Postgraduate teaching:

My postgraduate teaching involves giving lectures to first, second and third year

clinical psychology trainees who are studying towards the Doctor of Clinical

Psychology (DClin Psy).

I lecture on clinical health psychology topics integrating psychological theories

with the practice of health and clinical psychologists working in hospital settings.

I lecture on posttraumatic stress disorder with a focus on theories and models

explaining traumatic reactions.

I lecture on philosophy of mental health in which I examine clinical psychology

concepts such as schizophrenia or psychotherapeutic concepts from a

philosophical perspective.

I lecture on the quantitative research methodology in clinical psychology,

statistical analysis using SPSS, conducting systematic review and literature

review.

As part of their training, all clinical psychology trainees are required to do a

psychotherapy process project. I give advice on the design and analysis of their

projects.

I lecture on publishing in academic journals and supervise trainees on poster and

oral presentations in conferences.

I supervise service evaluation or development projects that all trainees are

required to complete. On average, I supervise 7 projects a year. I liaise with

clinical psychology service providers working in the National Health Service

(NHS) and arrive at topics for the projects. I then supervise trainees in designing,

analysing and writing up the projects in order to meet the research objectives that

different NHS Trusts have set for them.

I supervise the Doctor of Clinical Psychology theses (see later).

I supervise PhD theses (see later).

Research in Clinical/Health Psychology

I initiated and designed all of the projects below. Some projects have been completed,

submitted for publication or published. Some are waiting to be written up for

publication. Some are ongoing in terms of data collection or have recently begun.

3

All of the following projects resulted from joint partnerships with service providers

working in NHS Trusts, primary care, prison services, charity organizations and different

departments within the same University.

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and medical illnesses or events

An investigation into the relationship between posttraumatic stress disorder

resulting from past traumas and recently developed chronic idiopathic urticaria

(CIU). This project looks at the extent, after controlling for perceived stress, that

posttraumatic stress disorder from past traumas relates to the severity of chronic

idiopathic urticaria and psychiatric co-morbidity and whether this relationship is

influenced by personality factors, coping strategies, and the way in which

emotions are regulated.

To follow on from the above project, I have recently started looking at the extent

to which repressive coping would moderate the relationship between

posttraumatic stress disorder and chronic idiopathic urticaria, controlling for

perceived stress.

I have recently started a project looking at the relationship between posttraumatic

stress disorder resulting from past traumas and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).

It also aims to investigate the extent to which different defense styles would

moderate this relationship.

An investigation into the risk factors associated with posttraumatic stress disorder

and myocardial infarction. The research aims to ascertain the prevalence of

posttraumatic stress disorder following myocardial infarction and, controlling for the

severity of myocardial infarction, to determine whether patients’ personality traits

and intrinsic coping styles are predictors to posttraumatic stress disorder following

myocardial infarction.

To follow on from the above project, in conjunction with medical colleagues in

Greece, another project looks at the relationship between posttraumatic stress

disorder following myocardial infarction, attachment styles and illness perception.


and epilepsy. It aims to examine the extent to which self-efficacy and

alexithymia would influence this relationship.

An investigation into the predictors and prevalence rates for posttraumatic

stress disorder following stillbirth and the association with locus of control.

Posttraumatic stress disorder among the criminal population

I have started a project looking at the relationship between posttraumatic stress

disorder resulting from past traumas and a tendency to commit violent crime. It

4

aims to investigate to what extent spirituality and forgiveness may moderate this

relationship.

In collaboration with the University of Nanjing in China and the Prison Fellowship

in Hong Kong, this is an investigation into posttraumatic stress disorder resulting

from committing a range of violent crimes (e.g. murder, manslaughter) among

prisoners in China.

Other projects on posttraumatic stress disorder

I have also started a project looking at the relationship between child abuse

trauma and obsessive compulsive disorder. It aims to examine the extent to which

mental pollution would mediate this relationship.

An investigation into the relationship between posttraumatic stress disorder and

terror management theory. It aims to investigate whether this relationship is

influenced by the type of life-threatening event, the degree of self-efficacy,

traumatic growth and attachment style with significant others. This is also a

cross-cultural study in which we investigate to what extent terror management

reactions would differ between British and Lithuanian samples.

Stress and burnout

A comparison of nursing staff working in a hospice and those working in an

oncology unit in terms of the degree of stress and burnout. It also aims to

establish whether nurses’ competence in coping with death and engagement

in rituals/practices when faced with the death of patients are associated with

the degree of stress and burnout experienced.

An investigation into the level of stress and burnout among nursing staff who

look after people with learning disability who display challenging behaviour

and whether management issues, personality factors, health problems and the

severity of challenging behaviour are predictors to stress and burnout.

Research on Clinical/Health Psychology which is at planning stage

An investigation into whether one’s exposure to previous traumatic life

events, illness perception, and perceptions of oneself are associated with

general health problems and the severity of hirsutism.

In collaboration with medical colleagues from Greece, this study looks at

whether interpersonal dependency style, attachment style and sensation

seeking personality traits would predict posttraumatic stress disorder

following spinal cord injury.

5

In collaboration with prisons in Greece, this study looks at defense

mechanisms that these prisoners employ in order to cope with posttraumatic

stress symptoms resulting from the act of committing homicide.

An investigation into the effectiveness of Eye Movement Desensitization

and Reprocessing (EMDR) among patients who suffer from chronic pain.

An investigation into posttraumatic stress disorder following breast cancer

and reconstruction.

In collaboration with the University of Ulster, we are planning a project to

examine the relationship between posttraumatic stress and terror

management theory and to investigate whether religious coping would

influence this relationship.

Community outreach

Training and consultancy: I help to develop an enterprise environment by

developing a training and research-based Trauma, Resilience and Recovery

Centre in the Clinical Psychology Unit. The central aim is to improve the skills of

professionals. To this end, we provide consultancy services for professionals

working in different organizations in the community. We also provide short

courses and continued professional development workshops for them. These

professionals include therapists, clinical psychologists, social workers, nurses,

social services employees and solicitors.

I also organize an annual research conference which aims to bring together

clinical service providers working in NHS Trusts and trainees and bring them up

to date with some latest research findings in different areas in clinical psychology.

Applied research: Every year, service providers from the National Health Service

seek advice from us regarding evaluation of their services. In conjunction with

clinical psychology trainees, I liaise with these services providers and identify

what their current needs are, which aspects of their service they want to be

evaluated, evaluate the effectiveness of their services, identify the barriers which

make it difficult for them to deliver the service effectively and recommend

possible ways forward to enhance the effectiveness of their service.

Curriculum development

I was involved with preparing the document which subsequently obtained the re-

validation of the Plymouth Clinical Psychology Programme from the British

Psychological Society (BPS).

I am on the Academic and Research Committee which ensures that all aspects of

the academic and research components of the curriculum for the Doctor of

6

Clinical Psychology course meet the requirement of the British Psychological

Society (BPS).

I am also on the Programme Planning Committee which is accountable to the

Faculty Board. It aims to assist in the formulation and approving of all policies or

documents pertaining to the effective delivery of high quality clinical psychology

training.

I am also on the staff-student liaison committee in which we consider any matter

pertaining to the operation or policy of the programme raised by trainees and staff

and to agree action plans as appropriate. It takes forward to the Programme

Planning Committee agreed agenda items arising from discussion at this

committee.

Academic leadership: Research Director

I am the Research Director in the Clinical Psychology Teaching Unit where I take an

academic leadership role in which I:

oversee and monitor staff research progress, giving feedback on their manuscripts

and giving advice on preparing their manuscripts for publication.

mentor less experienced staff to engage in research or writing up data for

publication.

organize monthly research or work-in-progress seminars for staff in which they

present findings of their studies, ideas for new research projects or research grant

applications.

identify funding opportunities for staff.

approval for their final year projects.

work with the Faculty of Health and Social Work to maximize our research output

for the Research Excellence Framework.

Recruitment of international postgraduate students from Asia

I have initiated and implemented a plan for increasing recruitment of international

postgraduate students from Hong Kong and other parts of China. The plan is to 1)

recruit international students from the above countries to come to study in

Plymouth, 2) recruit and supervise those who are unable to come to the UK by

means of supervisors’ termly visits in their own countries, a postgraduate summer

school in Plymouth, e-mails, and web-casting. I have started focusing on Hong

Kong initially since my private annual visit to Hong Kong has made it possible to

do so. Two higher education colleges in Hong Kong have already agreed to

collaborate with us.

The School Research Committee

I am on the School Research Committee which aims to discuss strategies for

meeting the requirements for the Research Excellence Framework (REF). Also, it

aims to set research policy for the staff in the School and make decisions on the

kind of infrastructure (e.g. research interests groups, sabbaticals) that can be

implemented to best support staff in completing their research, applying for

research funding and collaborating with colleagues from other disciplines (e.g.

medicine, social work) within and outside of the University.

Examination officer

I am the examination officer for the Doctor of Clinical Psychology course. I

liaise with external examiners with regard to moderating the overall standard of

trainees’ course work and the feedback that we give to our trainees. I organize

exam boards and also arrange appropriate internal and external examiners for the

Doctoral theses vivas.

Ethics Committee for clinical psychology

I set up and am the Chair of the Clinical Psychology Ethics Committee which

aims to grant ethical approval to clinical psychology trainees for carrying out their

12. International collaboration with China and Europe

In conjunction with the University of Nanjing, China, and the Prison

Fellowship Hong Kong Limited, we are in the process of setting up a series

of studies looking at the posttraumatic stress of homicide perpetrators in two

prisons in Nanjing. A couple of these studies would bear similarities with

the studies in Greece (see later) which will allow us to explore the ethnic

differences between East and West in terms of posttraumatic stress reactions.

However, there will be new research questions and hypotheses in the studies

in China which have not been tested in the sample in Greece.

In conjunction with the medical professionals from two hospitals in Beijing,

China, we completed a cross-cultural study on posttraumatic stress following

stroke. This study compared posttraumatic stress reactions between Chinese

and British stroke patients.

In collaboration with the prisons of Corfu and Koridallos in Athens, Greece,

we completed a project on the posttraumatic stress of homicide perpetrators

resulting from the act of committing homicide and on the association

23

between posttraumatic stress and dissociation experience. We are in the

process of setting up a follow-up study in which we look at further defense

mechanisms that these prisoners employ in order to cope with posttraumatic

stress symptoms.

In collaboration with the Institute for the Rehabilitation of Disabled People

in Athens, Greece, we completed a project on post-spinal cord injury

posttraumatic stress disorder and its relationship with locus of control. We

are planning another study which aims to identify whether interpersonal

dependency style, attachment style and sensation seeking personality traits

would predict post-spinal cord injury posttraumatic stress disorder.

In conjunction with a University Hospital in Athens, Greece, we completed a

project on posttraumatic stress following myocardial infarction which

investigates the relationship between posttraumatic stress following

myocardial infarction, attachment style and illness perception.

In conjunction with Lithuanian Christian College in Lithuania, we are

completing a cross-cultural study in which we compare the terror

management reactions between British and Lithuanian participants.

In collaboration with the University of Ulster, Ireland, we are examining the

relationship between posttraumatic stress and terror management theory and

investigating whether religious coping would influence this relationship.
