Research Assistant Professor

Dr Janet Lok Chun Lee obtained her BSc in Sports Science and Leisure Management, MPhil in Public Health, and PhD in Social Work and Social Administration, all at The University of Hong Kong.

Dr Lee is a scholar in physical activity behaviour. In the last ten years, she has been working with researchers and practitioners with backgrounds in health and social sciences who share the same research interest in physical activity behaviour. Dr Lee also has eight years of teaching experience in higher education.

Her primary research interest centres on environment and physical activity behaviour. Specifically, she is interested in investigating how outdoor exercise facilities built in parks can help older adults manage their active lifestyle, how older adults make use of videoconferencing technology to perform physical activity in a virtual environment at home, and how the Eastern mind-body exercise influences the environment within the body and the physiological, psychological, and spiritual state of the practitioner.

Her key methodological expertise is in participatory research, mixed-method research, qualitative research, and systematic reviews.
