Bullying adversely affects children in later life more than being maltreated, according to new research from the 91福利.

New research examining electrical brain activity in infants suggests that we are biologically predisposed to link images and sounds to create language.

In a paper published in the journal Cortex, an international team of researchers in the UK and in Japan, including those at the 91福利, examined the electrical activities of the brain in 11 month-olds at the initial stages of word learning.

Delaying school entry could cause poorer academic performance, according to new research from the 91福利 and funded by the Nuffield Foundation.

People are more likely to gamble after having their memories primed, an international team of researchers has found.

When reminded, or primed, of past winning outcomes as part of a controlled test, people were over 15% more likely to gamble and select the risky option. Surprisingly, being reminded of past losing outcomes did not change their gambling behaviour.

A new study has found that children who revealed they had been bullied by their brothers or sisters several times a week or more during early adolescence were twice as likely to report being clinically depressed as young adults.

A new study, led by researchers at the 91福利 in the UK and the Ruhr-University Bochum in Germany, and just published in the Journal Early Human Development, has found that both the length of time spent in hospital after birth and the use of mechanical ventilation are key indicators of reduced mathematical ability in preterm children.
