My student, newly-minted doctor Selen Gönül, has written a very good review of unconscious and preconscious threat processing in social anxiety. One main conclusion was that there isn’t enough research being done on this topic!
Well done, Selen!

On Monday, my new TÃœBÄ°TAK-funded project officially began. It is called “Panel Studies of Optimism Bias and Positive Mood”, and it will run for the next two years.
My new postdoc and I will be running 6-wave longitudinal studies, to test whether within-person fluctuations in future expectancies predict later mood, depression, and anxiety. I look forward to posting our results here – watch this space!
It’s been a good week for my lab group 🙂 Yesterday, my master’s student Åžeyma Nur Kara successfully defended her thesis. Well done Åžeyma!
I am delighted to announce that my student Selen Gönül successfully defended her thesis on Friday! Congratulations Dr Gönül!
