Research summary
My research focuses predominantly on attachment theory, investigating how intenal working models impact wellbeing and mental health via individual differences in emotion regulation and the reguatlion of thoughts and attention. I am also interested in the contributio of childhood experiences, including adversity, abuse and neglect to wellbeing. Indicative topics include:
- attachment theory
- emotion regulation (especially the regulation of positive emotion) from an attachment perspective
- dispositiional mindfulness and its correlates and antedendents
- ACEs (adverse childhood experiences), childhood abuse and neglect, especially emotional abuse and emotional neglect
- trauma informed approaches in services, including police and schools
I am a founding member of the .Trauma, Adversity and Relationships Group which brings together researchers from different areas in the University and external bodies.
In 2021, I initiated Advocates for ACES, a University-funded project to raise awareness of ACEs and their impacts in undergraduate students across a range of faculties including Law, Education and Medicine. This initiative invites speakers from different areas of practice to contextualise how adversity affects the people, with whom students will come into contact in their future roles'
Current research interests
My research is mainly focused on the impact of childhood experiences on adult functioning. A key focus is applying an attachment framework to the understanding of individual differences in self-regulation of emotion, thought and attention, to understand how these impact on wellbeing and mental health. Previous projects, including PhD projects have applied an attachment framework to the following areas: individual differences in dispositional mindfulness, individual differences in trait anger and aggressive behaviour, coping with terminal conditions such as brain tumour and enduring conditions such as psychosis, or psychosis symptoms such as paranoia. A second focus is on the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES) on self-regulation, behaviour and mental health. Projects here have focused on the relationship between trauma and abuse (particularly emotional abuse) and mental health; investigating attitudes towards trauma informed practices in the police and schools and evaluation of trauma awareness interventions. A recent project, funded by the Scottish Institute of Policing Research involved working with Police Scotland evaluating an ACEs intervention. I am open to enquiries about PhD supervision in these areas.Past research interests
Psychosis - use of the attachment framework to understand the development and maintenance of psychosis symptoms such as paranoia. Relationship between childhood trauma and adversity and psychosis. Discourse - investigating how discourse affects interactions, particularly those with healthcare professionals or other professionals, for example in relation to childbirth choices and interactions between emergency call handlers and members of the public dealing with cardiac arrest (Resuscitation Research Group) https://www.rrg.scot/projects/the-first-first-responder/Knowledge exchange
