ID 2518: Automated assessment of transcultural skills in therapeutic responses using LLMs
Bachelor’s / Master’s Thesis / Research Internship / Project Background: Transcultural competence is a crucial factor for the success of psychotherapy. It describes the ability of therapists to work effectively with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds. Currently, this competence is often measured through self-reports, which are susceptible to biases such as social desirability. More objective […]Bachelor’s / Master’s Thesis / Research Internship / Project Background: Transcultural competence is a crucial factor for the success of psychotherapy.

ID 2454: Sensor-based Measurement of Fear Avoidance in Chronic Primary Lower Back Pain during Standardized Movement Tasks
Bachelor’s / Master’s Thesis / Research Internship / Project Fear avoidance (FA) beliefs (i.e. movements may lead to pain/injury) motivate patients with chronic primary low back pain (CPLBP) to avoid physical activity and may thereby contribute to the maintenance of pain and disability. Patients’ confrontation with unavoidable movements should act as a stressor and lead […]
