About me

About me

Dr Carolyn Wilson-Nash joined the University of Stirling in January 2018. Prior to that she studied at Durham University to complete a Marketing MA in 2009 and PhD in 2014. Her PhD thesis focused on the motivations of repetitive technology use by older consumers and led her to undertake a KTP in the adoption of digital technology by NHS patients. The KTP was based at the University of Salford in collaboration with Dynamic Health Systems. In 2016, Dr Wilson-Nash returned to Durham University Business School as a research associate, to work on a further Innovate UK funded project, which was in collaboration with IBM, P&G and Kantar. The project explored consumer behaviour related to brand and product switching in FMCGs.

She is currently working on research projects relating to consumers experiencing vulnerability in services, technology use in care homes, and social media use by older people.

Research

Dr Wilson-Nash's overarching focus is on the nuances of technology consumption, predominantly within services. She has explored technology consumption by a range of consumers including older people, younger people, care home residents, and patients with long term conditions or in palliative care. She has investigated the consumption of different technologies such as artificial intelligence, digital technology, social media, webpages, and mobile applications. She is interested in how technology influences the welfare of the user, using theoretical insights from motivating operations, technology paradoxes, service captivity and the customer journey.
