My doctoral research investigates the psychological impact of negative illness personification in people with multiple sclerosis, focusing on its effects on disease activity, emotional distress, and concealment behaviors. Using a longitudinal design, I explore how relationship quality moderates these effects and aim to inform targeted psychosocial interventions.

The current research, which is a doctoral thesis, deals with an in-depth analysis of the traumatic effects of war situations. It specifically examines the relationship between salutogenic (health-promoting) factors and social aspects, and how these are expressed in the coping processes among Israeli combat soldiers.
