...

On the reliability of unreliable information
When individuals learn from what others tell them, the information is subject to transmission error that does not arise in learning from direct experience. Yet evidence shows that humans consistently prefer this apparently more...
Multiple motor memories are learned to control different points on a tool.
Skillful object manipulation requires learning the dynamics of objects, linking applied force to motion 1 ,2 . This involves the formation of a motor memory 3 ,4 , which has been assumed to be associated with the object...
MOTMOT

The disparity in species’ traits arises through variation in the tempo and mode of evolution over time and between lineages. Understanding these patterns is a core goal in evolutionary biology. Here we present the...

Higher education, social class and the mobilisation of capitals
Strategies employed by middle-class families to ensure successful educational outcomes for their children have long been the focus of theoretical and empirical analysis in the United Kingdom and beyond. In austerity England, the...
The visual geometry of a tool modulates generalization during adaptation.
Knowledge about a tool's dynamics can be acquired from the visual configuration of the tool and through physical interaction. Here, we examine how visual information affects the generalization of dynamic learning during tool...

Imagery of movements immediately following performance allows learning of motor skills that interfere.
Motor imagery, that is the mental rehearsal of a motor skill, can lead to improvements when performing the same skill. Here we show a powerful and complementary role, in which motor imagery of different movements after actually...
Well-founded social fictions
This article engages with Atkinson's recent criticisms of concepts of collective habitus, such as 'institutional' and 'familial' habitus, in order to defend their conceptual utility and theoretical coherence. In so doing we...

Modes of activation of organometallic iridium complexes for catalytic water and C–H oxidation
Sodium periodate (NaIO4) is added to Cp*IrIII (Cp* = C5Me5–) or (cod)IrI (cod = cyclooctadiene) complexes, which are water and C–H oxidation catalyst precursors, and the resulting aqueous reaction is investigated from...
Consent for the diagnosis of preclinical dementia states

It is now possible to detect the pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) many years before symptoms and signs otherwise become manifest. Biomarkers of disease include evidence of amyloid and tau in the cerebrospinal fluid and...
