My research-work concentrated on the ‘Stress and medicine’ project, paying special attention to anxiety and the medical situation. Furthermore, I finalized a book describing research in The Netherlands on the long-term after-effects of being held hostage and continued my work on the premenstrual syndrome and its related variables.
