Reader in Psychology, City, University of London I am a cognitive and social psychologist based at City, University of London. My research focuses on exploring the psychosocial processes at play in important domains such as politics, religion, morality, social status dynamics, and social media interactions.
Associate Professor, Department of Psychology, Norwegian University of Science and Technology My substantive areas of interest are resilience processes and outcomes for positive mental health. I have been leading the Resilience to Loneliness (RESLON) research, which is being expanded to investigate the complex interplay between biological systems, psychological and social-environmental factors in loneliness for mental and physical health outcomes. The RESLON-MPH project will use various research approaches combining intensive longitudinal data (e.g., experienced sampling methods), large-scale genetic studies (eg genome-wide association studies), and intranasal oxytocin trials. I am also involved in the research at BASE which aims to improve understanding of psychological problems and disorders, and to evaluate the effectiveness of evidence-based treatments inspired by the metacognitive control system model. My research focuses on the application and assessment of quantitative methods in the social and behavioural sciences, covering a broad range of topics in design and data analysis, using complex methodology from both structural equations and multilevel modelling perspectives, complexity science and psychological network analysis. I try to combine these quantitative and substantive interests into a single programme of research that seeks to understand and promote adaptive psychological functioning and resilience.
