The ESRC, British Psychological Society (BPS), the Experimental Psychology Society (EPS) and the Association of Heads of Psychology Departments (AHPD) agreed in 2009 to work in partnership to benchmark the quality and impact of research in the UK against international standards.
The Panel’s headline finding is that, overall, the quality of UK psychology research is very high, bettered only by psychology research from the USA and in a substantial number of areas, UK psychology research is unsurpassed anywhere in the world. The Panel’s view is corroborated both by the outcome of the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise and bibliometric analysis.Read more on the ESRC webpage.

Dear Corinna
Many thanks for highlighting this report which came out last week. The growth of psychological research at Bournemouth has been symptomatic of the growth of departments all around the country and its good to know we’re part of this.
We are often approached by other members of staff about the research we do. For our latest news please look at:
