Buying shampoo can be overwhelming – there are so many brands to choose from, across a huge range of prices. Some brands promise to repair and nourish our hair, while others promise to strengthen and add volume. But are any of these claims true? Do we even need shampoo at all?购买洗发水可能会让人不知所措——品牌众多,价格差异巨大。 一些品牌承诺修复和滋养我们的头发,而另一些品牌则承诺加强和增加头发的体积。 但这些说法都是真的吗? 我们甚至需要洗发水吗?Since long before shampoo was invented – some say in India – our bodies have been producing sebum – an oil-like substance. Sebum stops our skin from getting dry, manages the health of our scalp and makes our hair shiny. But it also collects dirt, and, if left untouched for too long, sebum can cause our hair to become greasy. There are no disadvantages from a health perspective to letting our hair be greasy, says Eleanore Richardson, Trichologist at Fulham Scalp and Hair Clinic, but many people choose to wash their hair regularly for aesthetic reasons.早在洗发水发明之前——有人说是在印度——我们的身体就一直在产生皮脂——一种油状物质。 皮脂阻止我们的皮肤变干,管理我们头皮的健康,让我们的头发闪亮。 但它也会积聚污垢,如果长时间未接触,皮脂会使我们的头发变得油腻。 Fulham Scalp and Hair Clinic 的毛发学家埃莉诺·理查森 (Eleanore Richardson) 说,从健康的角度来看,让我们的头发油腻并没有什么坏处,但许多人出于审美原因选择定期洗头。And so we reach for the shampoo bottle. Shampoos contain a group of chemicals called surfactants. They grab the dirt and grease from the surface of our hair, meaning when we rinse away the shampoo, we also wash away the grease and dirt. But, as Laura Waters, who's a Professor of Pharmaceutical Analysis in the School of Applied Sciences at Huddersfield University, points out, 'some surfactants work too well' and take the natural oils out of the hair, as well. More expensive shampoos may contain less harsh surfactants, but – adds Laura Waters – the type of shampoo doesn't really matter. 'It's on our hair very briefly and gets washed away'. It's the conditioners and styling products that we use after the shampoo that make a bigger difference to the texture and feel of our hair.所以我们伸手去拿洗发水瓶。 洗发水含有一组称为表面活性剂的化学物质。 它们抓住我们头发表面的污垢和油脂,这意味着当我们冲洗掉洗发水时,我们也洗掉了油脂和污垢。 但是,正如哈德斯菲尔德大学应用科学学院药物分析教授劳拉·沃特斯 (Laura Waters) 所指出的那样,“一些表面活性剂效果太好”,而且还会去除头发中的天然油脂。 更昂贵的洗发水可能含有较少的刺激性表面活性剂,但 - 劳拉沃特斯补充道 - 洗发水的类型并不重要。 “它在我们的头发上停留的时间非常短,然后就会被冲走”。 正是我们在洗发后使用的护发素和定型产品对我们头发的质地和触感产生了更大的影响。Of course, the more we put onto our hair, the more we need to cleanse it off, creating a vicious circle. So, yes, it seems we do have a need for shampoo, but we also shouldn't expect it to be a miracle cure. And, finally, next time you're in a shampoo aisle, remember that hair is made up of dead protein cells and that, sadly, not even the most expensive shampoo can bring them back to life.当然,我们涂的越多,就越需要清洗,形成恶性循环。 所以,是的,我们似乎确实需要洗发水,但我们也不应期望它是一种灵丹妙药。 最后,下次你在洗发水货架时,请记住头发是由死去的蛋白质细胞组成的,遗憾的是,即使是最昂贵的洗发水也无法让它们起死回生。词汇表brand 品牌repair 修复nourish 滋养strengthen 使强韧,强化volume 数量sebum 皮脂oil-like substance 类似油类物质scalp 头皮shiny 有光泽的greasy 油腻的aesthetic 美观的chemical 化学品surfactant 表面活性剂surface 表层rinse 冲洗,清洗harsh 刺激性强的conditioner 护发素styling product 美发定型产品texture (发)质,质地cleanse 清洁,清洗miracle cure 灵丹妙药
The Good Friday Agreement that ended the conflict in Northern Ireland turned 25 on April 10th. What were the main factors that contributed to its success? I talked to Shaun Mcdaid, a Senior Lecturer in Politics from the Department of Behavioural and Social Sciences at Huddersfield University. We discussed the history of the Troubles, terrorists from the Irish Republican Army, and their international connections including the Soviet one, but also what's next for Northern Ireland amid Brexit. Listen to our conversation. And if you enjoy what I do, please support me on Ko-fi!

Vikings were addicted to silver; they collected it as coins, as ingots, arm-rings, jewellery. On one Swedish island alone archaeologists and metal detectorists found some 200,000 silver coins and there is a silver hoard there for almost every Viking farm. Why? What can the coins, many of which came from Asia, tell us not just about the huge Viking trading area but also about their society? And how did this influx of silver transform European economy and life in the early Middle Ages? These questions have occupied historians and archaeologists for a long time but now advanced scientific techniques such as DNA analysis and microscopic laser sampling are yielding new, more detailed and sometimes surprising answers. Rajan Datar gets an update on Viking research from archaeologist Marianne Hem Eriksen from the University of Leicester; Anders Winroth, historian from the University of Oslo; Soren Sindbaek, archaeologist from Aarhus University; and sound archaeologist Rupert Till from Huddersfield University.

Today's guest on The Happy Head Podcast is Rich Morley. I was told one day by the medical profession that I had to live with chronic disease and get used to it; there was nothing more they could do. Have you ever been told something similar? At just seventeen, a chronic illness would begin to ruin my life for the next fifteen years. I had numerous tests which all came back negative, and various drugs did nothing for me. It was frustrating and debilitating. Eventually I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. To be given a diagnosis like that at such a young age absolutely destroys your self esteem and outlook on life. Nothing helped and the medical profession were flummoxed … The diagnosis hit me really hard, the painkillers and anti-depressants didn’t help. The symptoms ranged anything from terrible headaches to my legs just giving way and I would fall over. The worst thing though was lack of sleep which is needed to restore and heal your body, and if you don’t get enough your symptoms just get worse. I tried every single mental and physical therapy but nothing worked and I thought I would end up in a wheelchair. But what I am about to tell you is not to lose hope, because Tai Chi saved my life. Tai Chi saved my life … I’d just about given up completely when it was suggested I try Tai Chi. Being desperate I went and after the first class, I had to go to bed for a day, but something pulled me towards going again. Remarkably, after going to the second class the following week, I was on my way home and felt I had more energy than I had in years. The more I practiced the more I improved and eventually I was training for hours a day, I was amazed at the way I felt and as I started training more regularly I became a Gold medal winning champion. I help business owners get better health, enhanced energy, and beat their stress. I help others regain their health and get their lives back, now it’s time for me to help you. My accolades include: - Worked in partnership with Huddersfield University creating and running the U.K’s first Tai Chi for Stroke rehabilitation study for the NHS- I train stroke survivors to improve their balance and worked with them to regain control of their bodies and improve their wellbeing- I’ve worked with elite sports people to improve their skills and mindsets- I teach school children how to deal with stress and anxiety caused by their exams- I’ve published three books and I’ve been featured on the BBC You reach Rich here:https://richmorley.com/https://www.facebook.com/rich.m.morley Download and listen to the podcast here: iTunes: http://tiny.cc/AHHiTunes Spotify Shows: http://tiny.cc/AHHpcSpotify Stitcher: http://tiny.cc/AHHpcStitcher Amazon Music: http://tiny.cc/AHHAmazon Omny Studio: https://omny.fm/shows/a-happy-head-podcast/ Google Podcasts: http://tiny.cc/AHHpcgoogle Tunein: http://tiny.cc/AHHpctunein Thanks for listening, to book a call with Paul click here: http://tiny.cc/callwithpaul Paul Wilson (https://www.ahappyhead.co.uk) is the go-to Mindset Coach for ambitious business owners.

My guest this week is Chris Williams. LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/christopher-williams-ba33888 Chris has been the Leadership Development Manager at Huddersfield University for 2 ½ years now; having been a key cog in the Leadership Development team at Sky for over 6 years before that. I actually attended his programme at Sky, as a first-time leader myself… and I'm glad I did. I think it's safe to say that Chris isn't a ‘Trainer's Guide' kinda guy, nor is he into pointless dancing energisers that fill time and make most people feel incredibly uncomfortable… why do L&D still do that?! What Chris is, however, is a leadership expert with a strong sense of responsibility to and for the Leaders under his watch; maximising the impact of his time with them and following that up with targeted coaching conversations that never ‘feel' targeted, and rarely feels like coaching. So, let's hear more about him, his influences and his thoughts, as I welcome Chris to the show.

Eileen Jones is a journalist, author and publicist based in Ambleside in the Lake District. How parkrun changed our lives is her first book for Gritstone Publishing which ‘set out to see why so many people love the Saturday morning run around the park, and how it has changed their lives'. She has her own one-woman business, Cumbria PR, promoting tourism and heritage organisations including William Wordsworth's home at Rydal Mount, the Heaton Cooper Studio and Gallery, and Zeffirellis cinemas and restaurants. She has worked for newspapers and magazines including the Yorkshire Post and Holland Herald, the KLM inflight magazine based in Amsterdam, and for 12 years she was course leader for the journalism and public relations degrees at Huddersfield University. A former fell-runner who once won a teapot in the 33-mile Haworth Hobble, Eileen has competed in many of the big fell races, including Wasdale, Borrowdale, Ben Nevis and Bens of Jura. But when she slowed down “I started to feel guilty about the marshals waiting for me on summit checkpoints. It was no fun being so far off the back of the pack.” Now she describes herself as a born-again parkrunner. She's done 260 parkruns at 104 locations and was once proud to be first “old dear” at Old Deer parkrun. She helped set up the parkrun at Fell Foot, Windermere in 2014 where she is still a member of the core volunteer team, and also helped set up the new Rothay parkrun in Ambleside. In her spare time, Eileen is a theatre reviewer and has a popular – if currently dormant - theatre blog, Stagey Lady. She has two sons, one of whom was a member of the West End cast of Les Miserables (2015-16); and the other played the Les Mis lead, Jean Valjean, in a junior production. Eileen's dream project, for which she's gaining considerable and not entirely fantastical support, is the production of a new show : parkrun the musical. How parkrun changed our lives is her first book for Gritstone Publishing. It's available from Amazon, from bookshop.org, the independent online store, and from the publisher's website: https://gritstonecoop.co.uk/books/how-parkrun-changed-our-lives/ Original video on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rt0lyDCHxvA
In a special report, authors Anne Gregory, Ph.D., Bill Nichols, Ph.D., and Professor John Underwood examine the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic for professional communicators in the English National Health Service (NHS). Specifically, they look at the first three months of the pandemic from March 2020 to the beginning of June 2020 – the period when communication was initiated and the peak of first-wave infections. Inevitably they found gaps we can all learn from.Guest: Professor Anne Gregory, Ph.D., BA, FRSA, HonFCIPR, Huddersfield University, a.gregory@hud.ac.ukThe article Anne refers to ““The lived experience of health communication professionals during the Covid-19 pandemic” is not yet available.

Season 2 - More Real life as a carer, mum, crafter and writer - what is it like?
Welcome back to episode 4, I can't believe it has been a month already!! This week I discuss my name, and how I came up with CJ's Crafts. I become tongue tied with the word 'different' and despite trying not to, I continuously use it as it is stuck in my head!! What I am trying to explain is that although I am only 41, I was raised in a tiny village in Norfolk UK which happened to be white with what I believe to be one BAME family who attended a different school in my area growing up (I cannot be certain this is fact, but I certainly do not remember any BAME families then personally). I had been informed my local school was penalized by Ofsted for not being diverse or inclusive enough when I was a teenager. But it wasn't because they didn't want to, just because the only family included in the BAME category chose another school. It was only when I attended Huddersfield University that I discovered how diverse our population is. I try to explain how other countries can have flamboyant sounding names and at that time, the area I grew up in had not become accustomed to it. My real name is Caroline - that is pronounced Caroleeena Louise 'Brady' (My married name), my maiden name is Yugoslavian. Having a Czechoslovakian first name, with the spelling akin to an English one did not come easy, and try as I might to help people understand, I became Mrs Bucket (Bouquet to those that know what I am talking about). Fingers crossed that ties up my terrible description with 'different'? I move on to the disgusted stage, how can humanity stoop so low? Someone has to speak out, so I may as well be that person. I discuss my children a little more, being poorly this week, breakfast in bed and trying to organize my home continues. My website is getting there, and I mention a little about my eggs that I decorate. The Stoneage Round (square) house also continues with the 'daub' process and I run out of time right at the end. So, thanks for listening, please don't forget to share, send me messages about any questions you may have and head on over to my cjscrafts.co.uk website to see more of my makes as I continue to build that. Take care, CJ ..... p.s. be prepared for a few more tears...... (sorry) --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/caroline-brady/message
Brand New Episode out now Skies Turn Black The silence single review out now SKIES TURN BLACK Are Jamie Jordan - Vocals, Guitars George Turner - Guitars, Vocals Xander Isles - Keys, Vocals Daniel Woodhead - Bass Rob Halliday - Drums, Vocals ACCLAIMED METALLERS RETURN WITH STUNNING NEW SINGLE & VIDEO! Expressing a sound that draws from contemporary titans such as Avenged Sevenfold and Trivium, but also firmly nods to classic British Heavy Metal, SKIES TURN BLACK unleash monster choruses and ferocious dual guitar melodies to devasting effect. To date, the northern riff merchants have earned much critical acclaim, and it's easy to see why. Loaded with their all-consuming new single, The Silence, out now, the distinct metallers are set to stake their claim. Watch the video for the track, here – check out the Sielence https://youtu.be/hNqpyvZIdfQ Featuring axemen Jamie Jordan and George Turner, the band were born while they were studying music at Huddersfield University, where the guitar duo met bassist Danny Woodhead. After a slew of successful UK tours, the band dropped their self-titled debut EP, before taking a hiatus from regular gigging to work on their first full length album, No Place Like Home. SKIES TURN BLACK's debut album, No Place Like Home, landed in the Autumn of 2018, racking up glowing worldwide reviews, and was subsequently praised by Metal Hammer as having “some of 2018's best guitar work”. Jordan's vocal work was also revered with diverse and favourable comparisons spanning from Axl Rose to Sebastian Bach. After the release of No Place Like Home, the band regrouped, recruiting two new members: stickman Rob Halliday, who's water-tight drumming has added heightened groove to their rhythm section, and piano/keytarist Xander Isles, who allows the band to utilise more of their signature, classically influenced sound, especially in a live setting. Forging ahead with plans for a sophomore album, the band are also set to reveal a stunning new single, The Silence, which perfectly showcases their growing aptitude for delivering a bold metal cut laced with contrasting nuances and captivating themes. Sies Turn Black links https://www.facebook.com/SkiesTurnBlack/ https://open.spotify.com/artist/4sCElMDKCwtdjhP4Ib4gC3?si=0GEYJaV-SKuqcLGPEHlAzA I did kind of of feel with this track for the first part anyways I was left in limbo not sure really what the end goal was however I'm all. For bands trying different things and sounds. I love the intro reminded me of an old school Avenged sevenfold vibe from their 2005 album city of evil. Towards the end of the track is when I felt it really comes into its own with some awesome solos and a changed in pace You can find this episode and previous episode in the below links Spotfiy https://open.spotify.com/show/6Jj9SsrXxve44839dptihN… Apple https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/setting-the-tone/id1499390718 Google https://podcasts.google.com/?q=setting%20the%20tone podbean https://Settingthetone2.podbean.com

Director of Strategic Initiatives for her family business Paxman Scalp Cooling - Claire is one inspirational lady making a huge impact on many people's lives. This is a personal one for me, as Claire has supported me and my family over the last twelve months with her work. Talking how brand is important to the Paxman business, but also to Claire personally in her role as an ambassador, travelling the world and growing their business, innovating and impacting the lives of cancer patients for the better, globally. Links from the podcast: Paxman Scalp Cooling Website (https://paxmanscalpcooling.com/) Laura Crane Youth Cancer Trust (http://lauracranetrust.org/) The £1 million Paxman Scalp Cooling Research Centre (https://www.hud.ac.uk/news/2019/february/paxman-scalp-cooling-research-centre-huddersfield/) with Huddersfield University
In this episode, Claire speaks with Kate Aspin, a former deputy headteacher and now a senior lecturer at the University of Huddersfield. Kate begins by explaining her teaching journey, how she progressed three times in three years from class teacher to deputy headteacher and subsequently acting headteacher. During this time, Kate supported several Newly Qualified Teachers – including some who were finding the year a challenge - in Calderdale. This led to an interest in further developing her role in teacher training. Kate talks in detail about the different routes into teaching, the benefits of each route and the suitability for prospective students. She highlights the importance of gaining experience in schools and selecting a route that is best for you. She also mentions the challenges trainee teachers face, getting behaviour management right, the role of a mentor and working towards a LIFE/work balance. She notes the introduction of the new Early Career Framework that is due to be trialled in some local authorities - including Bradford and Greater Manchester in September 2020. This will then be rolled out nationally in the following year. The framework aims to provide continued support for Recently Qualified Teachers to help tackle teacher retention issues. Her conversation with Claire also covers the new Ofsted Framework for Initial Teacher Training and how it now mirrors the framework used within schools including ‘Deep Dives’. Kate was pleased to find that students are no longer graded but explains that this creates a ‘grey area’ around what constitutes as a ‘good’ standard and how this can be rolled out across all age ranges. KEY TAKEAWAYS Mentors are an invaluable resource. Mentors have a crucial role in a trainee teacher’s success. Trainee teachers need good mentors. Mentors should model good practice and verbalise how they got to a certain point and provide scaffolding for the trainee. Make the implicit explicit. Prepare for the NQT year. Trainees should use the final teaching placement to reflect on what worked well and what they would do in different situations throughout the year. For instance: queries with parents, changes with the curriculum etc. Think about organising the classroom to make it work for you and to make it your own. LIFE/work balance for trainee teachers and Newly Qualified Teachers. It is important to remember that Newly Qualified Teachers and Recently Qualified Teachers are still developing and still need support. Encourage trainees or NQTs to adapt resources for what they need and not reinvent the wheel. Good is good enough. They need space to reflect and think. Have regular meetings with induction tutors as NQTs and continue this support in the RQT year. Behaviour management is key. Children who are misbehaving are not learning. Therefore, new trainees must get on top on behaviour management from the outset. The first target for new trainees must relate to behaviour management. Trainees should become familiar with the strategies used in their placement schools and develop strategies that work for them. Be certain that it is the job for you. Get experience in a school to see ‘behind the scenes’. Understand the theory behind planning, get involved in meetings and understand that teaching is a full-on job. If you know what you are getting yourself into, the rest of it will come. If not, it can be a massive shock. BEST MOMENTS “You have to be certain it is the job for you. It has to run through you like a stick of rock.” “I’m looking for passion, realism, resilience, understanding and awareness of the subject knowledge that is involved [in teaching].” “I am willing to fail somebody. Children don’t get a say in who teaches them. They are the only people who don’t get a say. I’m not putting somebody out there who isn’t fit to teach my children or anybody else’s kids. It’s not fair on the children or the person.” “[Trainees] see an amazing teacher but they don’t have the skills to unpick where that all comes from. They don’t know what that magic is until they see it.” “We should be continuously developing ourselves as professionals but we need space to do that: space to think [and] space to reflect. I think this is greatest gift you can give your NQTs, is that space to say, ‘What’s not working in here?’” “The joy of the NQT [year] is you get to shut the door and if you haven’t got a TA, then it’s just you and the children. If you do have a hideous lesson that is a disaster then you reflect on it, pick yourself up, dust yourself down and you do it better next time.” “I think you have to be optimistic when you work with children.” “All schools need good teachers.” “I am not a big fan of governors walking into school and doing lesson observations on teachers… people in industries and from all walks of life, they don’t know what they are looking for. We need to rely on the senior leadership team.” VALUABLE RESOURCES Get into Teaching website: https://getintoteaching.education.gov.uk/explore-my-options The Teachers’ Podcast: https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheTeachersPodcast/ Classroom Secrets Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ClassroomSecretsLimited/ Classroom Secrets website: https://classroomsecrets.co.uk/ LIFE/work balance campaign: https://classroomsecrets.co.uk/lifeworkbalance-and-wellbeing-in-education-campaign-2019/ ABOUT THE HOST Claire Riley Claire, alongside her husband Ed, is one of the directors of Classroom Secrets, a company she founded in 2013 and which provides outstanding differentiated resources for teachers, schools, parents and tutors worldwide. Having worked for a number of years as a teacher in both Primary and Secondary education, and experiencing first-hand the difficulties teachers were facing finding appropriate high-quality resources for their lessons, Claire created Classroom Secrets with the aim of helping reduce the workload for all school staff. Claire is a passionate believer in a LIFE/work balance for those who work in education citing the high percentage of teachers who leave or plan to leave their jobs each year. Since February 2019, Classroom Secrets has been running their LIFE/work balance campaign to highlight this concerning trend. The Teachers’ Podcast is a series of interviews where Claire meets with a wide range of guests involved in the field of education. These podcasts provide exciting discussions and different perspectives and thoughts on a variety of themes which are both engaging and informative for anyone involved in education.
Frank thinks that Wilfred Heaton is one of the most innovative and exciting writers for brass band of the last century, and can’t think why his brilliance was not recognised and nurtured at the time. He even signed one of his masterpieces in the name of Paul Krask; it was never performed. Hear how Howard Snell brought Heaton’s wonderful Partita for band to its rightful place in the banding repertoire. We also have an early warning of ghosts and spooks and take this opportunity to celebrate the conferring by Huddersfield University of an Honorary Doctorate of Music on one of our greatest cornet players and educators; Philip McCann.
Introducing Rob Moore Today's guest joining us on the Join Up Dots business coaching podcast is Rob Moore. He is a man with a fascinating story of struggle and success. Nowadays he can look around his blossoming empire and think to himself "Man, i've done alright from myself" But that wasn't always the case. He wasn't always a self-made a millionaire and best selling author. In 2005, he was struggling to make ends meet as an artist. Born in Peterborough, he had a keen interest and studied architecture at Huddersfield University. Alongside it seems a clear evidence of wanting to do things his own way and make a name for himself by being a little bit different. This was evidence in 2003, when he painted graffiti on his house about killing cats. The Council didn't see this as a clear indication of a local Banksy in their midst and he was asked to remove it. He refused. Instead he started taking a keen interest in property renovation , and after working in the family pub for a number of years, Rob worked in a property investment company before setting up Progressive Property in 2007. How The Dots Joined Up For Rob Moore Now all of these milestones always look in hindsight that they were obvious movements with limited struggle. But this wasn't the case with today's guests As the struggling artists, drowning under debts of £50,000 and selling his work for less than it was worth he could have gone under As he says "Ever since I was 17 my life seemed to go steadily downhill In 1996 I had 2 serious injuries within the space of 6 months. I crashed my motorbike [and not by half]. It was my pride and joy at the time because I no longer looked the pillock that I did on the moped I had previously. It took me one year of begging to let my parents get me one. I spent 6 months in rehabilitation from multiple breaks That ruined any prospect of me becoming a professional Golfer of Cricketer, which I had genuine aspirations for. I held much resentment and never really recovered from that 6 months later my appendix burst [a close run in with the big man upstairs!] whilst in a nightclub [where I spent most of my youth] I spent the next 7 years always living in the shadow of myself and what I could have become, but felt had been taken away from me After pulling off an average degree and having pancreas failure I came back to Peterborough to help my family in their pub as my Dad was very ill. What was essentially a 3 month plan ended up being nearly 3 years All the while I knew that this was not what I ultimately wanted to do, but it is hard to break away when you think you are letting your family down. I finally broke away in 2003 and set out to make a living in my real true passion: And now with his latest book "I'm worth more" flying off the shelves does he see all these dots as necessary to where he is now? And with all great successes are there still many great doubts bubbling under the surface ready to throw him into meltdown? Well let's find out by bringing him on the show to start joining up those dots, with the one and only Rob Moore Show Highlights During the show we discussed such weighty subjects with Rob Moore such as: Why it is so important to strive to get more in your life, although never forget to enjoy that moment of success when you get there. Why Rob feels he is the luckiest person in the world, due to the fact that he gets to do what he loves to do everyday. The reasons why the world is often making things are lot harder by comparing ourselves with others, without knowing the story behind their success. And lastly...... Why acceptance in life is such a blessing, but there is no reason why we should be accepting a life of pain an displeasure.

Sexuality and Faces - How does our "Gaydar" work ? Most of us think we're pretty good at guessing when somebody's gay or straight, but what signals are we using to make our decision, and how often are we right ? Psychologists at Queen Mary University of London are, for the first time, trying to isolate the individual signals and patterns in somebody's face, in order to work out exactly what motivates us to make a snap decision about sexuality. Using cutting edge computer imagery, researchers have found a way of transferring male facial expressions onto female faces and vice versa, which means they can work out exactly how our "gaydar" works. Dr Qazi Rahman, assistant professor in Cognitive Biology, and PHd student, William Jolly, are hoping that their research will challenge stereotypes and prejudice by increasing awareness of how quickly, and often inaccurately, people classify each other. The Me Generation Professor Jean Twenge from San Diego State University in California has already coined the phrase, "Generation Me", describing the growing number of people who take it for granted that the self comes first. And she's less than flattering abut the downsides of this fundamental cultural shift. She talks to Claudia Hammond about her latest research using data mined from the American Freshman Survey. This study captures students' attitudes right back to 1966, and compares how current students rate themselves and their abilities compared to the generation 45 years ago. Unsurprisingly, she finds that the younger generation is more likely to view themselves as above average, even though these attitudes aren't born out by the facts. IQ Tests and Learning Disabilities Psychologists are considering whether guidelines on how learning disabilities are assessed should be revised, following concerns that IQ test scores could be depriving people of a formal diagnosis, and therefore access to services. Dr Simon Whitaker, consultant clinical psychologist and senior visiting research fellow at Huddersfield University, has completed research which raises questions about the reliability and consistency of IQ scores for people with learning difficulties. Current rules mean people must score less than 70 on an IQ test as well as fulfilling other criteria but Dr Whitaker claims IQ tests aren't reliable enough and that those missing out on a diagnosis are also missing out on access to services. Dr Theresa Joyce, consultant clinical psychologist and the person leading the British Psychological Society Review on how learning disabilities are diagnosed and assessed, tells Claudia Hammond that a range of scores is used before a diagnosis is reached.
