Journal Article
Bellato, A., Arora, I., Kochhar, P., Hollis, C., & Groom, M. J. (2002). Indices of heart rate variability and performance during a response-conflict task are differently associated with ADHD and autism. Journal of Attention Disorders, 26(3), 434-446. https://doi.org/10.1177/1087054720972793

Objective. We investigated autonomic arousal, attention and response conflict, in ADHD and autism. Method. Heart rate variability (HRV), and behavioural and electrophysiological indices of performance, were recorded during a task with low and hig...

Predicting arsenic solubility in contaminated soils using isotopic dilution techniques (2002)
Journal Article
Tye, A. M., Young, S. D., Crout, N. M., Zhang, H., Preston, S., Bailey, E. H., …Kilham, K. (2002). Predicting arsenic solubility in contaminated soils using isotopic dilution techniques. Environmental Science and Technology, 36(5), 982-988. https://doi.org/10.1021/es0101633

An isotopic dilution assay was developed to measure radiolabile As concentration in a diverse range of soils (pH 3.30-7.62; % C = 1.00-6.55). Soils amended with 50 mg of As kg-1 (as Na2HAsO4·7H2O) were incubated for over 800 d in an aerated "microcos...

Journal Article
Appleby, D. J. (2002). Combination and control: Cultural politics in the management of friendly societies in nineteenth-century Essex and Suffolk. Essex Archaeology and History : Transactions of the Essex Society for Archaeology and History, 3rd Series Vol. 33 (2002), 323-332

The records concerning nineteenth-century friendly societies contain such an immense volume of detailed and often intimate information that the unsuspecting researcher could easily be overwhelmed by the sheer weight of evidence. This is particularly... Read More about Combination and control: Cultural politics in the management of friendly societies in nineteenth-century Essex and Suffolk.

In 1989 the collection of drawings and short-stories in Galizan-Portuguese Fogo cruzado was published with an untitled and introductory non-literary text prepared by its authors. The process of its creation, publishing and reception was an extreme ex... Read More about The monolingualism of identity or aporias from the end of the world: (indicial notes on Fogo cruzado).

Being more certain about random assignment in social policy evaluations (2002)
Journal Article
Stafford, B. (2002). Being more certain about random assignment in social policy evaluations. Social Policy and Society, 1(4),

Social experiments have been widely utilised in evaluations of social programmes in the US to identify ‘what works’, whilst in the UK their use is more controversial. This paper explores the paradigmatic, technical and practical issues evaluators co... Read More about Being more certain about random assignment in social policy evaluations.

Pathologizing populations and colonizing minds: internatioinal psychosocial programmes in Kosovo (2002)
Journal Article
Pupavac, V. (2002). Pathologizing populations and colonizing minds: internatioinal psychosocial programmes in Kosovo. Alternatives, 27,

Through a case study of international responses in Kosovo, this article critically analyses how the international therapeutic model constructs war-affected populations as traumatised and subject to psychosocial dysfunctionalism. The international the... Read More about Pathologizing populations and colonizing minds: internatioinal psychosocial programmes in Kosovo.

Using Needs Assessment to Understand Continuing Disability in Patients with Enduring Mental Illness. Implications for Considerations of Service Development (2002)
Journal Article
Middleton, H., Adeniran, R., Brewin, C. R., Brady, C., Duggan, C., Hopkins, N., …Walton, M. (2002). Using Needs Assessment to Understand Continuing Disability in Patients with Enduring Mental Illness. Implications for Considerations of Service Development. Journal of Mental Health, 11,

Particular strengths of the MRC Needs for Care Assessment Schedule have been used to investigate the treatment status of patients with persistent psychiatric disability in ways that other needs assessment tools are unable to. One hundred and seventy-... Read More about Using Needs Assessment to Understand Continuing Disability in Patients with Enduring Mental Illness.

Pharmacogenetics, pharmacogenomics and airway disease (2002)
Journal Article
Hall, I. P. (2002). Pharmacogenetics, pharmacogenomics and airway disease. Respiratory Research, 3(1),

The availability of a draft sequence for the human genome will revolutionise research into airway disease. This review deals with two of the most important areas impinging on the treatment of patients: pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics. Considera...

In vivo models of lung neutrophil activation. Comparison of mice and hamsters (2002)
Journal Article
Corteling, R., Wyss, D., & Trifilieff, A. (2002). In vivo models of lung neutrophil activation. Comparison of mice and hamsters. BMC Pharmacology, 2(1),

BACKGROUND: Evidence suggests that both the migration and activation of neutrophils into the airway is of importance in pathological conditions such as pulmonary emphysema. In the present study, we describe in vivo models of lung neutrophil infiltrat... Read More about In vivo models of lung neutrophil activation. Comparison of mice and hamsters.

'Enhanced Direct and Indirect Genetic Algorithm Approaches for a Mall Layout and Tenant Selection Problem' (2002)
Journal Article
Aickelin, U., & Dowsland, K. (2002). 'Enhanced Direct and Indirect Genetic Algorithm Approaches for a Mall Layout and Tenant Selection Problem'. Journal of Heuristics, 8(5), https://doi.org/10.1023/A%3A1016536623961

During our earlier research, it was recognised that in order to be successful with an indirect genetic algorithm approach using a decoder, the decoder has to strike a balance between being an optimiser in its own right and finding feasible solutions....

An indirect genetic algorithm for set covering problems (2002)
Journal Article
Aickelin, U. (2002). An indirect genetic algorithm for set covering problems. Journal of the Operational Research Society, 53(10), 1118-1126. https://doi.org/10.1057/palgrave.jors.2601317

This paper presents a new type of genetic algorithm for the set covering problem. It differs from previous evolutionary approaches first because it is an indirect algorithm, i.e. the actual solutions are found by an external decoder function. The gen...
