Beverly Walker

BA (Hons), PhD

Position:

  • Associate Professor

Research Interests:

  • My research is based on the assumption that it is the sense we make of ourselves and our environment that is crucial to how we live our lives. The relationship we have with other people, how we depend on others, is the area that I have explored most extensively. The approach I use is termed Personal Construct Psychology. Recent work has concerned the relationships between personal identity and stereotypes.
