  • Gender differences and individual, household, and workplace characteristics

    Open AccessNicola Shelton, Josephine Head et al.ARTICLEPopulation Space and Place2018Cited by: 2References: 5

    Increasing labour market participation among older workers is embedded in government policy in the United Kingdom and many other industrialised countries with rises in the state pension age in response to increasing life expectancy. Despite this, many workers stop working before state pension age with around a 20% reduction in the proportion of adults in work between ages 50 and 60 in 2011 in England and Wales. This paper considers the risk of re…

  • Association between midlife health behaviours and transitions out of employment from midlife to early old age

    Open AccessGareth Hagger-Johnson, Gareth Hagger‐Johnson et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2017

    Unhealthy behaviours in midlife are associated with transitions out of employment into old age. Promoting healthy behaviours at midlife might support current policy initiatives aimed at extending working life. Future research should consider possible mechanisms that link behaviours to transitions out of employment, and consider sex differences in larger cohorts

  • Public Engagement, Knowledge Transfer, and Impact Validity

    Open AccessGareth Hagger‐Johnson, Peter Hegarty et al.ARTICLEJournal of Social Issues2013Cited by: 4References: 61

    Public engagement and knowledge transfer are now necessary supplements to academic research and teaching activity for university‐based psychologists in the United Kingdom. However, a “deficit model” of public understanding is often assumed by national policies. We argue that bidirectional approaches between researchers and concerned communities are necessary, and that bidirectional transfer recognizes different kinds of expertise and experience. …

  • Neuroticism and Cardiovascular Disease Mortality

    Gareth Hagger-Johnson, Gareth Hagger‐Johnson et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2012

    OBJECTIVE: The association between personality traits and mortality might differ as a function of socioeconomic status (SES). Our aim was to evaluate the all-cause, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and cancer mortality risk associated with neuroticism or extraversion and their interactions with SES in a representative sample of the UK adult population. METHODS: A total of 5450 participants (2505 men) from the Health and Lifestyle Survey completed th…

  • Neuroticism Combined With Slower and More Variable Reaction Time

    Gareth Hagger‐Johnson, G E Hagger-Johnson et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2012

    Age (B = .02, p < .001) and HALS1 baseline reaction time (B = -.10, p = .001) were significant risk factors for males (N = 1,899). In addition to these variables, in females (N = 2,361), neuroticism was significant and interacted synergistically with baseline reaction time (B = .06, p = .04). Adjustment for physiological variables explained the interaction with neuroticism, suggesting that candidate mechanisms had been identified. Discussion. A p…

  • Childhood socioeconomic status and adult health

    Gareth Hagger-Johnson, Gareth Hagger‐Johnson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2011Cited by: 2References: 28

    BACKGROUND: Health at midlife is associated with early-life socioeconomic status (SES), intelligence and education; the latter often used as a marker of SES in adulthood. SES is typically modelled as a latent construct with reflective indicators (where the construct causes the variables) but may be better operationalised as a formative trait (where the variables cause the construct). In this report, the authors explain the difference between thes…

  • Are social networking profiles reliable indicators of sensational interests

  • Direct and Indirect Pathways Connecting Cognitive Ability With Cardiovascular Disease Risk

    Gareth Hagger‐Johnson, Gareth E Hagger-Johnson et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2010

    OBJECTIVE: To model and test direct and indirect pathways connecting general cognitive ability (g) with cardiovascular disease risk factors, via socioeconomic status (SES) and multiple health behaviors. METHODS: A sample comprising participants in the Health and Lifestyle Survey, a prospective cohort study of a representative sample of U.K. adults in 1984/5 (n = 4939, 2426 males). RESULTS: Two mediating latent variables were proposed that connect…

  • Conscientiousness, perceived control over HIV and condom use in gay/bisexual men

    Gareth Hagger-Johnson, Gareth Hagger‐Johnson et al.ARTICLEPsychology and Sexuality2010References: 2

    Men who have sex with men remain a high-risk group for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in the United Kingdom. Quantitative psychological approaches to modelling sexual risk-taking have originated from two theoretical traditions: social-cognitive (e.g. perceived behavioural control over HIV) and trait/dispositional (e.g. personality traits). Conscientiousness is a potentially important trait, but as a recent addition to the five-facto…
