Congratulations to Professor Ann MacPhail on her latest publication with Kinsella, E. L., J. McMahon and N. M. Cummins:

Understanding Early Academic Careers Through the Lens of Psychological Precarity: A Qualitative Longitudinal Study

Published in Higher Education Quarterly, the study explores how employment precarity is experienced and internalised during early academic careers, highlighting the influence of employment conditions, institutional culture, role ambiguity and the search for professional legitimacy.

The research highlights psychological precarity as a valuable lens for understanding early academic careers and provides institutional recommendations aimed at reducing the psychological burden experienced by early-career academics, particularly within international higher education contexts.
