Alison Wadeley, Senior Lecturer: Psychology

I teach in the Department of Psychology specialising in Psychological Research Methods and Statistics and Applied Psychology.

I write revision guides, articles and text-books for AS, A level and undergraduate psychology students. I am pleased to be a member of the editorial team for Psychology Review (a journal for A/AS Psychology students) to which I am also a regular contributor.

My post-graduate research was in the field of health psychology and I am currently engaged in research into the impact of naturally occurring sleep fragmentation on cognitive functioning in people with Parkinson's disease and their carers and families. I am hoping to be able to extend this into research into the effects of sleep fragmentation on parents of babies and young children.

I've shared an office with Mike Cardwell for over 30 years which must be some kind of claim to fame.
