A very good piece of news that came just in time for Christmas:
Andrew Dyer, whom I had the honour of co-supervising at #QUBPsych, has defended his PhD! 🎉
If you want to have a first peek at his work on alcohol and #HRQL, you can have a look at this #SysReview that was published earlier this year:

Our work on quality of life and #HRQL as outcomes in substance and behavioural addictions has been published:
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/dar.13717
We identified 53 outcome instruments, assessing 41 unique domains (👇 ), 11 of which had their psychometric properties evaluated.
"the paucity of supporting evidence limits confidence in the reliability and validity of QoL measurement in these populations."
