External Validation of the ‘PHYT in Dementia’, a Theoretical Model Promoting Physical Activity in People with Dementia. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 17(5), Article 1544. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph17051544

Physical activity is beneficial for people with dementia. We previously developed a theoretical model to explain behaviour change in physical activity in dementia (PHYT-in-dementia). This study aimed to externally validate the model. Validation occur...

Unconditional and conditional monetary incentives to increase response to mailed questionnaires: A randomized controlled study within a trial (SWAT). Journal of Evaluation in Clinical Practice, 26(3), 893-902. https://doi.org/10.1111/jep.13230

Rationale, aims, and objectives: High response rates to research questionnaires can help to ensure results are more representative of the population studied and provide increased statistical power, on which the study may have been predicated. Improvi... Read More about Unconditional and conditional monetary incentives to increase response to mailed questionnaires: A randomized controlled study within a trial (SWAT).

Lung cancer screening: does pulmonary nodule detection affect a range of smoking behaviours? (2018)
Journal Article
Clark, M. E., Young, B., Bedford, L. E., Robertson, J. F., das Nair, R., Vedhara, K., …Kendrick, D. (2019). Lung cancer screening: does pulmonary nodule detection affect a range of smoking behaviours?. Journal of Public Health, 41(3), 600-608. https://doi.org/10.1093/pubmed/fdy158

Background Lung cancer screening can reduce lung cancer mortality by 20%. Screen-detected abnormalities may provide teachable moments for smoking cessation. This study assesses impact of pulmonary nodule detection on smoking behaviours within the fi...

Lung cancer CT screening: psychological responses in the presence and absence of pulmonary nodules (2018)
Journal Article

Objectives: To determine the psychological response (thoughts, perceptions and affect) to a diagnosis of pulmonary nodules following a novel antibody blood test and computed tomography (CT) scans within a UK population. Materials and methods: This... Read More about Lung cancer CT screening: psychological responses in the presence and absence of pulmonary nodules.
