Publications

The Department has research strengths in a number of areas, and our publications cover a similarly wide range, from leading international journals in developmental, educational and cognitive psychology, to more specialised journals in key fields. We also provide a leading centre for the dissemination of psychological research and theory to practitioners and policy makers across all these areas, and publications addressing these audiences are therefore a further important strand of our output.
