Prof Nikos Ntoumanis

I am a BPS Chartered Psychologist and a Fellow of BPS, APA, and the UK Academy of Social Sciences. Over the last 25 years, I have worked as a professor in universities in the UK (Birmingham), Australia (Curtin), and Denmark (SDU). My research focuses on personal and contextual factors that promote motivation for sustained health behaviour change and result in psychological well-being.  Funding from my work has been obtained from research councils, charities, the EU, private foundations, and the industry. Findings from my work have been published in prestigious journals from various fields of psychology, behavioral and clinical medicine, education, and exercise science (e.g., Current Directions in Psychological Science, Annual Review of Psychology, Health Psychology Review, Obesity Reviews,  Annals of Behavioral Medicine, Journal of Educational Psychology, British Journal of Sports Medicine). In Denmark I co-lead the Centre on Motivation and Behaviour Change at SDU that crosses the disciplines of health, education, business, economics, and environmental science (https://www.sdu.dk/en/om_sdu/institutter_centre/driven)
