TheJames D. Allan Memorial LectureJames Allan was a paediatrician in Stockport for over 30 years. He was born in Scotland in 1913 and died in 1979. He graduated in Medicine from Edinburgh in 1935 and subsequently attained MRCP 1938, MD 1940, and FRCP in 1947. In his professional work he made many original studies of cystic fibrosis and inborn errors of metabolism. A memorial lectureship was established by Mrs Allan in collaboration with James' colleagues in Stockport. The first memorial lecture published on the following pages shows his wide range of interest and his concern for the development of children.

摘要:

SummaryUsing a test—observe—test design with a sample of 29 4‐year‐old children, this exploratory study investigated associations between activity choices in a typical progressive nursery school and IQ, socio‐economic status (SES) and sex. Over the 4‐month period of the study the group as a whole displayed enhanced intellectual capacity though several children failed to show improvement. These losers spent more time on physical and non‐play activity and more time unoccupied. The low SES group spent more time alone, more time on social—personal activity, more passive time with adults and more time in solitary play. Clear sex differences in activity ch

摘要:

SummaryIt is apparent from extensive literature reviews that only a few authors have attempted to enhance the quality of their research in the area of child abuse. Despite the refinements made by these authors there are still gross weaknesses apparent in much of the research. These deficits are clearly linked to the problems encountered in doing research in childhood psychopathology in general where there is fragmentation both on an empirical and theoretical level. The aim of this paper is to represent some of the many issues which have to be taken into account when conducting research into childhood psychopathology in general and child abuse in particular and when making comparative evaluations of the research. Amongst the issues discussed are: the purpose of the research; naturalistic v. experimental continuum; techniques of data collection; expectations of subjects; experimental bias; individual v. group observation; sampling issues viz. definition of abuse; age at which assault occurred; time lapse investigation and last known incidence of abuse; definition of subject sample; demographic variables; technical issues and behavioural research, e.g. specificity v. generality of behaviour; unit of use and time sampling.
