Health-related attitudes and behaviour
My current research examines the relationships between depression and suicidalideation and other health-related factors including chronic disease, obesity, mental health literacy, and use of alternative medicines.
I also have an interest in health-related attitudes and behaviour and the influence of factors such as behavioural outcome evaluations and social norms.
