It is still widely believed among the population that non-therapeutic [[circumcision]] in boys is harmless or even necessary. The scientific literature, however, mentions many possible physical and [[Psychological issues of male circumcision| psychological consequences]].
Therefore, a research group at the Clinical Institute of Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy at the [https://www.uniklinik-duesseldorf.de/ University Hospital Düsseldorf ] (Germany) is investigating adult men for possible long-term consequences of their childhood [[circumcision]]. The research group searches for the study '''P'''sychovegetative '''RE'''agibleness after the '''C'''ircumcision in the '''K'''id time (PRECK study), other interested male subjects between the ages of 18 and 45, who were circumcised as boys until their 12th birthday. In particular, men are sought who suffer the consequences of their circumcision.
The study is conceived as a perception experiment, limited to the superficial deriving of body signals (e.g. ECG). The evaluation of the study is not expected before 2020.
