Raymon is a senior lecturer in psychology at the School of Social Sciences and Professions.
Raymon is a Senior Lecturer in Psychology, teaching on various levels across the course. He has a BSc in Sport Management from Loughborough University. Following this he went on to convert to Psychology and completed a MSc Psychology conversion course at Nottingham Trent University. This resulted in his return to Loughborough University to specialise in Sport Psychology, completing a MSc in Sport Psychology. He then went on to undertake a PhD at Nottingham Trent University investigating the underpinning mechanisms to explain the effects of prior self-control exertion on subsequent physical task performance (recently submitted). During his PhD he was employed as an Hourly Paid Lecturer teaching on the BSc Sport and Exercise Science & Sport Science and Management.

Broadly, Raymon is interested in the effects of self-control on subsequent task performance.
Current research areas of interest:
The effects of prior self-control exertion on subsequent exercise performance. The psychological and physiological mechanisms that may explain the effects of self-control exertion on subsequent exercise performance. Psychological intervention techniques that may improve self-control during exercise performance.
