As a reseach in the field of practical theology, in methodological terms, this thesis follows the steps of the hermeneutical arc proposed by Ricoeur (1976, 2002, 2016), from the perspective of the Psychological Biblical Criticism (Rollins 1983, Kille, 2001, 2004; Ellens, 2012). In the first part of this study a detailed review of current research on posttraumatic coping in the field of psychology is made. Then we examine exegetically four selected texts from 2 Corinthians that describe the ways in which Paul faced various traumatic events in his life. Each paragraph is analyzed looking for the texts to show their world and their own sense, to then identify the hermeneutical keys of coping that are observed in them. After a careful analysis, eleven keys of coping present in the selected Pauline texts were categorized: 1) Paradoxical identity that marks the experience of the Apostle as a phenomenon of self- understanding that incorporates the awareness of fragility and constant vulnerability to hardship, but simultaneously united to the perception of itself as triumphant to adversity, thanks to its unconditional link with the sacred, manifested in Jesus as the Messiah; 2) Experience of faith understood as fidelity and perseverance, especially in the midst of tribulations, in such a way that resisting, overcoming and even growing out of suffering is described as an expression of authentic faith and genuine affection for Jesus as Lord; 3) Resignification of death and traumatic events, as circumstances of a negative nature that is relativized and whose harmful effects are not perceived as chronic; 4) Coping associated with an altruistic practice towards his brothers and sisters in faith; 5) Coping with a marked character of eschatological type; 6) Explicit and habitual expression of the traumatic events experienced, which implies taking charge of them, without denying nor evading them; 7) Detachment from the material or visible things, considering these aspects of life as facets of reality that are not definitive, but as manifestations of a preliminary plan that will disappear; 8) Identification with Jesus as a model of coping with extreme adversities; 9) Thanksgiving or gratitude, as a permanent practice, in both favorable and unfavorable circumstances; 10) 15 Perception of the consoling presence of God constantly in the midst of suffering; and 11) Prayer described as a personal and community behavior of concrete beneficial influence in life. Finally, a conversation between these findings and the current psychological contributions on positive coping of trauma, allowed us to corroborate the significant similarities between the approaches of Paul regarding coping in extreme adverse events and the outcomes of this research on hardiness, resilience, posttraumatic growth and positive religious coping. Among the main conclusions reached in this investigation, we can highlight that Paul offered, in the analyzed texts of 2 Corinthians, coping modalities that showed a permanent search for "sense of coherence" (Antonovsky, 1979, 1984, 1987, 1993), which involves the comprehensibility, manageability and meaningfulness of adverse events, but in his case, from a fundamentally theological framework ("sense of theological coherence"). In addition, it was found, when looking for common factors in the coping keys observed in the Pauline texts, that these can be synthesized in the so called "theological virtues": faith, hope and love, besides the concept of identity in Christ, which function as dispositions that allow the religious/spiritual articulation of traumatic events, both on a personal and community level. The present study sought to develop a practical theology (defined as theological understanding of Christian praxis) of posttrau- matic coping in a Pauline perspective. We believe that this study has achieved a significant understanding of hardiness, resilience, posttraumatic growth and positive religious coping modalities, from a theological perspective, which can contribute to the development of new practices of pastoral care, especially in contexts of adversity.

Doctor of Philosophy (Clinical Psychology), August 2004, 122 pp., 5 tables, references, 160 titles. This project investigated the metacognitive strategies used to appraise obsessive thoughts employed by individuals with different anxiety symptoms. Two hundred and eighty seven undergraduate students completed two repertory grids and three anxiety scales. The repertory grids respectively examined the appraisal process of intrusive thoughts both from the perspective of the rater and the rater’s imagined average person. Variables quantified from the rep grid related to the construal process of raters’ own intrusions, failed to demonstrate robust differences between OCD, non-OCD anxious, and non-anxious individuals. However, it appears that anxious individuals, not just those with OCD, use metacognitive strategies to suppress rigid constructions under perceived social evaluation. Future studies may wish to use related grid variables to explore the relation between obsessions and social anxiety. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to acknowledge all the research assistants who helped me collect and code the data, along with faculty members who offered me guidance in this project.

  • The Embodied Self and Wordless Knowing
    SrnrcR KNuurru-R Sounding Out the Core: The Embodied Self and Wordless Knowing This essay outlines the concept of the embodied self as a tentative part in for- mulating postrational subjectivity. It serves the idea of empathic reading that can resist numbness under the pressure of growing media. Postulating a self which has an embodied core implies a capability of becoming aware and re- flecting affectively on the non-verbal exchange of self and other. For this pur- pose, I investigate the neural basis of this hypothesis in terms of Antonio Damasio, and adapt it to Daniel N. Stern's idea of the present moment as the felt locus of implicit knowing. Moreover, to illuminate the working of the em- bodied self in reading, I use as an example Friederike Mayröcker's poem "Fotografie." Since the poem sensitively echoes implicit memory in traumatic loss, I explore its figures as multisensory signs which the poet transfers from her emotional memory into language. Especially the metonymies of the poem express the dual affect of sorrow and love when verbally bridging the temporal delay typical of traumatic memory. I. Towards Embodied Symbolization As I read Friederike Mayröcker's poem "Fotografie" for the first time in 2004, its perceptual and emotional power pervaded my reading experience on a mul- tisensory bodily level. Every time since, Mayröcker's lyrical 'l' epitomizes for me a profound sense of dialogical subjectivity with her beloved, Ernst Jandl. When viewing an old photo in 2003, three years after Jandl's death, Mayröcker writes: Photography for Ernst Jandl with his big left hand he covers my big right hand with his big warm left hand he covers my big cold right hand I have hidden my big right cold hand his big left warm hand rests protectively on my fleeting 52 Sirkka Knuuttila right big cold hand while Stefan Moses is taking our picture in the year'76 each ofus covering up face with the other big hand (as Stefan Moses asks) - we hold on to each other in this unprepossessing gesture that in retrospect brings tears to my invisible eye .

  • A Historical and Theoretical Review of Cognitive Behavioral Therapies: from Structural Self‑Knowledge to Functional Processes
    J Rat-Emo Cognitive-Behav Ther https://doi.org/10.1007/s10942-018-0292-8 A Historical and Theoretical Review of Cognitive Behavioral Therapies: From Structural Self‑Knowledge to Functional Processes Giovanni M. Ruggiero1,2 · Marcantonio M. Spada5 · Gabriele Caselli2,3,4 · Sandra Sassaroli2,3,4 © The Author(s) 2018 Abstract This paper critically examines the historical conceptualization of cogni- tive behavioral psychotherapy approaches (CBT) as a direct clinical counterpart of the cognitive revolution. The main “second wave” cognitive psychotherapies, either standard cognitive therapy (CT) or constructivist, in spite of their diferences, share a common conceptualization of psychopathological factors as superordinate struc- tural cognitive content belonging to the self: self-beliefs, self-schemata, personal- ity organizations and so on. On the other hand, rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT) is an exception given that in REBT self-knowledge is not the core psycho- pathological tenet, being rather a derivate mechanism. Moreover, in non clinical cognitive science cognition is conceived as a regulatory function that operates ret- roactively and not in a hierarchically super- ordered fashion centered on the self. A historical review suggests that in both CT and constructivist model the structural- istic model of self-centered cognition may have emerged for both cultural and sci- entifc reasons: self-centered cognitive models may be more readily understandable to clinicians as they allow for a straightforward identifcation of operationalizable

    Comparative Analysis of Psychotherapy Integrative Theories Irena Tojcic A Thesis submitted in parlial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Psychology University of Canterbury Christchurch New Zealand August 2000 I b:lr; 1000 In memory ofmy father Z 4 r~ov 2000 Acknowledgements It would be impossible to admowledge all the people who have helped me reach this very important stage of my life and, therefore, I am going to mention the most significant ones. First, I would like to thank my supervisor Ken Strongman for giving me all the necessary emotional and practical support that I have needed in pursuing my academic comeback. I would also like to thank my fonner supervisor Tony Ward who helped me lay the foundations for my thesis, as well as Brian Haig who first drew my attention to theoretical research. Last but not least, I regard myself as being very lucky to have shared my life's journey with my beloved husband Goran and our terrific son Sven who have made everything seem worthwhile. Abstract Psychotherapy represents a diverse and controversial field. It is characterised by an excessive proliferation of various psychotherapeutic approaches accompanied by the sectarian attitudes of a majority of psychotherapists. In response to these, the psychotherapy integration movement was established. Within this movement three ways of psychotherapy integration have emerged, namely, theoretical integration, common factors approach and technical eclecticism. Methodological issues of theoretical integration are the focus of interest in this thesis. The current methodological recommendations in this area seem to be very limited. A specific method of assimilative integration has been proposed and the necessity of the existence of metatheoretical congruence between theories to be integrated has been emphasised.

Revista de Psicoterapia, 30(112), 91-102. https://doi.org/10.33898/rdp.v30i112.284 Abstract The main purpose of this article is to mention the most important Guidano’s approach contributions to modern psychotherapy and psychopathology. In his cultural and interpretative psychology, rooted in evolutionary epistemology, the mind is the link between the individual and his biology, the external world, and his story. Beginning from the emergence of mentalism among primates, Guidano offers a new explanation of psychosis and psychopathology, for understanding and for curing, based on the integration of three levels of self-meaning: individual, familial, and social. With contextualization, a phylogenic way of remaining connected with the group, as the ontogenic way of child developing that takes place in the family context, through the attachment bonds, it becomes possible to put in sequence the personal experience and integrate it inside the self, to maintain life coherence and continuity. Both psychotherapy and psychiatry are in need of a plausible theory of mind that is able to offer an understanding of basic inherited human feelings, language and meanings as evolutionary tools that are necessary for a functioning health human: the mind and the brain are the same thing.
