Mueller aus Offenbach am Main Marburg, 2011 II When you suffer an attack of nerves you're being attacked by the nervous system. What chance has a man got against a system? ~Russell Hoban III Acknowledgements I would like to express my gratitude to a number of people who have provided invaluable support throughout the course of my research and without whom I would not have been able to compose this thesis. First of all, my „Doktorvater“ Jan Wacker, for being a terrific mentor in all respects. The degrees of freedom you provided on the one hand and the support you gave whenever I asked for it on the other lead to a really pleasant and productive work atmosphere. Gerhard Stemmler, my „Doktorgrossvater“, for being a highly inspirational work group leader and for providing a lot of substantial support for the herein presented studies (including the laboratory and the scientific expertise on psychophysiological measurements). I would like to express particular thanks to Prof. Dr. Nater (Biological Cinical Psycho- logy, Marburg University) who agreed to evaluate this thesis together with Jan Wacker. I am thankful that you take this time although you certainly have a plethora of far ranging other duties and commitments. In this context I further like to thank Prof. Dr. Gollwitzer (Statistical Methods, Marburg University) and Prof. Dr. Schubö (Cognitive Psychophysiology, Marburg University) for taking their time to be part of my dissertation committee.

I have attended the ADAA conference for more than 11 years, and I’m thrilled to be this year’s chair. I wholeheartedly invite you and your colleagues to attend. Why? Here are my top three reasons: • Learn and earn CE/CME. Our symposia, roundtables, and workshops offer up-to-date training on treatment options and presentation and translation of current research. • Networking. The conference is collegial and friendly, and it provides an invaluable opportunity to meet and share your research and clinical experience with colleagues from around the world. • It’s one of the best meetings of the year. You won’t find a more multidisciplinary audience, made up of clinicians and researchers, students, postdoctoral fellows, clinical trainees, and residents. Attendees come together to advance research and treatment outcomes for anxiety and related disorders. Clinicians and researchers with backgrounds in psychiatry, psychology, social work, counseling, nursing, and other disciplines will be there. Individuals with anxiety and related disorders and their families are welcome. The conference committee and I sincerely hope you’ll be able to join us for what promises to be a truly outstanding meeting. One special bonus in 2012 is the National Cherry Blossom Festival, taking place in Washington, D.C., at the time of our conference.

  • Know Thyself: Well-Being and Subjective Experience
    Cerebrum January 2018 Know Thyself: Well-Being and Subjective Experience By Joseph LeDoux, Ph.D., Richard Brown, Ph.D., Daniel Pine, M.D., and Stefan Hofmann, Ph.D. Source/Shutterstock Editor’s Note: The study of subjective experience represents a significant challenge to cognitive scientists, but one that is beginning to be increasingly addressed. Subjectivity renders experience less amenable to traditional objective scientific measurements than other subject matter. Our authors believe that when seeking to understand the mind, subjectivity must ultimately be investigated and understood. 1 Cerebrum January 2018 Ancient Greek philosophers were fond of the aphorism, “know thyself,” inscribed above the entrance of one of the Temples of Apollo at Delphi. One expression of this tradition, variably attributed to Socrates and Plato, is that “the unexamined life is not worth living.” Another, attributed to Aristotle, is “to know thyself is the beginning of wisdom.” And, according to Socrates, the path to such self-knowledge is through inner reflection, or what we now call introspection. Thousands of years later, professions arose to help people know themselves better. Sigmund Freud, for example, introduced his method of psychoanalysis in the early 20th Century as a means of helping people cope with hysteria and other neuroses by bringing unconscious conflicts into conscious awareness, allowing troubling memories that had been repressed to be worked through.1 Although he was neither a psychiatrist nor a psychologist, Freud’s ideas greatly influenced the way people with mental health problems were treated for decades. His emphasis on making the unconscious conscious was retained by some who followed,2,3 while others emphasized the conscious self in the here and now.4 Regardless, subjective experience played a key role in treatment.

August, 2019 Christina Totzeck Faculty of Psychology Ruhr-Universität Bochum Printed with permission of the Faculty of Psychology, Ruhr-Universität Bochum First reviewer: Prof. Dr. Jürgen Margraf, Ruhr-Universität Bochum Second reviewer: Prof. Dr. Stefan G. Hofmann, Boston University Date of the thesis defense: October 17th, 2019 To the most wonderful Mom Hallelujah You were an angel in the shape of my mum You got to see the person I have become Spread your wings and I know That when God took you back he said, "Hallelujah You're home" - Ed Sheeran - Preface Abstract Emotion research, especially in the context of clinical psychology, is essential in order to promote the understanding of the complex interplay of emotions and mental health. The present thesis sets out to gain more insight into this association by addressing five specific aspects: Emotion induction, habitual emotion regulation in particular clinical populations as well as its changes through cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and furthermore the effects of positive interventions on mental health including the role of positive mental health. To address these objectives, five research studies have been conducted. The results of Study 1 showed that the three targeted emotions happiness, sadness, and fear as well as a neutral state could be selectively induced in a German sample (N = 120). The findings of Study 2 revealed an association of affective styles with psychopathology in a large clinical outpatient sample (N = 917).
