Research Interests

Gerry is a Professor of Psychology and he leads the MEDication Adherence across the Lifespan (MEDAL) research group and is currently linked to several leading health psychology research groups in Europe. Over the last 10 years the main focus of this programme of research has been on describing, understanding and changing medication taking behaviour. Five key overarching questions include: (1) What is the extent of non-adherence to treatments? (2) What are the causes of non-adherence to treatment? (3) What are the consequences of non-adherence (4) How can we improve the measurement of medication taking behaviour? (5) What interventions support optimal medication taking behaviour? Gerry was an elected member of the Executive Committee of the European Health Psychology Society (EHPS) between 2010 and 2014 and is currently a member of the Editorial Board of Psychology & Health. He has been an Associate Editor of the British Journal of Health Psychology and the International Journal of Behavioral Medicine. He is currently an Associate Editor of Health Psychology Review
