Emotion and behavior

Emotion and Behavior studies the fundamental psychological mechanisms underlying both mental and physical illness. Emotion regulation is a common denominator for most of our research. Our work covers a wide variety of issues, such as tinnitus, IBS, chronic pain, eating disorders and anger-related problems. We use knowledge on basic mechanisms generated in laboratory or naturalistic settings to further develop process-based psychological treatments, especially focusing on the advancement of behavioral and cognitive behavioral therapies (CBT). We are also interested in the development and application of new methodological and statistical methods to explore individual change over time, change processes and prediction of treatment outcomes, and subgrouping of individuals.
