Christopher Fullerton

Dr. Christopher Fullerton is a Lecturer in Sport & Exercise Psychology at the Faculty of Health Sciences and Sport, University of Stirling. His research focuses on self-control exertion effects on exercise performance, trait self-control in health behavior, and psychophysiological mechanisms in endurance tasks.

• Primary affiliations: Sport Social Science Research Group, SPARKLE (Stirling Physical Activity Research, Knowledge & Learning Exchange), Physiology, Exercise and Nutrition Research.

Research interests include psychophysiological self-regulation, weight management in combat sports, and exercise as a disease-modifying intervention for clinical populations like those with Parkinson’s disease. His work combines mixed methods to analyze physiological responses (VO2, blood lactate) and subjective experiences (affective valence, self-efficacy) during exercise.
