About our authors

Jill M. Hooley is the John Lindsley Professor of Psychology in the Department of Psychology at Harvard University. She is also the head of the experimental psychopathology and clinical psychology program at Harvard and, in addition, serves as Director of Undergraduate Studies for the Psychology Department. Dr. Hooley was born in England and received a BSc in psychology from the University of Liverpool. This was followed by research work at Cambridge University. She then attended Magdalen College, Oxford, where she completed her D. Phil. After a move to the United States and additional training in clinical psychology at SUNY Stony Brook, Dr. Hooley took a position at Harvard, where she has been a faculty member for longer than she can remember.

Dr. Hooley has a long-standing interest in psychosocial predictors of psychiatric relapse in patients with severe psychopathology such as schizophrenia and depression. Other research interests center around nonsuicidal self-injury (skin-cutting or burning) as well as emotion regulation, particularly in people who are vulnerable to depression or who have borderline personality disorder. Her research has been supported by grants from the National Institute of Mental Health and by the Borderline Personality Disorder Research Foundation.

In 2000, Dr. Hooley received the Aaron T. Beck Award for Excellence in Psychopathology Research. She is also a past president of the Society for Research in Psychopathology. The author of many scholarly publications, Dr. Hooley served as Associate Editor for Clinical Psychological Science from 2012 to 2016. In 2015 Dr. Hooley received the Zubin Award for Lifetime Achievement in Psychopathology Research from the Society for Research in Psychopathology.

At Harvard, Dr. Hooley has taught graduate and undergraduate classes in introductory psychology, psychopathology, schizophrenia, mood disorders, clinical psychology, psychiatric diagnosis and psychological treatment. Reflecting her commitment to the scientist-practitioner model, she also does clinical work specializing in the treatment of people with depression, anxiety disorders and personality disorders.

Matthew K. Nock was born and raised in New Jersey. Matt received his BA from Boston University (1995), followed by two masters (2000, 2001) and a PhD from Yale University (2003). He also completed a clinical internship at Bellevue Hospital and the New York University Child Study Center (2003). Matt joined the faculty of Harvard University in 2003 and has been there ever since, currently serving as the Edgar Pierce Professor of Psychology in the Department of Psychology.

While an undergraduate, Matt became very interested in the question of why people do things to intentionally harm themselves and he has been conducting research aimed at answering this question ever since. His research is multidisciplinary in nature and uses a range of methodological approaches (e.g., epidemiologic surveys, laboratory-based experiments and clinic-based studies) to better understand how these behaviors develop, how to predict them and how to prevent their occurrence. His work is funded by research grants from the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Defense and several private foundations. Matt's research has been published in over 250 scientific papers and book chapters and has been recognized through the receipt of awards from the American Psychological Association, the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies and the American Association of Suicidology. In 2011 he received a MacArthur Fellowship (aka, "Genius Grant") in recognition of his research on suicide and self-harm.

At Harvard, Matt teaches courses on various topics including psychopathology, statistics, research methods and cultural diversity. He has received numerous teaching and mentoring awards including the Roslyn Abramson Teaching Award and the Petra Shattuck Prize.
