Associate Professor Lisa Buckley's research expertise overlies behaviour change program development, implementation and evaluation including the translation of theory to evidence-informed practice. Her behaviour change research focuses on reducing adolescent and young adult substance use and improving road safety. Her work takes a focus on promotive factors, particularly through supportive relationships with friends, parents and more broadly in schools and the wider community.
