Hello, I am an East Dulwich resident, clinical psychologist, and 3rd year PhD student in Developmental Psychology at Durham University. I'm currently looking for 60 adult participants (18 and over) for one of my studies, which is a (mildly!) interesting computer-based attention task. It takes about 45 minutes on a laptop that I provide, and I can meet you anywhere to do this - at your home, at my home, at a local cafe...anywhere that has wireless internet.


In the task, which is very non-traumatic, you will be asked to identify the location of vertical lines displayed briefly on the screen over a series of 8 trials. You will then watch 12 short clips of mothers and infants playing together and write something about the interactions. Finally, you will write a description of a close friend and your current romantic partner (if applicable).


My PhD research is looking broadly at mother-infant interaction and improving interventions for mothers with mental health difficulties, and this piece of work will be adding to our understanding in this area.


I've gotten full ethical approval for the project from my university, which I'd be happy to discuss with you further.


Please contact me via the ED Forum if you would like to participate or would like more information. I am recruiting through at least December 2014.

      GALA 2026

      By kiera · Posted

      Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
