A range of methods for assessing change exist, but it remains unclear which are best to use and under which circumstances. Method: This paper reviews four indices of change (difference scores (DS), crossing clinical threshold (CCT), reliable change index (RCI) and added value scores (AVS) drawing on outcome data for 9,764 young people from child and adolescent mental health services across England. Results: Looking at DS, the t test for time one - time two scores indicated a significant difference between baseline and follow up scores, with a standardised effect size of d = 0.40.

The project area is the Peninsula of Devon and Cornwall, two neighbouring counties in the South West of England with a combined population of 1,664,500, 1,135,000 in Devon and 529,500 in Cornwall. Both counties have a rural element, a strong maritime heritage, are tourist regions and important retirement locations. The Peninsula area embraces numerous heritage sites, national parks and some of the nation’s finest tourist sites, notably the internationally renowned Eden Project. Devon and Cornwall share significant common features and have similar challenges and ambitions. In terms of administration, Cornwall has a single unitary authority whilst Devon consists of a County Council with 8 local government districts and 2 separately administered Unitary Authorities. Both Devon and Cornwall are actively engaged with the South West Regional Development Authority (SWRDA) and the Government Office of the South West (GOSW). Whilst the area’s attractiveness as a rural location is a positive feature, its distance and remoteness from the rest of England creates logistical problems for businesses wishing

  • Taught Handbook 2017-2018
    University of Bristol Faculty of Biomedical Sciences SWBio DTP: Research Methods for Life Sciences Taught Handbook 2017-2018 Page 1 of 24 WELCOME Dear Students, Welcome to the SWBio DTP. I’m sure you are excited at the prospect of starting your postgraduate study. In this first year you will undertake a taught course, of which I am the Course Director. For the taught course you will undertake two rotation projects, as well as an integrated series of other units. Together, this provides you with many of the key skills you will need to allow you to succeed and make excellent progress in your following years of study. Please read this handbook thoroughly, which contains all the key information for your taught first year. Each of you are registered at your home institution, but this taught first year is based at the University of Bristol, in the Faculty of Biomedical Sciences. Importantly this means that University of Bristol regulations govern this first year. During this year you will all come together as a group for various aspects of this course, at each of the institutions that make-up the DTP– universities of Bath, Bristol, Cardiff, Exeter and Rothamsted Research. If you have any questions or require any further information, please contact Ruth Batterham ([email protected]) or me ([email protected]). Finally, I’m sure you have already been in touch with Samantha Southern. You will get more emails from her during the year and I ask that you reply to Samantha swiftly, since this helps this programme run to the benefit of each and everyone of you.

  • Dear University of Exeter Council / Falmouth University Board of Governors
    FXU Penryn Campus Penryn Cornwall TR10 9FE Tel: 01326 255861 Dear University of Exeter Council / Falmouth University Board of Governors, I am writing this on behalf of the students of the University of Exeter, Cornwall Campuses / Falmouth University, to both University Governing bodies, with regards to student accommodation issues. The University will have received a copy of the motion students submitted to the FXU on 23rd February 2016 in which we made the institutions aware of concerns students have raised to us at our recent Annual General Meeting. The submission and the subsequent unanimous student vote in favour of the motion means that FXU are now mandated to the act upon the following statement: “FXU should lobby the University of Exeter, Falmouth University and FX Plus to oppose any expansion of student numbers at this time, until a sustainable solution to the housing crisis is found and agreed upon by all parties, including the local town councils of Falmouth and Penryn, and the FXU.” The mandate comes about as students have foreseen there being substantial problems for both returning students and new students looking for accommodation in the private sector; in both the short and longer term. This letter is FXU’s first formal step in response to this mandate. It is important for us to state that FXU is committed to supporting our two universities to be even more successful and, as a result, completely understand that they naturally want to grow further. We also understand that this growth could bring real benefits to students, staff, our two universities and to the local community.

Below are indications of how each partner has elected to treat this issue together with links to their websites where further information may be found. The rule / regulation / decision that applies to you is the one made by your LEAD INSTITUTION (i.e. the institution where your first supervisor is based).
