Dr. Tull is a Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Toledo. He obtained his PhD in clinical psychology from the University of Massachusetts Boston in August 2005, and he completed his internship at the Boston Consortium in Clinical Psychology with rotations at the Outpatient Clinic, Substance Abuse Residential Treatment Program, and the National Center for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder - Behavioral Sciences Division. Dr. Tull's research focuses on emotion regulation within the anxiety disorders, with a particular focus on PTSD. His research examines the ways in which: (a) emotion regulation strategies that function to avoid emotion (and internal experience in general) may serve as a vulnerability factor for the development and maintenance of PTSD; and (b) emotional approach and acceptance (such as through mindfulness) may serve as a protective factor for anxiety disorder-related pathology. This research stems from a growing body of theoretical and empirical literature that suggests a paradoxical effect of emotional avoidance/control and, conversely, the potential benefits of accepting and being mindful of one's internal experience. He has published numerous scientific articles and chapters on these and other topics and has given many scientific conference presentations on his research. His research has also been funded by the National Institutes of Health. In recognition of his research, Dr. Tull was awarded the 2009 recipient of the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies Chaim and Bela Danieli Young Professional Award and the 2010 recipient of the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies President's New Researcher Award.
