Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2013 im Fachbereich Pädagogik - Pädagogische Psychologie, Note: 1,0, Christian-Albrechts-Universität Kiel (Pädagogik), Veranstaltung: Begleitseminar zum Professionsfeld Soziale Arbeit - Jugendhilfe: Psychoanalytische Elemen-te in der sozialpädagogischen Praxis: Übertragung und Gegenübertragung, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Persönlichkeitsstörungen sind ein aktuelles Thema der heutigen Zeit, da mit Fortschritt der Forschung immer mehr Fälle zutage treten. Aufgelistet werden die unterschiedlichen Störungen mit den dazugehörigen Symptomen im DSM-IV. DSM steht für Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders und wurde von der American Psychiatric Association (APA) herausgegeben. In diesem Manual finden sich auch die beiden schweren Persönlichkeitsstörungen Borderline und Narzissmus. Da diese eng miteinander verbunden, aber dennoch unterschiedlich sind, liegt es nahe, sie in einem Vergleich genauer zu untersuchen. Was genau kennzeichnet eigentlich eine Persönlichkeitsstörung? Welche Auswirkungen haben Borderline und Narzissmus auf das menschliche Verhalten? Einen besonderen Schwerpunkt soll in dieser Hausarbeit auch das Kapitel über abweichendes Verhalten einnehmen. Da Persönlichkeitsstörungen oft mit dem Symptom der Aggression einhergehen, können auch abweichendes Verhalten und Kriminalität Folgen einer Persönlichkeitsstörung sein.
Sammelband aus dem Jahr 2024 im Fachbereich Psychologie - Arbeit, Betrieb, Organisation, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Dieser Sammelband enthält drei Hausarbeiten. Die erste Arbeit untersucht die folgenden Fragestellungen: Was genau kennzeichnet eigentlich eine Persönlichkeitsstörung? Welche Auswirkungen haben Borderline und Narzissmus auf das menschliche Verhalten? Einen besonderen Schwerpunkt soll in dieser Hausarbeit auch das Kapitel über abweichendes Verhalten einnehmen. Da Persönlichkeitsstörungen oft mit dem Symptom der Aggression einhergehen, können auch abweichendes Verhalten und Kriminalität Folgen einer Persönlichkeitsstörung sein. Die zweite Arbeit untersucht die Rolle von Narzissmus bei der Neubesetzung von Führungspositionen und zeigt auf, wie Unternehmen narzisstische Persönlichkeitsmerkmale bereits im Auswahlprozess erkennen können. Dabei werden verschiedene Methoden und Testverfahren zur Erfassung von Narzissmus vorgestellt und deren Anwendungsmöglichkeiten in Eignungsdiagnostikverfahren diskutiert. Ziel ist es, ein besseres Verständnis für die Auswirkungen von Narzissmus auf Organisationen zu gewinnen und Unternehmen bei der Auswahl geeigneter Führungskräfte zu unterstützen. Die dritte Arbeit untersucht Krisensituationen im beruflichen Umfeld und bietet Lösungsansätze für den Umgang mit einer narzisstischen Führungskraft sowie Burnout. Anhand einer Fallstudienanalyse werden konkrete Bewältigungsstrategien erarbeitet.
This book presents a thorough and critical review of current knowledge about the age of onset of mental disorders. The opening chapters offer information about the impact of the age of onset on the clinical picture, course, and outcome of physical illnesses, and about the neurobiological implications and correlates of different ages of onset. The impact and correlates of the ages of onset of all the most important mental disorders are then discussed in detail by internationally renowned scientists. The background to the book is the recognition that a better understanding of age of onset makes it possible to estimate the lifetime risk of disorders, helps to elucidate pathogenesis, and facilitates efficient, targeted clinical management. The book will be of value for clinicians, mental health professionals, mental health researchers, epidemiologists, and different stakeholders in the mental health field.
A supplementary text for undergraduate courses in personality and abnormal psychology, providing a systematic introduction to personality theory and personality disorders. Focus is on disorders new to DSM-III. Case studies, summary charts and review questions highlight important concepts.
When social psychologist Stanley Milgram invited volunteers to take part in an experiment at Yale in the summer of 1961, none of the participants could have foreseen the worldwide sensation that the published results would cause. Milgram reported that fully 65 percent of the volunteers had repeatedly administered electric shocks of increasing strength to a man they believed to be in severe pain, even suffering a life-threatening heart condition, simply because an authority figure had told them to do so. Such behavior was linked to atrocities committed by ordinary people under the Nazi regime and immediately gripped the public imagination. The experiments remain a source of controversy and fascination more than fifty years later. In Behind the Shock Machine, psychologist and author Gina Perry unearths for the first time the full story of this controversial experiment and its startling repercussions. Interviewing the original participants—many of whom remain haunted to this day about what they did—and delving deep into Milgram's personal archive, she pieces together a more complex picture and much more troubling picture of these experiments than was originally presented by Milgram. Uncovering the details of the experiments leads her to question the validity of that 65 percent statistic and the claims that it revealed something essential about human nature. Fleshed out with dramatic transcripts of the tests themselves, the book puts a human face on the unwitting people who faced the moral test of the shock machine and offers a gripping, unforgettable tale of one man's ambition and an experiment that defined a generation.
In the half-century since his death, the Hungarian analyst S ndor Ferenczi has amassed an influential following within the psychoanalytic community. During his lifetime Ferenczi, a respected associate and intimate of Freud, unleashed widely disputed ideas that influenced greatly the evolution of modern psychoanalytic technique and practice. In a sequence of short, condensed entries, S ndor Ferenczi's Diary records self-critical reflections on conventional theory--as well as criticisms of Ferenczi's own experiments with technique--and his obstinate struggle to divest himself and psychoanalysis of professional hypocrisy. From these pages emerges a hitherto unheard voice, speaking to his heirs with startling candor and forceful originality--a voice that still resonates in the continuing debates over the nature of the relationship in psychoanalytic practice.
Transference-Focused Psychotherapy for Borderline Personality Disorder: A Clinical Guide presents a model of borderline personality disorder (BPD) and its treatment that is based on contemporary psychoanalytic object relations theory as developed by the leading thinker in the field, Otto Kernberg, M.D., who is also one of the authors of this insightful manual. The model is supported and enhanced by material on current phenomenological and neurobiological research and is grounded in real-world cases that deftly illustrate principles of intervention in ways that mental health professionals can use with their patients. The book first provides clinicians with a model of borderline pathology that is essential for expert assessment and treatment planning and then addresses the empirical underpinnings and specific therapeutic strategies of transference-focused psychotherapy (TFP). From the chapter on clinical assessment, the clinician learns how to select the type of treatment on the basis of the level of personality organization, the symptoms the patient experiences, and the areas of compromised functioning. In order to decide on the type of treatment, the clinician must examine the patient's subjective experience (such as symptoms of anxiety or depression), observable behaviors (such as investments in relationships and deficits in functioning), and psychological structures (such as identity, defenses, and reality testing). Next, the clinician learns to establish the conditions of treatment through negotiating a verbal treatment contract or understanding with the patient. The contract defines the responsibilities of each of the participants and defines what the reality of the therapeutic relationship is. Techniques of treatment interventions and tactics to address particularly difficult clinical challenges are addressed next, equipping the therapist to employ the four primary techniques of TFP (interpretation, transference analysis, technical neutrality, and use of countertransference) and setting the stage for and guiding the proper use of those techniques within the individual session. What to expect in the course of long-term treatment to ameliorate symptoms and to effect personality change is covered, with sections on the early, middle, and late phases of treatment. This material prepares the clinician to deal with predictable phases, such as tests of the frame, impulse containment, movement toward integration, episodes of regression, and termination. Finally, the text is accompanied by supremely instructive online videos that demonstrate a variety of clinical situations, helping the clinician with assessment and modeling critical therapeutic strategies. The book recognizes that each BPD patient presents a unique treatment challenge. Grounded in the latest research and rich with clinical insight, Transference-Focused Psychotherapy for Borderline Personality Disorder: A Clinical Guide will prove indispensable to mental health professionals seeking to provide thoughtful, effective care to these patients.

Many forms of present-day Western spirituality contribute to people’s well-being, whereas others have raised criticism. The study of these different forms is, however, complicated by their continuously diverging practices and ideas. By bringing to bear a multidisciplinary approach, the ten specialists of this volume are able to analyze diverse new instances of spirituality, e.g. in religious contexts (Buddhism, Christianity), popular use, organizations and enterprises, (alternative) health service, and works of art. Most contributions also discuss methods and theories. In their editorial chapters, Elisabeth Hense, Frans Jespers and Peter Nissen show the remarkable overlaps in the approaches, definitions and evaluations of the contributions in this volume and provide a theoretical framework. Both the fresh analyses and the theoretical reflections in this volume point the way to new approaches in this field of study. Contributors include: Jerry Biberman, Mark Elliott, Miguel Farias, Johan Goud, Paul Heelas, Elisabeth Hense, Frans Jespers, Hubert Knoblauch, Peter Nissen, Paul van der Velde
