Our project brings together research from crowd psychology and evacuation research to design and build virtual reality experiments that explore crowd responses to perceived threats. This summary outlines some of the main advantages and considerations that we have found when combining our research areas. We discuss novel ways to overcome practical and ethical limitations when researching responses to emergencies and behaviour in large groups, methodological advances that address common issues such as interdependence of data and experimental control, the ability to integrate and test theory into study design, and the benefits of triangulating diverse data collection methods to understand how and why crowd reactions occur in emergencies in real-time.

The aim of this study is to investigate how the African novelists have domesticated the English language to suit their environments, experience and purpose. Specifically, the literary pieces – The Last of the Strong Ones (Strong Ones), House of Symbols (symbols), Children of the Eagle (Children) and the Trafficked of Akachi Adimora-Ezeigbo were x-rayed. This exploration adopted the Hallidian Systemic Functional Linguistics, which highlights how language is used. The textual method of data analysis, the primary and secondary data collection methods were employed and the results showed that the African literary artists in general and the Igbo Nigerian novelists in particular have taken on a unique style of writing in the African vernacular style. For that reason, the speeches of the characters are laced with dignified local appositives, high profile Igbo songs and tales, studded local proverbs, lexical transfers, ritzy transliterations and so on; and these have given African rhythm to the English language. This notwithstanding, the aura, glamour and credibility of the English language as the medium of communication are retained.
