Research Fellow
Healthy Communities

George was awarded PhD in Psychology from RMIT University, Australia, in 2021. His PhD thesis utilised quantitative, qualitative, and cross-cultural (Australia and Taiwan) research to examine factors among school-aged children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in their participation in physical activity and exercise programs.
At the same time, he also conducted a mixed methods research project to explore the effect of a community-based physical activity program for children with ADHD. His main research interest is employing research methods to examine the association between health-related behaviours and children with disability. In particular, how to enhance their participation in physical activity and exercise programs? He has an M.Sc. in Rehabilitation Sciences from Chang Gung University, Taiwan, which used an evidence-based research method to examine the effects of therapeutic exercise on children with ADHD for his Master's thesis.
