Personalia
Steve Hollon, born in the USA. Ph.D. from Florida State University. Professor of Psychology at VanderBilt University, USA.
Theme Group Fellow (1 Feb – 30 June 2017)
My optimism wears heavy boots: So much research, so few implications, towards ‘patient-proof’ empirical models and more effective interventions in mental health.
Research Question
How come effects of treatment for common mental health disorders do not improve and how can we change this? And what is the neural basis of perceived control?
