Can't believe no one has replied yet!! Just saw this, but they're all listed on the spec, I think it's 8182 for us, the /01 or /02 just means whichever paper the unit would be on. Anything named will be something they could assess you on e.g. Hughes' 'policeman doll study'. If you're weak on any evaluation areas, using unnamed studies can really help back your points up, so do keep that in mind.

Wishing you luck on your studies :smile:
