  • Mental Misrepresentation in Non-Human Psychopathology
    Biosemiotics (2017) 10:195–210 DOI 10.1007/s12304-017-9299-2 Mental Misrepresentation in Non-human Psychopathology Krystyna Bielecka1 & Mira Marcinów2 Received: 25 October 2016 /Accepted: 10 July 2017 /Published online: 4 August 2017 # The Author(s) 2017. This article is an open access publication Abstract In this paper, we defend a representational approach to at least some kinds of non-human psychopathology. Mentally-ill non-human minds, in particular in delusions, obsessive-compulsive disorders and similar cognitive states, are traditionally under- stood in purely behavioral terms. In contrast, we argue that non-human mental psy- chopathology should be at least sometimes not only ascribed contentful mental repre- sentation but also understood as really having these states. To defend this view, we appeal to the interactivist account of mental representation, which is a kind of a constructive approach to meaning. We follow Mark Bickhard in assuming that only an organism – either human or non-human – capable of detecting its own misrepre- sentations is representational. However, under his autonomy-based account of biolog- ical function these minds are incapable of misrepresentations because these minds are, ex hypothesi, unable to detect error in such representations. To solve this problem, we argue that adding a historical dimension – as in Millikan’s view on mental represen- tations – to Bickhard’s account of function makes mental misrepresentation of mentally-ill minds possible. Using Bickhard’s dynamic account of function, it is possible to explain why delusions and other mental disorders can be seen as locally functional. However, an etiological dimension can further explain why misrepresenta- tions seem to be globally dysfunctional.

  • A PSYCHOBIOGRAPHICAL STUDY of TEMPLE GRANDIN a Thesis
    A PSYCHOBIOGRAPHICAL STUDY OF TEMPLE GRANDIN A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Rhodes University Nicola Wannenburg 603w1753 Supervisor: Professor Roelf van Niekerk December 2016 ABSTRACT Psychobiographical researchers methodically formulate life histories and interpret them by means of psychological theories. The research typically focuses on exemplary and completed lives. The cases that are studied are usually of individuals who are of particular interest to society as a result of excelling in their particular fields, be they to benefit or detriment of society. Temple Grandin was chosen for this study using purposive sampling as she meets the psychobiographical requirement of being an extraordinary individual. As an individual with autism Grandin faced many challenges growing up. Despite a difficult and absent beginning, Grandin developed into a stable and scientifically creative adult who contributes to society. She excels as an animal scientist and designer of humane livestock handling facilities and has an international reputation for her contribution to the livestock industry and animal welfare. The primary aim of this study is to describe and interpret the life of Temple Grandin through Erikson’s (1950/1973) theory of psychosocial development. A mixed method approach (Yin, 2006) was employed for the conduction of this study. The overarching data processing and analysis guidelines for this study were provided by Miles and Huberman (1994, 2002a, 2002b). The conduction of the processing and analysis of data was aided by Alexander’s (1988, 1990) method of asking the data questions as well as an integration of Yin’s (2014) time series analysis with Erikson’s (1950/1973) triple bookkeeping approach.

    378 ANN IST SUPER SANITÀ 2011 | VOL. 47, NO. 4: 378-383 DOI: 10.4415/ANN_11_04_09 LTH Managing behavioural problems A HE in human-dog interactions L A Giulia Bompadre(a) and Stefano Cinotti(b) MENT (a) Centro Studi sulle Terapie Assistite da Animali – DCV, N I Alma Mater Studiorum, Università di Bologna, Italy (b)Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale della Lombardia e dell’Emilia Romagna, Brescia, Italy ONS I ENT V Summary. The management of dog behavioural problems requires the expertise of professionals such as the veterinary behaviourist. Clinical assessment of behavioural disorders allows the vet- NTER I erinary behaviourist to formulate a diagnosis and prescribe a behavioural and/or pharmacological D therapy. The objective of such therapy is to produce a stable change in the perception of a stimulus STE I and the resulting emotion, leading to the correction of the behavioural problem. It may be crucial SS A to evaluate the subject’s pathological state in response to the observed symptoms in order to identify - L the functional impairment of the pivotal neurotransmitter systems involved in the disorder. This al- A M lows selecting a suitable pharmacological treatment. In order to implement behavioural therapy, the I N veterinary behaviourist collaborates, where necessary, with a team of qualified canine trainers. A Key words: dog, animal behaviour, veterinary behaviourist, behavioural therapy, pharmacological therapy. Riassunto (Gestione dei problemi comportamentali nell’interazione uomo-cane). La gestione dei di- sturbi comportamentali nel cane richiede competenze professionali e specialistiche. Attualmente la figura professionale di riferimento è quella del medico veterinario comportamentalista. L’approccio di tipo clinico al disturbo comportamentale riportato dal proprietario del cane permette al medico veterinario comportamentalista di formulare una diagnosi e di prescriverne la terapia comporta- mentale e/o farmacologica.
