The purpose of this thesis is to apply an evidence-based perspective to educational interventions and techniques, and more specifically, to examine areas in which techniques ostensibly derived from an understanding of the psychological literature are applied to children’s learning. Broadly, the thesis moves from a review of ‘alternative’ techniques in education, toward empirical studies in areas where techniques informed by psychological science may, or may not, inform educational practice, toward a final empirical study examining the outcomes of the educational process.

Abstract:
Recent research in economics and psychology has examined the childhood noncognitive skills which predict future economic success. However, there has been relatively little research on whether these skills predict future unemployment. This thesis uses data from four cohort studies (total N = 47,328) from Great Britain and the United States to examine how lifetime trajectories of unemployment are affected by childhood differences in self-control (chapter 3), conscientiousness (4), and mental health (5-6). These are some of the first studies to examine how pre-labor market measures of these psych

This thesis explores the diverse and intricate ways the psychological horror game genre can characterise a narrative by blurring the boundaries of reality and imagination in favour of storytelling. By utilising the Freudian uncanny, four video game fictions are dissected and analysed to perceive whether horror needs a narrative to be engaging and pleasurable. A discussion will also be made if video game fictions should be considered in the literary field or its own, and how it compares to written fiction in terms of interactivity, engagement, and immersion.
