I’m Joy Cranham and I’m a Doctoral Research Student in the Department of Education. My research focuses on psycho-educational interventions designed to act as safeguarding tools against coercive and controlling relationships. My work involves many areas of social psychology that you may already be familiar with from the Psychology A level syllabus: in/out group dynamics; social influence; and the development of attachment.
