Bad vibrations




Remember this?

A whole smorgasbord of awful sounds awaits you at Bad Vibes.The classic fingernails on a board? Bone crunching? Roll up and have a play.

Bad Vibes results from a Salford University psychology experiment into what makes a sound unpleasant. The research is done but you can still inflict pain on your nearest and dearest.

I had to quit after sound number 5. The nerves were getting a little frayed.....

What the?

Yes, what is Health Psychology?

Granted, compared with more established psychological disciplines, Health Psychology might be a relative newcomer but the discipline has a pretty solid foundation in its origins in Clinical Psychology.

Focusing on the role of psychological factors in both health and illness, the practice of Health Psychology addresses both clinical and health promotion issues.
