THE CONFERENCE VENUE
Your Host for STAR 2010 is……
st
STAR 2010: 31 World Conference on Stress and Anxiety Research is hosted
by the Centre for Research on Occupational and Life Stress (CROLS).
Founded in 2005, CROLS is an integrated, interdisciplinary research
consortium at NUI Galway, which comprises collaborators from the College of
Arts, Social Sciences & Celtic Studies, the College of Business, Public Policy &
Law, the College of Medicine, Nursing & Health Sciences, and the College of
Science. Its activities focus on the phenomenon of psychological stress as it
impinges on occupational and life contexts. The current director of CROLS is Dr Brian M. Hughes.
STAR 2010 Conference Location is……
The location for STAR 2010 is the National University of Ireland, Galway.
Founded on 30th October 1849, the Quadrangle first opened its doors to 63
students and the University, then known as Queen's College, was born. The
'Quad' still stands proudly at the heart of the University today as a testament
to its past. It is now used primarily for administrative purposes.
In the first academic year, 1849 -1850, the University began with three faculties, Arts, Medicine and Law but
there were also schools of Agriculture and Engineering. Female students later joined the student body and in
1906 Alice Perry graduated from the college, believed to be the first female engineering graduate in the world
to receive a first class honours degree in civil engineering
The University has had three different names:
• in 1849 it was called Queen's College Galway
• In 1908 it was changed to University College Galway
• in 1997 it was changed again to National University of Ireland, Galway
Today, with over 16,000 students and more than 2,200 staff, NUI Galway has a distinguished reputation for
teaching and research excellence in the fields of arts, social science, and celtic studies; business, public policy
and law; engineering and informatics; medicine, nursing and health sciences; and science.
Oral presentations for STAR 2010 will be held across four venues: the O’Flaherty Theatre, the Cairnes
Theatre, the D’Arcy Thompson Theatre, and the Larmor Theatre. All four lecture theatres are located on the
Arts/Science Course of NUI Galway. In addition, the Welcome Reception will be held at Moffett’s restaurant.
The O’Flaherty Theatre was named after the historian and polymath Ruairí Uí Fhlathartaigh (also, Uí
Flaithbheartaigh) of the Galway O’Flaherty family. Born in 1629, Uí Fhlathartaigh’s greatest publication in
English, "Chronological Description of West or h-Iar Connaught" was published after his death. This book
includes an account of the first experimental study of animal behaviour recorded in Ireland.
John Elliot Cairnes was a professor of Economy and Jurisprudence at Queens College Galway from 1859 to
1870. He is the most renowned of Irish economists and was a close friend of the pre-eminent English
economist John Stuart Mill.
Professor of Greek at Galway from 1864 to 1902, D’Arcy Wentworth Thompson has been described as “one of
the first English men in modern Ireland who learned to know the Irish people and sympathised with their inner
life”. At one point, that sympathy almost cost Thompson his job. He wrote to the Scotsman and London Daily
News in 1867 describing the death penalties bestowed on convicted Fenians as a “disgrace to our humanity,
our civilization, our Christianity”. Only following an apology was Thompson’s tenure secured.
Sir Joseph Larmor, was Professor of Natural Philosophy at Queens College Galway from 1880 to 1885.
Larmor was one of several leading scientists who began their careers at Queens College Galway. While in
Galway he published his first paper on electromagnetism and developed a method of deduction that was
crucial to his later work on electron theory.
From 1863 to 1897, Sir Thomas William Moffett served Queen’s College Galway as its Professor of History,
English Literature, and Mental Science, the latter designation representing what was later to emerge in
university as the field of “psychology”. As such, he was the first person to hold an academic position in the
behavioural sciences at Galway. He also served as the University’s third President (1877-1897).

Dr James J. Brown
President, National University of Ireland, Galway
A chairde,
On behalf of NUI Galway I am pleased to welcome all
st
delegates and visitors to our campus for the STAR 2010 - 31
World Conference on Stress and Anxiety Research which runs
th
th
from 4 to 6 August here at NUI Galway.
The STAR conference is one of the most prestigious annual
conferences concerning scientific research on the topics of
mental stress and anxiety. This year will see the first hosting of
a STAR conference in Ireland. I am delighted that Galway will

This conference has a multidisciplinary focus, addressing issues relating to stress, anxiety, depression and
mental health - all issues which impact on the lives of millions of people every day. As delegates and
speakers, you will engage with many of the leading social and behavioural researchers and health scientists
from across the world on these topics, sharing the latest thinking on these matters.
Finally, I would like to commend Conference Chair, Dr Brian Hughes (Director, Centre for Research on

STAR 2010: 31st World Conference on Stress and Anxiety Research
WELCOME NOTE FROM PRESIDENT OF STAR
Kate Moore
President, Stress and Anxiety Research Society
Dear Participants,
On behalf of the Board of the Stress and Anxiety Research Society (STAR), I welcome
you to the 31st International Conference of STAR, in Galway, Ireland, which I
understand is not only renowned for its National University, founded in 1845 as Queen’s
College, but also for being the cultural heart of Ireland. It would be remiss of me not to
say that the cultural aspects include an Aussie Rules Footy (football) Club! This
conference
represents
another
exciting
location
for
STAR
conferences
and
demonstrates how international we have become over our relatively short history.
The current program includes papers from the multidisciplinary and international body of researchers who
share an interest in stress and anxiety research, coping, wellbeing, and measurement. As such it sits well
with aim of STAR conferences to provide a unique opportunity to learn, not just about current research, but
also how psychology is studied and practiced throughout the world and, in particular, the region we are
visiting. Today, many of us are seeing a new side of our world for the first time: the world from ‘County
Galway’.
Our program includes the annual Distinguished Spielberger Address, given this year by Professor Michael
Eysenck; an address by our STAR Early Career Award winner Jian Li; Keynote addresses from significant
researchers and scholars in their respective fields: Professors Charles Spielberger, Daniel Russell, Jack
James, Douglas Carroll; as well as several workshops and an opportunity to meet with the editors of our
journal, Anxiety, Stress, and Coping. On your behalf, I would like to extend our gratitude to them for their
important contributions. We also have invited fora and symposia in addition to many fine oral and poster
presentations and I would like to thank all participants for sharing their work.
I would like to extend my gratitude and that of the entire STAR Board to the conference organising
committee, led so admirably by Dr Brian Hughes – well done and thanks to you and your team. Also, I am
warmed and encouraged by your overwhelming support as participants of this conference and of STAR –
please continue and let us all meet again in Münster, Germany, next year.
In conclusion, let me wish you well for your participation in this exciting conference, and as I have said
already, I hope that this will be the first of many more STAR conferences on your scientific and social
agenda.

STAR 2010: 31st World Conference on Stress and Anxiety Research
WELCOME NOTE FROM THE IRISH SOCIAL SCIENCES PLATFORM
James Cunningham
Chair, ISSP at NUI Galway
Dear Delegates,
st
It is a great pleasure to welcome you to NUI Galway for the 31 World Conference on
Stress and Anxiety Research. The hosting of this conference by the Centre for
Research on Occupational and Life Stress (CROLS) reflects the eminence and
importance of this research centre and its scholarship activities. CROLS is a core and
active participant of the Irish Social Sciences Platform (ISSP) at NUI Galway, which is
funded through the Irish Government’s Programme for Research in Third Level
Institutions, Cycle 4.
The ISSP is an all-island platform of integrated social science research and graduate training focusing on the
social, cultural and economic transformations shaping Ireland in the 21st century. The Platform brings
together academics from 19 disciplines in 8 institutions across the island into a common programme of
research centered on knowledge, innovation, society and space. A key objective for ISSP researchers is to
take an active role in key social, economic and cultural policy debates and to work closely with local
communities, voluntary and semi-state agencies, and local and national government in tackling critical issues
and building a prosperous future for the whole island. Supporting this international conference—which brings
behavioural, social and health scientists from across the world to exchange ideas; to share applied and
experimental research experiences through keynotes addresses, workshops, presentations, and exhibitions;
and to enjoy social activities—is ideally aligned to the overall ambitions of the ISSP.
On behalf of the ISSP consortium at NUI Galway and nationally I wish to acknowledge the dedication and
contribution of Dr Brian Hughes, Conference Chair, and his organising committee in bringing such an
prestigious international conference to NUI Galway.
I hope you enjoy your short visit to NUI Galway and to Galway city.

STAR 2010: 31st World Conference on Stress and Anxiety Research
WELCOME NOTE FROM CONFERENCE CHAIR
Brian Hughes
Conference Chair, STAR 2010
Dear friends,
It is my great pleasure to welcome you to Galway for STAR 2010. All of us at the
Centre for Research on Occupational and Life Stress here at the National
University of Ireland, Galway, are very proud to be hosting the first STAR
conference to take place in Ireland. Across its history as a medieval seaport, a
departure point for transatlantic sailors, a thriving university town, and latterly as
a centre for high-end technologies, the arts, sports, and tourism, Galway has
always had an internationalist mindset and a reputation as a meeting place for
people from all over the world. We are delighted to be continuing this tradition in our own modest way.
We have been hugely impressed by the diversity and high standard of submissions we received for this
year’s STAR conference and we hope that the scientific program will be both stimulating and informative.
We are all grateful for the contributions of our keynote speakers, workshop facilitators, symposium
organisers, session chairs, and all our oral and poster presenters. Of course, in seeking to promote a
healthy approach to stress relief, we also hope that our social program will live up to your expectations and
that you will gather fond memories of our university and our city.
The organisation of a conference like STAR is very much a team effort. I want to thank all the members of
the organising committee, who have carried a huge and complicated workload. I also wish to acknowledge
the members of the scientific committee, who had the arduous task of reviewing the very many submissions
we received. I particularly wish to pay tribute to the chair of the scientific committee, Dr Siobhán Howard,
who has made an enormous contribution to the overall organisation of the conference. I also wish to thank
the University Conference Office, and especially Kym O’Reilly, for playing a key role. We are also very
grateful to our sponsors and exhibitors.
Historically, Galway has been a bilingual city, and our university has a special legal responsibility for the
study of the Irish language. When spending time here, you will no doubt encounter many examples of Irish.
One particular saying might be worth remembering: “An té a bhíonn siúltach, bíonn scéaltach”. Roughly,
this translates in English as, “The person who is well travelled, will be laden with stories”. As STAR
conferences are truly global, our delegates are likely to be very well travelled indeed.
Thank you for visiting us here in Galway. I hope you return home with many fine stories to tell.
Dr Brian Hughes
Chair, STAR 2010
