Research Interests

Fran is a developmental cognitive psychologist and is interested in many elements of developmental psychology including behavioural, neuropsychological and educational. Her current research with year three undergraduate students investigates the Differential Outcome Effect (DOE) and how this may be adapted for, and used with very young children, and with older adults for medical adherence. Fran is currently collaborating with Dr Paloma Mari Beffa and colleagues in Almeria, Spain on this project.

Fran engages in a wide range of pedagogical research, including how student anxiety towards public speaking can be reduced during small group presentation sessions, the value of metacogniitve MCQ scoring (and students' perceptions), and the development of self-compassion and grit through group marathon training embedded within a curriculum. In response to the rapid pivot to online learning that took place during the Covid-19 pandemic, Fran and colleagues at Bangor, published a review of online pedagogies and provided recommendations for lecturers across the sector.

Her work supporting students transitions, including a pre-arrival platform(/bangor-welcome/be-bangor-ready), and year-long induction programme has been presented to national and international audiences including the Cross-party group Welsh parliamentary Senedd meeting on universities, the Staff and Educational Development Association (Keynote 2022); the International Federation of National Teaching Fellows (IFNTF); a recorded for presentation to HEFCW, the Advance HE Symposium; and to Sussex University. The work has been published as part of a SEDA text book (Routledge) on pre-arrival platforms.
