Nicholas Troop is a health psychologist and a principal lecturer in health psychology at University of Hertfordshire.[1] His range of works include the role of life events, coping and crisis support in the aetiology of eating disorders, stress- and trauma-responses, and mobility into the social rank and attachment.[citation needed] Prior to joining the Department of Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire, Troop was a lecturer at London Metropolitan University[2] and University of Essex.[citation needed]
Education
He received his BSc Psychology from University of Dundee in 1992.[3] Troop did his PhD on "Coping and Crisis Support in Eating Disorders" in the Eating Disorders Unit at the Institute of Psychiatry at King's College London with Professor Janet Treasure as his supervisor.[citation needed]
Academic life
More recently, Troop has been investigating self-compassion, self-reassurance, involving the use of expressive writing.[citation needed] He explored the use of expressive writing to reduce stress in parents of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders.[1] In 2013, he assessed the use of an expressive writing task to increase self-reassurance and reduce self-criticism using a randomised controlled design.[4] Troop is the author of around 80 peer-reviewed journal articles.[5]
Music
His works in psychological well-being have also led him to begin exploring the role of music and song-writing on well-being. He released three albums under the name CatDesigners which contains Chemical Jazz and Strange Little Creature. These two are original materials while Tomorrow Never Knows is a cover of the Beatles’ Revolver album. A fourth album of original material, Zuta Minute (Yellow Minute), has been recorded but not yet released.[6] In 2009, he illustrated how some word types in David Bowie albums correlate with how long they spend in the charts. Troop has written a song that amplifies these results, maximising the use of these words to create the "ideal" Bowie lyric.[7]
