Mer om författaren

Paul Richardson is a Principal Lecturer and the Deputy Head of Psychology at Sheffield Hallam University. His background is in neuropsychology and neuroimaging, but his particular interests are in the realm of atypical behaviours i.e. outside the usual normative range. Currently this centres on those who have been involved in accidents and may be malingering on tests of cognitive performance in order to appear more impaired (“faking bad”). Prior to lecturing, he was a post-doctoral researcher investigating neural correlates of impulsivity, reward processing and empathy in those with antisocial personality syndrome. Before that, he earned his MSc and PhD researching specific memory difficulties in boys with Klinefelter’s Syndrome and developmental amnesia.Laura Machan is an Associate Lecturer at Sheffield Hallam University and currently working towards a PhD in Developmental and Social Psychology – specifically, attachment theory in relation to adults and adolescents. Her other research interests include neuropsychology, dark triad/tetrad personalities, atypical development and SEND, and education. Prior to her work in higher education she worked in secondary education for 8 years alongside students with SEND. She also has 6 years’ experience working in applied research involving children and adolescents with SEND and life-limiting conditions.
