- The Bioarchaeological Investigation of Childhood and Social Age: Problems and Prospects (2008, background): “The theme of oppositional dichotomies and the inadequacy of these frameworks as a tool for understanding childhood in modern society is becoming apparent in recent texts on childhood social theory (Prout 2005).”
- Researching with Young Children: Seeking Assent (2011, background): “The terms adult and child are mutually exclusive, yet the multiple cultures and contexts of childhood can generate shifting boundaries as the nature of childhood itself becomes more ambiguous and diverse (Prout 2005).”
- The new wave of childhood studies: Breaking the grip of bio-social dualism? (2012, background): “…childhood are reduced to a single biological or social principle, and the other ‘additive’, whereby ‘nature and culture remain . . . separate, incommensurable entities that are then seen as contributing a distinct proportion of the material that goes into the making of childhood’ (Prout, 2005: 3).”
- The Sexual Abuse of Boys in Organized Male Sports (2009, background): “Theorists in this field have been highly critical of the developmentalist approach that ascribes standardised patterns and timeframes to childhood development, the corollary of which are the inevitable ‘scientific’ labels to indicate normality or otherwise (see Jenks, 2005; Prout, 2005).”
- Methodological Immaturity in Childhood Research? (2008, background): “However, this conceptual move is increasingly problematic, particularly as it seems to give childhood research a considerable ‘lag’ behind conceptual movements in the wider humanities and social sciences (Prout, 2005).”
- Children who carry stones in their pockets: on autotelic material practices in everyday life (2013, background): “…out this interface are taken as diverse and ever proliferating – and until recently to an overlooked extent relational-material (see Fenwick and Edwards 2011; Lenz-Taguchi 2011; Nieuwenhuys 2011; Prout 2000, 2005; Woodyer 2008) as well as non-linear and ‘messy’ (Horton and Kraftl 2008; Law 2003).”
