Marieke Effting is a postdoctoral researcher and a teacher at the Department of Clinical Psychology. Her research concerns the measurement of impulsive avoidance tendencies as a predictor of real-life phobic behavior in clinical populations. Her teaching concerns Evidenced based practice, a 3-rd years bachelor statistical course on the link between research and clinical practice. Her PhD involved research on the mechanism of return of extinguished fear and its prevention in humans.
