Manuscript submitted for publication

Background

Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) is a major public health issue linked to over 200 medical conditions and driven by complex cognitive, affective, behavioral, and socioeconomic factors. We used a novel “Nudgeathon” approach, based on MINDSPACE...

Self-reported impulsivity, aggression and childhood trauma in the general population: a United-Kingdom-based online survey (2025)
Journal Article
Aubrey, O., Jones, K. A., & Paddock, E. (2025). Self-reported impulsivity, aggression and childhood trauma in the general population: a United-Kingdom-based online survey. Journal of Criminal Psychology, 15(3), 350-368. https://doi.org/10.1108/JCP-08-2024-0065

Purpose
The societal, economic and personal costs of aggression are indisputable. Impulsivity and childhood trauma (CT) play a role in aggression but less is known about the potential mechanisms underlying these associations. This study aimed to inv...

Exploring how young people in the UK understand coercive control: a qualitative study (2024)
Journal Article
Sharma, M. E., Paddock, E., & Jones, K. A. (2025). Exploring how young people in the UK understand coercive control: a qualitative study. Journal of Criminal Psychology, 15(1), 86-104. https://doi.org/10.1108/JCP-08-2024-0075

Purpose
Since the criminalisation of coercive control (CC), there have been a growing number of cases in the UK; however, there continues to be minimal research, understanding and education about this type of abuse. Hence, it is unsurprising that yo... Read More about Exploring how young people in the UK understand coercive control: a qualitative study.

Categorising interventions to enhance vaccine uptake or reduce vaccine hesitancy in the United Kingdom: A systematic review and meta-analysis (2024)
Journal Article
Kafadar, A. H., Sabatini, S., Jones, K. A., & Dening, T. (2024). Categorising interventions to enhance vaccine uptake or reduce vaccine hesitancy in the United Kingdom: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Vaccine, 42(25), Article 126092. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.06.059

Background: Vaccination is one of the most important public health interventions to combat infectious disease. However, vaccine hesitancy prevents us reaching the global target of vaccine uptake (e.g., 75 % of influenza vaccination in at-risk groups)...

JMIR Formative Research, 7, Article e47109. https://doi.org/10.2196/47109

Background:

Mortality from alcohol-related liver disease has risen significantly for three decades. Transient elastography (TE) is a non-invasive test providing a numerical marker of liver disease. Preliminary evidence suggests that receiving TE...
