AbstractThe patient and the author of this case report are the same person. In September 1974 I had a cardiac arrest, and because of anoxia, the arrest resulted in some right‐sided brain damage. The brain damage led to some minor physical and perceptual problems, but the most important result was partial loss of past memory and strongly impaired present memory. This report will be concerned with the effects of poor memory on cognition, personality, and interpersonal relationships based on the observations I have made during the period in which my memory was impaired. Of course, the emotional and personality reactions are somewhat related to my past personality, but some may be expected generally when poor memory is present. The effect on cognitive functioning is more likely to be a general finding. I also will describe the course of my rehabilitation over a 2‐year period, and I will make some suggestions about rehabilitation to patients and therapi

摘要:

AbstractIn a cross‐sectional study of 17‐ to 92‐year‐olds two midlife influences in daydreaming were observed by Giambra (1979‐80): A much larger mean for daydreaming frequency at 45‐49 years of age for both men and women and a much smaller mean for sexual daydreaming beginning with 50‐ to 54‐year‐old women. This study investigated these midlife influences on daydreaming on a large sample of women. The sample consisted of 477 women from 40 to 60 years of age. A total of 42 variables were investigated; these included variables related to health status, symptom presence, menstruation difficulties, sexual activity, demographic concerns, importance of various life activities, and effects of menopause. The most salient outcome of this study was that daydreaming tended to be more prevalent among women who exhibited various psychological symptoms and who were less physically healthy, and that menopause was not a moderating variable. This outcome was discussed within the current concerns framework

摘要:

AbstractExplored the relationship among the MMPI, the Beck Depression Inventory, and the pain dimensions from the McGill Pain Questionnaire. The instruments were administered to 30 male VA patients with histories of pain for longer than 3 months. Multiple regression analyses that investigated the relationship between depression and the pain measures found no statistically significant correlations. Additionally, the MMPI subscales were not related significantly to the sensory‐discriminative pain scores, the cognitiveevaluative pain scores, the present pain intensity scores, the percent of body area in pain, or the total number of pain words endorsed. In contrast, the MMPI subscales were related significantly to the motivational‐affective pain dimension and the miscellaneous pain dimension. In the motivational affective analysis, a significant positive correlation was found for the PT subscale, but a significant negative correlation was found for the Sc subscale. In the miscellaneous pain analysis, a significant positive correlation was found for the Hs subscale. The results are interpreted in the context of cognitive behavioral conceptualizations of chronic p

摘要:

AbstractHospitalized, male chronic schizophrenics (N= 21) in their late sixties performed as well as those in their early forties when normal age effects were determined on measures of verbal fluency, picture anomaly recognition, tapping speed, and maze learning. The findings contraindicated the Kraepelinian view of schizophrenia as a deteriorative disorder and were more in accord with recent longitudinal evidence of clinical stabilization and amelioration of disruptive symptoms in chronic schizophrenia.

摘要:

AbstractStudied the relationships between depth of depression, anaclitic and introjective depressive experiences, and dimensions of illness behavior in 37 chronic pain patients. Depth of depression and degree of introjective depressive experiences showed similar positive covariation with a broad range of illness behavior: Namely, hypochondriasis, disease conviction, affective inhibition, affective disturbance, and irritability. The findings suggest that depression characterized by feelings of guilt, worthlessness, and self‐doubt, rather than themes of abandonment, is associated differentially with disturbances in the illness behavior of chronic pain patient

摘要:

AbstractAdministered to mental health outpatients (N= 75) who were receiving Psychotherapy the Rational Behavior Inventory as well as several other scales of psychological adjustment prior to their first therapy session. Their therapists also completed several of these scales on their clients. This procedure was repeated for a subsample upon termination of treatment. Correlations were computed among measures, andt‐tests were conducted between pre‐ and posttreatment scores. Significant correlations were found between all measures in the expected directions, and significant pre‐ to postscale differences were identified consistent with the expected effects of treatment. These results are interpreted as initial evidence for the Rational Behavior Inventory's reliability and validity with a clinical group. Future research is suggested to examine the Rational Behavior Inventory's relationship to other measures of cognitive dysfun

摘要:

AbstractExamined the relationships among self‐regulatory behaviors, perceptions of social reinforcement from significant persons, and the problem‐solving performance of black adolescents (N= 33). The components of self‐regulatory processes–self‐reinforcement, self‐evaluation and self‐monitoring–were interrelated highly.Ss' perception of neither positive nor negative social reinforcement was related significantly to problem‐solving performance. Discussion centered around the effects of self‐responsibility and affective factors in the achievement orientation o

摘要:

AbstractAssessed the usefulness of the MMPI in predicting treatment outcome for chronic low back pain patients. One hundred and thirty‐two chronic low back pain patients who participated in a 6‐week rehabilitation program were differentiated according to “successful” outcome. Outcome was defined in three major ways: Vocational restoration, significantly improved physical mobility, and patients' subjective evaluations of improved functional level. Pretreatment MMPIs of all outcome groups were compared. Data were analyzed by examining individual scale scores and code‐types and by applying multiple regression analyses to the data. Results demonstrate that the MMPI can predict successful outcome. However, the strength of the relationship varies according to the outcome measure employed and the type of analysis completed on the data. It is concluded that, though an interesting research tool, at this time the MMPI is not a consistently valid clinical tool with the chronic back pain population in terms of predicting response to rehab

摘要:

AbstractDeveloped eight independent content scales to assess components of marital intimacy (Conflict Resolution, Affection, Cohesion, Sexuality, Identity, Compatibility, Autonomy, and Expressiveness). The measures were designed to be relatively free from social desirability and acquiescent responding (N= 248). Test retest and internal consistency reliabilities were high and sexual bias was not indicated.

摘要:

AbstractAssessed the applicability of standard clinical interpretations of the MMPI within a college counseling center. The relative classification rates and diagnostic accuracy of four actuarial and two one‐point code systems for the MMPI were evaluated. Two hundred and five female and 207 male college students were administered MMPIs. In addition, independent diagnoses were obtained on each student. Diagnoses were made on the basis of each of the code type systems. The results indicated that (a) only the one‐point code systems classified a large percentage of students who were diagnosed as neurotic, psychotic, or behavior disorder; (b) the accuracy of differential diagnosis among these psychiatric categories was at a satisfactory level for both male and female students with only the Gynther, Altman, and Sletten (1973a) and one‐point code systems; and (c) the Gilberstadt and Duker (1965) and one‐point code systems classified and excessively large percentage of students with minor adjustment problems as being neurotic, psychotic, or behavior d
