Biography

Dr Siobhán Griffin is an Assistant Professor in the Dept of Psychology.
She is a graduate of the B.Ed in Psychology and Education program in Mary Immaculate College (2015), and graduated with her PhD in Psychology from UL in 2020. Prior to her current position, she worked as a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellow in the Dept of Psychology and Neuroscience in Baylor University (Texas, USA), a postdoctoral researcher as part of an ERC grant awarded to Prof Orla Muldoon, and as a lecturer in the Department.
 
Siobhán is currently membership secretary of the Division of Health Psychology (DHP) committee of the Psychological Association of Ireland (PSI). She is also an active member of a number of professional societies including the PSI, the American Psychosomatic Society (APS), and the Society of Personality and Social Psychology (SPSP).
 
She is a member of the Centre for Social Issues in Research (CSI-R), the Study of Anxiety, Stress, and Health Laboratory (SASHLab), and GrowthLab in UL.
 
Research Interests
 
Siobhán is particularly interested in how social and psychological factors can influence psychological well-being and physical health. Much of her research has focused on how emotion regulation ability relates to cardiovascular responses to stress. She also examines how social group memberships can influence well-being and objective indices of stress during life transitions. Furthermore, working in conjunction with NGOs she is exploring what group-based factors may help facilitate adaption and recovery from trauma, and what can promote the development of post-traumatic growth. As part of her current fellowship she is learning novel methodologies in stress measurement (e.g., metabolic uncoupling) to tease apart the associations between depression, cardiovascular disease risk, and social identity.​​ Siobhán is an advocate of open-science principles and of large-scale multi-site projects to examine and test psychological phenomena.
