摘要:

A psychometric scale based upon phenomenological descriptions was constructed for approaching the emotional depth dimension of personality. Some nosological groups of endogenous psychoses tested in the frame of a controlled follow-up study were characterized by psychometric values which might be discussed both in relation to prepsychotic personality and to course of illness.

摘要:

Recent experimental and theoretical work on the nature of emotion suggests a new theory for hypnosis. The emotion system is inherently complex, involving a wide range of neurological systems including what are described here as structural effectors and chemical mediators affecting specific sites of action. The nine innate affects elucidated by Tomkins are considered as organizers of the other moieties, genetically determined prewritten subcortical programs that convert quantitative stimuli into qualitative experience. Emotion in the adult involves subtle and complex combinations of innate affect with associations to previous experiences of affect provided by neocortical mechanisms. The infant initially expresses affect in an all-or-none fashion, while the caregiver, usually mother, acts as an external modulator of infantile affect display. All the techniques by which the mother learns to achieve affect mutualization and interaffectivity are analogues of what later may be seen as the techniques of hypnotic induction. Hypnosis may be viewed as the intentional alteration of neocortical cognition made possible by the state of primitive interaffectivity achieved when the hypnotic operator enters the central assembly system of the adult by techniques reminiscent of maternal modulation of infantile affect display.

摘要:

Far beyond psychoanalysis and the 20th century there is a very long tradition of the idea that under normal circumstances our convictions, values, attitudes and behaviour patterns are a more or less consistent system, not to be radically changed, unless a shaking-up happens, which reduces confidence into this value system. Only then would an intensive search for new and better possibilities of adaption to reality occur. In this paper, four theses on the problem of psychoanalytic crisis induction will first be presented. Thereafter, the phase of crisis induction within psychoanalytic therapy will be described in terms of Janzarik’s concept of structural-dynamic coherence. Finally, a comparison between different forms of crisis induction such as psychoanalysis, group dynamics and trauma shall stress the ethical aspects of the matte
