Note. For key words related to ‘Train’, the term ‘train*’ was not used as it resulted in many irrele-vant articles, largely related to the term ‘training’. Subject headings in the British Education In-dex were different to those used in PsycInfo due to database differences, and an analogous term for ‘railroad trains’ did not exist. Additionally, though there was functionality to set a limit to childhood; this removed many relevant papers and so was not used.
