Prof. Eni Becker investigates the development and treatment of anxiety disorders as well as affective disorders. She mainly focuses on cognitive processes (memory, attention, interpretation), considering these appear to play an important role in the development of anxiety disorders. Furthermore, she is very much interested in approach and avoidance tendencies, studying them in different disorders and contexts
One of her recent research interest is the change of cognitive biases, the training of automatic tendencies. She is doing research on Approach -Avoidance trainings (for Anxiety but also depression and substance abuse) as well as attention trainings.
