Liddell's research prioritizes amplifying children's voices regarding educational experiences through visual methods and narrative techniques. Core interests include occupational justice, resilience frameworks, problem-based learning pedagogy, and clinical outcome measurement—evidenced by the development of a sensory processing difficulties adapted scale for the Therapy Outcome Measure (TOM). Recent scholarship examines apprenticeship models in health professions education and rural leisure participation constraints using Mass Observation data.
