Professor Peter J. Schulz's research lab focuses on psychosomatic and behavioral health, with a strong emphasis on stress reactivity, health literacy, and patient-doctor dynamics. The lab investigates chronic stress, cortisol reactivity, and their links to long-term health outcomes, while also exploring how patient empowerment and visual health communication can improve medication adherence and health comprehension. A central theme is the distinction between subjective (perception-based) and objective (performance-based) health literacy, with a focus on preventing health misinformation.

The beneficial effect of patients' high internal and concurrent physician-attributed control beliefs suggests that a so-called "joint empowerment" approach can be suitable in order to foster medication adherence, enabling us to address the question of control as a versatile component in the doctor-patient relationship.
The present study investigated the association between chronic stress and cortisol changes during the first hour after awakening in the morning. According to results of a pilot study, it was hypothesized that chronically stressed subjects would show a more enhanced and prolonged increase of cortisol level after awakening compared to non-stressed subjects. In 100 subjects, chronic stress was assessed twice with a 1-week interval between measures and cortisol was repeatedly measured during the fir
Zusammenfassung. Angeregt durch Befunde der Streßforschung, wonach chronischer Streß und nicht akute Belastungen mit klinisch relevanten Beeinträchtigungen der Gesundheit in Zusammenhang steht, wurde das Trierer Inventar zur Erfassung von chronischem Streß (TICS) entwickelt. Der Fragebogen erfaßt sechs Aspekte von chronischem Streß: Arbeitsüberlastung, Arbeitsunzufriedenheit, soziale Belastung, Fehlen sozialer Anerkennung, Sorgen/Besorgnis und belastende Erinnerungen. Die Chronizität der Belastu
We conclude that visual-based interventions, particularly the ones using videos, are effective for improving HL and the comprehension of health-related material.
Zusammenfassung. Das Konstrukt Stressreaktivität bezieht sich auf die Disposition einer Person, Belastungen mit schnellen, intensiven und lang andauernden Stressreaktionen zu beantworten. Als Determinanten der Stressreaktivität werden ungünstige Ausprägungen von vier Personmerkmalen angenommen: hohe Besorgnisneigung, negatives Selbstkonzept eigener Fähigkeiten, hohe Erregbarkeit des ZNS und hohe Negative Affektivität. Die hier vorzustellende Stress-Reaktivitäts-Skala (SRS) erhebt neben der gener
Self-reported, perception-based health literacy should be treated as a separate concept from objective, performance-based health literacy. Only objective health literacy appears to have the potential to prevent people from becoming victims of health disinformation.
