Research Expertise

My internationally recognised research programme focuses on applying psychological science to answer two main research questions: 1) How can we best meet the psychosocial needs of patients living with long-term physical and mental health conditions? 2) How can we communicate health risks (arising from behaviours and environmental threats) to keep people healthy? I make important theoretical, methodological and practical contributions in these areas. My highly-cited innovative research on how people with eating disorders seek reward and avoid punishment in experimental conditions produced novel insights into impaired decision-making processes that negatively impact on health. My research on stress and coping among parents of children with autism has over 300 citations and is the 5th most cited article in the Journal's history. My applications of novel statistical approaches (e.g., network analysis; sensitivity of psychological measures) have been highly cited; I was invited to write an open access tutorial paper on network analysis. My research has real-world impact. For example, my current MCRG-HRB grant examines how we can train adolescents in socio-economically marginalised communities to deliver health behaviour change interventions to their peers. My research for EPA Ireland informs the national radon awareness programme policy in terms of content and process of delivery. I have published or in press 110 peer reviewed journal articles; I frequently publish in journals ranked in the top 20% in the Clarivate journal rankings; one of my most recent Senior Author publications was in the British Journal of Dermatology (IF=7, top 5% ranking). My Google Scholar h index is 32, with i10-index of 62. My citation count is 4,870. I have given invited research seminars at leading research-intensive Russell Group universities (e.g., Kings College London, University of St. Andrews). Based on my research impact, I have been invited to give keynote talks at national and international scientific conferences.
