Are research findings reported too negatively? Dr Paul Kelly (Pt2)

Physical Activity Researcher

Dr Paul Kelly (Pt2) - PA | Positive vs. Negative | Research vs.Teaching | Global vs. Local

Dr Paul Kelly is a Lecturer in Physical Activity for Health at the University of Edinburgh. He is based at the Physical Activity for Health Research Centre (PAHRC). Paul previously worked at the University of Oxford, where he completed a PhD in the validity and reliability of self-reported travel behaviour.

His current research focuses on evaluating initiatives aimed at increasing physical activity, and the health benefits (physical and mental) of these initiatives. He is particularly interested in walking and cycling, and is currently involved in evaluating the new 20mph schemes in Edinburgh and Belfast to see how speeds, collisions and walking and cycling may be impacted. He is also involved in multiple systematic and scoping reviews using data from large cohort studies and RCTs. He has a related research interest in improving the way we assess physical activity behaviour and energy expenditure through more valid and reliable measures.
