Jaycee Kennett

I am a research associate in the Oxford  Precision Psychiatry Laboratory (OxPPL), focusing on evidence synthesis and living systematic reviews. My current focus is the mechanisms underlying attentional biases in anxiety and depression.

I am also interested in nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) and how it is conceptualised at both individual and societal levels, as well as its intersection with our systems of healthcare. My PhD utilises mixed methods to examine these areas.

Before starting in the department I lectured the BSc Psychology course at Aberystwyth University, focusing on conceptual and historical issues in psychology and research methods. I also have a number of years professional experience working with children and adolescents with mental health issues, rough sleepers with dual diagnosis needs, and prison leavers.
