   My research is in the broader domain of attitudes and attitude-behavior relations. I have a particular interst in habits (both behavioral and mental habits), values, the self, and self-regulation. I apply these interests in areas such as health, consumer and environmental behavior.

   Gregory R. Maio is Head of Department of Psychology at the University of Bath, UK.  He is interested in social values (e.g., equality, freedom, helpfulness), attitudes, and emotional processes. Gregory′s principal interests at the moment are projects examining psychological connections between values and behaviour (including the adoption of a healthy lifestyle) and adult mental representations of children.

   Geoffrey Haddock is Professor of Psychology at Cardiff University, UK. His primary area of research is the psychology of attitudes.  Within this area, he has a number of research interests, including: (a) the role of affective and cognitive processes in attitudes, (b) the impact on mindfulness on attitudes and attitude change, (c) how individual differences influence attitude processes, (d) the implicit and explicit measurement of attitudes and attitudinal components, and (e) how reading persuasive material in different media formats influences attitudes and attitude change.  Other research helps to understand how social values get translated into action. This research is being undertaken in collaboration with colleagues in the Values in Action (ViA) Centre, at Cardiff University.
