MaherLecturer in Psychology, University of LimerickDr. Paul Maher is a social psychologist and lecturer in the Department of Psychology at the University of Limerick, where he is also affiliated with the Centre for Social Issues Research. His research examines the intersection of emotions, attitudes, and political psychology, with particular focus on how epistemic emotions shape political polarisation and group dynamics.Dr Maher's work explores critical contemporary issues, including political polarisation, populist attitudes, trust in science during public health crises, and the formation of social identities based on attitude alignment. His research employs innovative methodologies, including computational modeling and social network analysis, to understand how political divisions extend to new topics and how social norms influence individual attitudes.A former Irish Research Council awardee, Dr Maher has published extensively in leading journals including the European Journal of Social Psychology, British Journal of Social Psychology, and Journal of Applied Social Psychology. His work has been cited over 800 times and addresses pressing questions about democratic satisfaction, conspiracy beliefs, and the psychological mechanisms underlying social and political change. Dr. Maher's interdisciplinary approach combines social cognition, behavioral science, and identity network theory to provide insights into decision-making processes and emotional responses in politically charged contexts.This is not to be missed "

The Siege of Limerick

(North Campus Pitches )

"The Siege of Limerick 2026 !!!All are invited to The Siege of Limerick, the best tournament of the year!! Hosted on our very own campus, teams come from all over the world to play in Ireland's largest outdoor frisbee tournament that caters to both the Women's and Open division. To kick off the weekend we will have our annual fundraiser on Friday the 6th in The Locke Bar to raise money for Jigsaw, a charity that provide valuable resources for young people's mental health. Games begin on the Saturday over on North Campus and we'll see a great mix of battles between college teams and clubs from Ireland and oversees. After a long day of playing we bring the party to Dolans for a night of music, meeting fellow tournament attendees, and extravagant costumes to fit the theme - check out the instgram @thesiegeoflimerick to find out what this theme is. Then we'll drag our tired heads and bodies back to North Campus bright and early on Sunday morning to continue the fun and decide who the winners of The Siege of Limerick will be. Of course those of us still standing will gather for chill pints/debrief in Hurlers on Sunday night to reminisce on the great weekend we just had (and maybe start making plans for next year). Participation in this tournament will be organised through our main communication platform- WhatsApp so if you aren't in the group send us an email and we'll sort you out!"
