Early Intervention in Psychiatry, 19(4), Article e70035. https://doi.org/10.1111/eip.70035

Background: Individuals with an at risk mental state (ARMS) often experience hallucinatory‐type experiences, which we refer to as unusual sensory experiences (USE). However, it is not known whether individuals want to know more about USE or discuss t...

Lack of effect of a parent‐delivered early language intervention: Evidence from a randomised controlled trial completed during COVID‐19 (2024)
Journal Article
Burgoyne, K., Hargreaves, S., Akhter, N., Cramman, H., Eerola, P., Einbeck, J., & Menzies, V. (online). Lack of effect of a parent‐delivered early language intervention: Evidence from a randomised controlled trial completed during COVID‐19. JCPP Advances, Article e12279. https://doi.org/10.1002/jcv2.12279

Background: Parents play a key role in their child's early development but evidence that parental engagement strategies are effective is unclear. The current study evaluated a parent‐delivered early language teaching programme that aimed to support c...

Multisite educational trials: estimating the effect size and its confidence intervals (2021)
Journal Article
Singh, A., Uwimpuhwe, G., Li, M., Einbeck, J., Higgins, S., & Kasim, A. (2022). Multisite educational trials: estimating the effect size and its confidence intervals. International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 45(1), 18-38. https://doi.org/10.1080/1743727x.2021.1882416

In education, multisite trials involve randomisation of pupils into intervention and comparison groups within schools. Most analytical models in multisite educational trials ignore that the impact of an intervention may be school dependent. This stud...
