Why Patients Aren’t Always Right
Do patients always know what is best for them? Much as patient choice places patients at the heart of health care, it can do harm to both the patient and the health care system.

I'm a lecturer - mollycoddling universities are setting young people up to fail
Students can watch lectures online at home and avoid presentations if they make them too anxious - we're failing to prepare them for the world of work

I’m new here so have posted a few bits I’m proud of with my two hats - a university employee (it’s not great) and a psychologist (perception is key).

The Words We Use Give Our Children Their Scripts for Life
We use words to think, to express who we are, and to describe how we feel. But while words describe, they can also change how we see ourselves and the world around us.

What Lessons Would We Give to Our Younger Selves?
What lessons would you give your younger self? Can we learn from the lessons of others? Young adults are often wise beyond their years and already know the secret to happiness.

I’m a lecturer – this is why the UK needs foreign students
Overseas students are a vital income stream, and bring diversity too – but accepting those with poor English poses challenges for all

When Social Support Can Do Harm
Not all social support is positive. Some people can mean well but still kill with kindness. Others don't even mean well.

I’m a lecturer – universities have been ruined by willy-waving managers
A university lecturer for decades isn’t surprised attendance is falling – higher education is a mess due to underfunding and overspending
