Hello! I am a Lecturer in Psychology, at the University of Leicester. I am interested in how behavioural science and psychology can meaningfully address socioeconomic health inequalities and social determinants of health. This requires a focus not only on how socio-ecologies impact our daily realities, well-being, behaviour and psychological appraisals, but also studying beliefs about wider structural and political systems that give rise to them and how people think these systems can and should be influenced.

In the recent past, I spent a lot of time thinking about how to teach and apply ethics and open science principles in UG and PG courses. This work remains important, but increasingly this energy is being spent on how to use social and political psychology insights to overcome the fractured and unsettling times we find ourselves in. If this is something you’re working on too, get in touch so we can figure it out together!

Have a look around to see more, check out research activities and pre-registrations at osf.io/gmz9h, follow me on bluesky [at]emkbridger.bsky.social or get in touch with me directly at eb441[dot][at]leicester[dot]ac[dot]uk.
