🌟 DHP members! 🌟 New issue of Health Psychology Update out now! This month, you can hear from the new HPU editors Professor Caroline Horton and @drcmcknight.bsky.social, our outgoing DHP chair @aims-aubeeluck.bsky.social and our incoming chair Amy Baraniak!

Today, I’m joining @prostatecanceruk.bsky.social & men across the whole of the UK - to share a potentially lifesaving message⤵️ You don’t need a finger up the bum to test for prostate cancer. In fact, the first step is a simple blood test you can get free from your GP

You need to update your knowledge. The PSA test is a first step not a final diagnosis. MRIs and safer biopsies have changed the landscape. The challenge is what to do about raised PSA value not to pretend people don’t have them

Alongside the conference, an evening gala dinner will be taking place, free of charge. To register for the gala dinner, please make sure you answer the relevant questions on the registration form! www.bps.org.uk/event/divisi... #HealthPsychology #AnnualConference #DHP

@edstupple.bsky.social ❤️

I am frequently asked if people can reproduce published images of the Behaviour Change Wheel and the COM-B model. Please, no need to contact me as the answer is always yes, if cited correctly. #OpenScience. The original article is implementationscience.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.... .. & book ...

We’re almost half way through December 😬 I’d be grateful if you’d share any top tips for supporting your team to wind down ahead of the Christmas break - it’s pretty much the only time of year the email onslaught stops and I’d really like to hear thoughts on how we can make the most of this breather

Thinking about how to slow the pace as we head towards Christmas and wondering if I can only reply to rather than generate email traffic for the next 2 weeks….

Our 'most read' @researchdigest.bsky.social article of the past month: The older we get, the later we think ‘old age’ starts. www.bps.org.uk/research-dig...

Funny old day, love love my job and work with just the best people but staying away from home tends to feel hard, maybe it’s the cold dark evenings..

A busy Monday including telling my story in a Schwartz round “failing as a leader - when being nice wasn’t kind”. Nerve wracking but a wonderfully supportive experience that generated some honest and thoughtful conversation ☺️

Please share widely, it’s going to be a good one! www.bps.org.uk/event/divisi...

📢 We have 5 new positions in psychology; the first is for our next leader (Professor/Chair)! We’re seeking a visionary, collaborative leader dedicated to excellence in research, mentoring, & teaching, with a strong commitment to justice, equity, diversity, & inclusion. jobs.uri.edu/postings/14222

Academic folks - there is lots of talk of ‘doing more with less’ in higher education in the UK. Does this have to be less people doing more or are there other institutional level ways to do this?

I’ve been so quiet in the other place for so long, I’ve forgotten how to use these spaces!

Just left the darkside and heard this is a nicer place! Hello everyone 😌
