Nicola AbbottLecturer in Social Psychology, Department of Psychology and Human Development, IOE, 果冻影院's Faculty of Education and Society I am a Social and Developmental Psychologist with expertise in bystander intervention in the context of school bullying. I am particularly interested in bullying that is biased-based (e.g. based on gender, race and ethnicity, country of origin, sexuality and disability etc.) and anti-bullying interventions. For example, I am interested in what makes someone feel confident enough to intervene when they witness bullying, especially when the bullying is directed at someone who belongs to a different social group (e.g. they are from a different ethnic background).听 Other research interests include Children and Young People's Mental Health听触 Ethnic minorities |

Katey WarranResearch Fellow in Social Science (Assets for Resilient Communities in Mental Health [MARCH] Network),听Institute of Epidemiology and听Health Katey is an interdisciplinary researcher who draws upon the fields of sociology, psychology, performance science, and philosophy to examine complex arts interventions and how they impact upon mental health and wellbeing. More specifically, she is interested in how group arts engagement can support social cohesion and improve social relationships, exploring this from multiple perspectives. For example, using theories from sociology to understand collective emotions and how they cement social bonds, drawing upon social psychology to explore the benefits of shared group identities, and applying theories from the philosophy of religion to unpack the more tacit, experiential aspects of creativity that unite people through shared ineffable experiences.
