  • Perception of Social Loafing, Conflict, and Emotion in the Process of Group Development
    PERCEPTION OF SOCIAL LOAFING, CONFLICT, AND EMOTION IN THE PROCESS OF GROUP DEVELOPMENT A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY MIN ZHU IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DR. DEAN E. HEWES, ADVISER AUGUST, 2013 © Min Zhu 2013 i ABSTRACT This study was conducted for two purposes. The first was to find out trend patterns for perceived social loafing, the four types of intra-group conflict (i.e., task, relationship, logistic, and contribution), and positive vs. negative emotions, in the group’s developmental process. The second was to explain how perceived social loafing was aroused based upon the knowledge of intra-group conflicts and negative emotions. Participants (n = 164) were required to report their personal perception of social loafing, intra-group conflicts, emotions (i.e., anger, fatigue, vigor, confusion, tension, depression, and friendliness), and the stage of group development, in their current small group interaction. Four major findings emerged out of the data analysis. First, perceived social loafing, relationship conflict, logistical conflict, contribution conflict, and negative emotions all followed a reversed V-shaped trend of development with their respective peaks observed at Stage 2 (i.e., Counterdependency and Fight), whereas task conflict followed a slanted, N-shaped, but relatively stable, trend over the course of group development. Second, positive emotions developed in a V-shaped trend pattern, wherein the lowest point was observed at Stage 2 and highest point at Stage 4 (i.e., Work). Third, the perception of social loafing was found to be directly and positively influenced by contribution conflict and negative emotions, while task conflict, logistical conflict, and relationship conflict did not have direct positive effects on perceived social loafing.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from die document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Narcissistic Vulnerability in the Hyperaggressive Child: the Disregarded (Unloved, Uncared-For) Self
    PSYCHOANALYTIC PSYCHOLOGY, 1986, 3(1), 39-80 Copyright © 1986, Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, Inc. Narcissistic Vulnerability in the Hyperaggressive Child: The Disregarded (Unloved, Uncared-for) Self Brent Willock, Ph.D. C. M. Hincks Treatment Centre Efforts to treat hyperaggressive children frequently break down in a manner which reinforces the feeling that these children are beyond the reach of psycho- therapeutic intervention. This study was undertaken in an attempt to elucidate the essential nature of the psychopathology of these children in order to provide a better foundation for the therapeutic enterprise. One finding was that much of their violent behavior is related to underlying narcissistic vulnerability, one facet of which is here termed the disregarded self. Much of the child's aggres- sive, antisocial behavior can be understood as an attempt to cope with and de- fend against the hurt, the anger, and the anxiety associated with this aspect of self-structure. Origins of the disregarded self are considered from a psychody- namic perspective integrating child-rearing, sociocultural, and psycho- biological factors. The implications of this concept for individual psychother- apy and milieu treatment are discussed. INTRODUCTION This report concerns a population of children whose violent, unmanageable behavior has earned them considerable notoriety in both educational and clinical milieus. Their expressive and defensive style, replete with loud threats and sudden, wildly destructive outbursts, typically leads to increasingly nega- tive reputations in their communities, and at a young age they may already be well known to local authorities. Less well known is what to do about them, particularly how to really help them.

INGRAM WORKING WITH SPOUSES OF THE CHRONICALLY ILL How Clinicians Feel about Working with Spouses of the Chronically Ill Douglas H. Ingram Abstract: Clinicians who provide psychotherapy to spouses or partners of the chronically ill were solicited through listserves of psychodynamic and other organizations. The current report excluded those therapists working with spouses of dementia patients. Interviews were conducted with clinicians who responded. The interviews highlight the challenges commonly encountered by psychotherapeutic work with this cohort of therapy patients. A comparison is drawn that shows both overlap and distinctions between the experiences of those therapists engaging with spouses of chronically ill patients without a dementing process and those working with spouses of chronically ill patients who do suffer from a dementing process.
