Nieuws
Véronique de Gucht doet onderzoek in de klinische gezondheidspsychologie, specifiek naar chronische klachten en zintuigelijke prikkelgevoeligheid.
Kort CV
De Gucht studeerde (summa cum laude) af in de klinische psychologie aan de Universiteit Gent in 1989. Na het certificaat cognitieve gedragstherapie, behaalde zij in 1999 het diploma voortgezette cognitieve gedragstherapie aan de Universiteit Leuven. Zij promoveerde in 2001 aan de Universiteit Leiden op een proefschrift over somatisch onverklaarde lichamelijke klachten.
Onderzoek naar chronische klachten en prikkelgevoeligheid
Het onderzoek van Véronique De Gucht is te situeren in het domein van de (klinische) gezondheidspsychologie, met een bijzondere belangstelling voor:
(1) Medisch onverklaarde lichamelijke klachten en syndromen, m.i.v. vragenlijstonderzoek gericht op de determinanten van deze klachten en interventieonderzoek, met name op het gebied van chronische pijn en chronische vermoeidheid;
(2) De psychosociale determinanten en psychologische gevolgen van chronische ziekten, waaronder reumatische aandoeningen;
(3) Het concept zintuiglijke prikkelgevoeligheid, in het bijzonder de manier waarop dit concept wordt gemeten en het verband tussen verhoogde prikkelgevoeligheid en psychische en lichamelijke klachten.
Na aanstellingen aan de universiteiten van Brussel en Leuven werd zij in 2002 aangesteld aan de Universiteit Leiden, waar zij op dit moment hoofddocent Gezondheids- en Medische Psychologie is.
