About

After graduation from Anhui College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (B.Med., 1989), China, and the University of Liège, Belgium (D.Sc., 1995), I successively joined the First University Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China (Formerly Anhui Provincial Hospital, 1996-2004, as a senior Psychiatrist, and an Associate Professor of Neuropsychiatry) in Hefei, China, the Zhejiang University School of Medicine (June 2004-Oct 2019, as Full Professor of Clinical Psychology and Psychiatry, and Chief Psychiatrist) in Hangzhou, China, and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (Nov 2019-, as Full Professor of Personality Psychology) in Trondheim, Norway, for personality bases of neuropsychiatric disorders. My research interests focus on personality traits and disorders, emotion components and disorders, dream experiences (nightmare and sexual dream) and disorders, and neurocognitive processes at cerebral and brainstem levels: which might be partly reflected by the following theses of my previous Ph.D./MD students.

The structures of antisocial personality trait and their relationships with parental bonding styles, Nov 2009 (R. Yu).

Personality and executive function bases of alexithymia and recognition of facial emotions in paranoid schizophrenia, Feb 2012 (S. Yu).

Neurophysiological mechanism of processing octave illusion in first-episode paranoid schizophrenia with auditory hallucinations, Mar 2013 (L. Zheng).

Cerebral information processing in treatment-resistant depression: effects of comorbidity and function of cognitive and emotional regulations, May 2013 (W. He).

Familial, personality and cerebral processing mechanisms behind the recognition of facial expressions of emotion, Jun 2014 (H. Chai).

Attentional deficits in medication-overuse headache: neurophysiological and behavioral evidence, Feb 2015 (J. Zhang).

Personality disorder functioning style correlates of consciousness: idiopathic nightmare, hypnotic susceptibility, and intervened panic disorder, Jun 2015 (W. Chen).

Personality and cortical mechanisms behind the Deutsch word illusion processing in schizophrenia and related personality disorders, Jun 2016 (Y. Xu).

Multi-channel physiological responses to external emotions and their transitions in bipolar I and II disorders, Feb 2019 (G. Ma).

Predicting personality disorder functioning styles by brief versions of personality trait measures: tests in healthy volunteers and personality disorder patients, May 2019 (H. Fan).

Anxiety features in bipolar I and II disorders: illness anxiety and body image concerns based on the implicit theory, May 2019 (B. Pan).

Cerebral activations of nightmare disorder patients in different conditions: from rest to task performing, from peace to emotional processing, May 2020 (C. Shen).

Potential indicators distinguishing between bipolar I and II disorders based on event-related potential and behavioral characteristics, Jul 2020 (B. Zhang).

Together with crew members, we have developed questionnaires such as the Functional and Emotional measure of Dysmenorrhea (Li L et al., Healthcare for Women International, 2012), the Nightmare Experience Questionnaire (Chen WZ et al., Journal of Psychiatry: Open Access, 2014), the Sexual Dream Experience Questionnaire (Chen WZ et al., Comprehensive Psychiatry, 2015), the Family Relationship Questionnaire (Chen LX et al., Bulletin of Menninger Clinic, 2015), and the Body Image Concerns Scale (He WX, Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment, 2017). We have also successfully selected some emotional materials loaded with one pure emotion, from the International Affective Picture System (Xu et al., Heliyon, 2017), the International Affective Digital Sounds (Wang JW et al. Current Psychiatry Research and Reviews, 2019), and from musical excerpts (Shen CC et al., Psychology Research and Behavior Management, 2017), which might be used for scientific research and clinical interventions.
