We're saddened by the death of UCD Prof. Emerita Eunice McCarthy. A key figure in psychology, in @PsychSocIreland, & in work&organisational psychology. She was an inspirational academic, supervisor and mentor and will be greatly missed. We send sympathies to her family & friends.
It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Professor Eunice McCarthy. A former PSI President and a pioneering member of the Society, Eunice will be deeply missed. Our thoughts are with her family, friends, and colleagues, particularly her fellow members of the PSI Division of Work and Organisational Psychology, in which she played an integral role.
