Associated Research Group Leaders

CoupleSense: HIER group leader andrea horn

This research group focusses the examination of interpersonal regulation in pair relationships. The interplay between intra- and interpersonal emotion regulation, which is observed in relation to health over the lifespan, is of particular interest. The research is informed through current perspectives on emotion regulation, close relationships, stress response and depression. Another focus is set on the examination of language use, which enables inference about health-relevant parameters in the analysis of real conversations or expressive writing tasks. Methodically, the primary emphasis lies on the assessment via the dyadic ambulatory assessment, which allows the synchronized examination of the variables of interest in everyday life and over time. Besides the subjective experience, also objective data is assessed via Sensing, for example what time the partners spend time with one another. Go to website
