Back in 2007, there were some articles written about a study by a woman named Mandy Shackleton at Hull University Marine Sciences Centre in the UK, who looked at diver damage to coral reefs, and concluded that women were better divers than men.

While it's pretty easy to find the articles about her study online, they aren't very detailed on the research, and mostly focus on the conclusion. I would really like to know more about how the study was done and what the actual data looked like.

Does anyone know if the actual study itself was ever published anywhere? Or where I might find more information on the research?

Any help in tracking down this information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
