Beyond WEIRD: Psychobiography in Times of Transcultural and Transdisciplinary Perspectives

This volume presents psychobiographical research in non-WEIRD—Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich and Democratic—contexts and samples, focusing on culture, transcultural and transdisciplinary work. It creates a platform for researchers, scholars and scientists from diverse backgrounds to put forth new theoretical and methodological stances in psychobiography, thereby making the field more inclusive, diverse and equitable. The chapters in this volume investigate the role of context across the life course of non-WEIRD psychological subjects, as well as the interplay between them and their environments across the life span. They further elucidate cognitive, affective and behavioural aspects of individuals with non-WEIRD backgrounds.The volume provides a broad and at the same time in-depth perspective into psychobiography beyond the usual contexts and therefore has new and original learnings to offer across disciplines and cultures. It is a breakthrough in terms of its transcultural and transdisciplinary insights into lives lived in different contexts in the world."Every person is in certain respects (a) like all other persons, (b) like some other persons, (c) like no other persons. This book is a challenging and fascinating exploration of extending psychobiography beyond its origins in Europe and America to women and men of different races and social and economic classes from Africa, Asia, and around the world. At its best, psychobiography can increase people's awareness of their own subjective experience and that of others, contributing to movements for social, cultural and political change." William McKinley Runyan, Professor Emeritus & Professor of the Graduate School, School of Social Welfare, U. of California BerkeleyBeyond Weird is beyond needed. The book triumphantly fills the gap created by a dearth of studies of people other than Western, educated, European and American men.

Beyond White Mindfulness: Critical Perspectives on Racism, Well-being and Liberation

Beyond White Mindfulness: Critical Perspectives on Racism, Well-being, and Liberation brings together interdisciplinary perspectives on mind-body interventions, group-based identities, and social justice. Marshalling both empirical data and theoretical approaches, the book examines a broad range of questions related to mindfulness, meditation, and diverse communities. While there is growing public interest in mind-body health, holistic wellness, and contemplative practice, critical research examining on these topics featuring minority perspectives and experiences is relatively rare. This book draws on cutting edge insights from psychology, sociology, gender, and, critical race theory to fill this void. Major themes include culture, identity, and awareness; intersectional approaches to the study of mindfulness and minority stress; cultural competence in developing and teaching mindfulness-based health interventions, and the complex relationships between mindfulness, inequality, and social justice. The first book of its kind to bring together scholarly and personal reflections on mindfulness for diverse populations, Beyond White Mindfulness offers social science students and practitioners in this area a new perspective on mindfulness and suggestions for future scholarship.

Beziehung und Deutung im psychotherapeutischen Prozeß: Aus der Sicht verschiedener therapeutischer Schulen

Beziehung und Deutung aus der Sicht verschiedener psychotherapeutischer Schulen: Zur Entstehung und Konzeption des vorliegenden Bandes Walter Spiel Es ist das entscheidende Merkmal der psychotherapeutischen Ausbildung und Forschung an meiner Klinik (Universitätsklinik für Neuropsychiatrie des Kindes­ und Jugendalters, Wien), verschiedene Schulauffassungen und therapeutische Set­ tings in ihrer Wirkungsweise, Effizienz und Kapazität, bezogen auf die verschie­ densten Krankheitsbilder, darzustellen. Im Rahmen dieses Programms organi­ sierte Toni Reinelt im Sommersemester 1984 ein Seminar über "Deutung und Beziehung im therapeutischen Prozeß", zu dem eine Reihe namhafter Referenten eingeladen war. Dabei sollte es vor allem um die Erhellung dieser Thematik aus tiefenpsychologischer Sicht gehen; doch ließen die dort zur Sprache gekommenen Themen, Positionen und Kontroversen bald fragen, ob an der Problematik von "Deutung und Beziehung" nicht die Charakteristik der einzelnen psychotherapeu­ tischen Schulen in ihrer jüngeren Gestalt insgesamt aufgezeigt und diskutiert wer­ den kann. Diese Überlegungen auch auf das Problem der Ausgestaltung psycho­ therapeutischer Prozesse auszuweiten, schien weiters deshalb reizvoll zu sein, weil das Problem der Verschränktheit von Deutung und Beziehung in letzter Zeit ins­ 1 besonders von Psychoanalytikern diskutiert wurde und deren bemerkenswerte Beiträge überdies die Frage provozierten, wie diese Verschränktheit inzwischen aus der Sicht anderer therapeutischer Richtungen beurteilt wird; denn einige jün­ 2 gere Arbeiten zur Therapeut-Patient-Beziehung legen ja durchaus die Erwartung nahe, daß auch in so manchen nichttiefenpsychologischen Schulen gewisse tradi­ tionelle Auffassungen zum Beziehungs- und Deutungsproblem verlassen bzw. erheblich weiterentwickelt und modifiziert wurden.

Beziehungsdiagnostik und Beziehungstherapie: Wo stehen wir heute?

Beziehungsgestaltung im interkulturellen Coaching: Eine erste empirische Annäherung

Daniel Pauw untersucht erstmals in einer internationalen Studie, wie Coaches mit Klienten unterschiedlicher kultureller Herkunft eine tragfähige Arbeitsbeziehung aufbauen und erhalten. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass kulturelle Prägungen den Coachingprozess auf verschiedenste Weise beeinflussen können und welche Faktoren für eine erfolgreiche Beziehungsgestaltung besonders wichtig sind. Die Verknüpfung der Ergebnisse mit Erkenntnissen aus der interkulturellen Kommunikations- und Therapieforschung erweitert nicht nur die aktuelle Coachingforschung um eine interkulturelle Perspektive, sondern bietet auch Praktikern konkrete Handlungsempfehlungen für den kompetenten Umgang mit kultureller Diversität.Diese Arbeit wurde mit dem Erdinger Coaching-Preis 2016 ausgezeichnet.

BFF?: The truth about female friendship

Why do some friendships last a lifetime, while others fade away?How do you break up with a friend? How many 'best' friends should we be aiming for? From the time we start school, we are fed a diet of 'Best Friends Forever' - the idea that you should have a female soulmate to whom you tell all your secrets and who always has your back. It's the stuff of Hollywood films, but for most of us it isn't achievable. We spend years striving for a vision of female friendship that isn't realistic instead of searching for what suits us best or appreciating what we've already got.BFF? is an agenda-setting, personal and humorous book that pulls back the cover on the most underappreciated relationships in our lives to interrogate what modern friendship means, why we need it and what we can do to get the most from it. Featuring interviews with brilliant women, including Emma Barnett, Pandora Sykes, Nimco Ali and Jilly Cooper - as well as the intimate friendship stories of women from all walks of life - Claire Cohen argues that, unlike romance, friendship is much harder to pin down and. And it shows how often our friendships are taken for granted.An antidote to the idea that every woman must belong to a perfect girl gang, this book is a warm and reassuring guide to help women deepen their female friendships in ways that are meaningful and enduring._________________________________'It took me until my thirties to feel truly secure in my friendships - my female ones in particular. I truly believe that if I'd had a book like this when I was younger, it would have fallen into place sooner. That I'd have been happier, more trusting and able to deal with any bumps in the road. That's why I want us all to start telling the truth about female friendship. Because if I - raised in a house full of women, the product of two all-girls schools and the women's editor of a national newspaper - found it hard to trust, open up and had convinced myself that female friends 'weren't for me', then you might not have it worked out either.'

The Bi-Personal Field: Experiences in Child Analysis (The New Library of Psychoanalysis #Vol. 38)

In The Bi-Personal Field Antonino Ferro sets out his new conceptual system for analysis, considering not only the inner world of the patient but the continued interaction of that world with the inner world of the analyst. The book takes a fresh look at the main aspects of theory and technique in psychoanalysis in the light of Kleinian developments. It reflects the drastic changes due to the thinking of Bion. Illustrated with numerous detailed clinical examples, the author claims that the basic focus of the analytic relationship is the conscious and unconscious interpersonal/ intersubjective processes going on between the analyst and patient.

Bi-Valenz der Erfahrung: Assoziation, Imaginäres und Trieb in der Genesis der Subjektivität bei Husserl und Freud (Phaenomenologica #229)

Edmund Husserls Phänomenologie und Sigmund Freuds Psychoanalyse sind zwei große Denktraditionen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Erstmals wird in diesem Buch die lebendige problemgebundene Beziehung zwischen beiden untersucht, und zwar ausgehend von Husserls genetischer Phänomenologie. Im Fokus stehen drei große Erfahrungsbereiche des Menschen: die Assoziation, die Phantasie und der Trieb. Wie sich zeigt, spielen alle drei eine Schlüsselrolle, sowohl für Husserls als auch für Freuds Denken.Die Autorin hat für ihre Studie veröffentlichte wie auch unveröffentlichte Texte aus dem Werk Husserls berücksichtigt und die Ergebnisse lassen die Phänomenologie in einem neuen Licht erscheinen. So rücken in diesem Buch, anders als im allgemein-philosophischen Verständnis von Intentionalität, spezifische Formen der phantasmatischen und imaginären Intentionalität in den Vordergrund. Auf diese Weise betrachtet, zeigt sich die subjektive Erfahrung als eine menschliche Entwicklungsstruktur, die unter einer doppelten Ordnung steht: Wir und unsere Welt sind nicht nur durch Wahrnehmung strukturiert, sondern auch durch imaginäre Leistungen, durch triebhafte Tendenzen und unbewusste Wünsche. Die Autorin findet dafür den Begriff der Bi-Valenz, der Zweiwertigkeit der personalen Realität.Mit dieser Untersuchung werden zwei Ziele erreicht. Einerseits befreit die Autorin das Trieb-Verständnis der Psychoanalyse von seinem naturalistischen Rest, andererseits eröffnet sie für die Phänomenologie einen neuen Bereich anschaulicher Erfahrung: das dynamische Unbewusste. Das Medium dieser Erfahrung ist eine starke, produktive Phantasie, die aus triebhaften Quellen schöpft und unsere Realität mit-gestaltet. Der Band richtet sich an Studierende und Wissenschaftler, die sich für genetische Phänomenologie und die Philosophie der Psychoanalyse interessieren.

Bias, Belief, and Conviction in an Age of Fake Facts (Routledge Research in Cultural and Media Studies)

In this book, authors engage in an interdisciplinary discourse of theory and practice on the concept of personal conviction, addressing the variety of grey zones that mark the concept. Bias, Belief, and Conviction in an Age of Fake Facts discusses where our convictions come from and whether we are aware of them, why they compel us to certain actions, and whether we can change our convictions when presented with opposing evidence, which prove our personal convictions "wrong". Scholars from philosophy, psychology, comparative literature, media studies, applied linguistics, intercultural communication, and education shed light on the topic of personal conviction, crossing disciplinary boundaries and asking questions not only of importance to scholars but also related to the role and possible impact of conviction in the public sphere, education, and in political and cultural discourse. By taking a critical look at personal conviction as an element of inquiry within the humanities and social sciences, this book will contribute substantially to the study of conviction as an aspect of the self we all carry within us and are called upon to examine. It will be of particular interest to scholars in communication and journalism studies, media studies, philosophy, and psychology.
