  • Media Contact

I am responsible for individual differences at London Met University.

I am particularly interested in the psychology of the media (advertising, violence & aggression, psychophysiological indices and pre-trial publicity) and computer games (violence, enjoyment, psychophysiological indices).

I have just recently concluded a very successful research project at the British Science Museum in London, where I was invited to design the museums live science projects. The research focused on how playing computer games may impact positively on players immune function.

Primary Interests:

  • Aggression, Conflict, Peace
  • Applied Social Psychology
  • Communication, Language
  • Emotion, Mood, Affect
  • Evolution and Genetics
  • Neuroscience, Psychophysiology
  • Nonverbal Behavior
  • Organizational Behavior
