  • The War Against Women in Psycho Analytic Culture
    THE WAR AGAINST WOMEN IN PSYCHOANALYTIC CULTURE An Investigation YY6937-PSOC-69.indd6937-PSOC-69.indd 3333 33/10/16/10/16 110:06:200:06:20 AAMM The War against Women in Psychoanalytic Culture Introduction to the Section CLAUDIA LAMENT, PH.D. Freud is the father of psycho analysis. It had no mother. — Germaine Greer, The Female Eunuch The phrase “the war against women” refers to the overt and stealth global prejudice against women that aims to subjugate them. Freud was not im- mune to this prejudice, as can be seen in those late-nineteenth-century Vic- torian views about sexuality that helped to shape his conceptualizations of gender. Despite the fact that many of these antediluvian views have been overturned, some continue to live on in the contemporary psychoanalytic scene. This introduction provides an overview of the contributions in this section, which explore how the war quietly or openly insinuates its way into our psycho analytic culture. The offerings will undoubtedly appeal to the readership, whether one’s interest concerning the war leans toward considering a contemporary recontextualization of foundational tenets within the psychoanalytic setting, which directly affect women; how it ap- pears within the domain of the consulting room; third-wave feminism’s reach into theory and practice; or forms of institutional and organiza- tional prejudice on the local and national levels, including the fi eld of child analysis. Claudia Lament is a Training and Supervising Analyst at the Institute for Psychoanalytic Education, an affi liate of the New York University Langone School of Medicine. She is As- sistant Clinical Professor in the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, the Child Study Center, New York University Langone Medical Center.

  • The Life Narrative at Midlife
    McAdams, D. P. (2014). The life narrative at midlife. In B. Schiff (Ed.), Rereading Personal Narrative and the Life Course. New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 145, 57–69. 5 The Life Narrative at Midlife Dan P.McAdams Abstract In a remarkably prescient chapter,Bertram Cohler (1982) reimagined the prob- lems and the potentialities of psychological development across the life course as a distinctively human challenge in life narration. This chapter situates Cohler’s original vision within the intellectual and scienti c matrix of the late 1970s, wherein psychologists expressed grave doubts about the extent to which human lives may demonstrate consistency and coherence. By focusing attention on hu- man beings as autobiographical authors rather than as mere social actors or motivated agents, Cohler moved the conversation away from dispositional per- sonality traits and developmental stages and toward the emerging concept of narrative identity. Over the past 30 years, research on narrative identity has shown how people use stories to integrate the reconstructed past and imagined future, providing their lives with some semblance of unity, purpose, and mean- ing. At midlife, many adults struggle to solve the problem of generativity, aiming to leave a positive legacy for the next generation. Inspired by Cohler’s original chapter,contemporary research reveals that the most generative adults in Amer- ican society tend to construe their lives as narratives of personal redemption. As such, life stories may serve as valuable psychological resources for midlife adults, even as they re"ect and refract prevailing cultural themes. 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

  • Heroes Who Learn to Love Their Monsters: How Fantasy Film Characters Can Inspire the Journey of Individuation for Gay and Lesbian Clients in Psychotherapy
    Heroes Who Learn to Love Their Monsters: How Fantasy Film Characters Can Inspire the Journey of Individuation for Gay and Lesbian Clients in Psychotherapy Roger Kaufman Published in Using Superheroes in Counseling and Play Therapy Edited by Lawrence Rubin New York: Springer (2007) Introduction In The Lord of the Rings film epic, the brave hobbit named Frodo Baggins, questing in partnership with his loyal companion, Samwise Gamgee, can only destroy the evil Ring if he develops empathy for the tortured and deformed creature called Gollum (Jackson, 2001, 2002, 2003). Meanwhile, in the original Star Wars trilogy, it is Luke Skywalker’s reborn love for his true father underneath the black helmet that redeems Darth Vader (Lucas, 1977; Kershner, 1980; Marquand, 1983). And at the beginning of the film, Aliens, Lt. Ellen Ripley braces herself for an anticipated encounter with her vicious, reptilian extra-terrestrial nemesis, only to find instead a filthy, frantic, and traumatized human girl named Newt (Cameron, 1986). This evocative theme of the hero’s compassion for the grotesque and wounded leading toward accomplishment of great goals closely parallels the heroic journey that ideally every client in a course of psychodynamic psychotherapy embarks on: initial frightful encounter with the material of the unconscious in “shadow” form, growing ability to understand and value the disturbing, numinous imagery of the psyche, and eventual progress toward the achievement of integrated psychological wholeness. On the pages that follow, I would like to highlight the value of using heroic themes from fantasy and science fiction films when working in a gay-centered psychoanalytic way with adult gay and lesbian clients, whose valiant life journeys in the face of familial and societal homophobia and heterosexism deserve mirroring on the epic scale of such sagas as Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings.

  • Expression Levels Influence Ribosomal Frameshifting at the Tandem Rare
    Lisa M. Diamond Careful What You Ask For: Reconsidering Feminist Epistemology and Autobiographical Narrative in Research on Sexual Identity Development | eminist theory has had aii undoubtable—but inconsistent—influence | on developmental psychology. Although feminist perspectives have I productively challenged developmental models centered on male ex­ periences (Gilligan 1982) and have called attention to socialization prac­ tices that reproduce systematic gender inequalities (Bern 1993), more radical feminist perspectives on scientific epistemology and methodology have had considerably less influence (see Rosser and Miller 2003). On the whole, developmental psychologists tend to embrace the logical-positivist goals and assumptions of straightforward empiricism (summarized in Sprague and Zimmerman 1993), emphasizing the pursuit of objective, quantifiable facts about human development that are free of historical and personal bias. In contrast, feminist standpoint epistemology and feminist postmodernism would claim that objective understanding of human de­ velopment is fundamentally impossible and that psychological models of development function as culturally specific origin-stories reinforcing the interests of dominant social groups.1 Although many psychologists would consider these critiques to be fun­ damentally irreconcilable with standard empirical methods (see Chafetz 2004), others have sought workable compromises between feminist epis­ temology and empirical research.2 These compromises are typically man­ ifested in qualitative interview studies that aim to empower research par­ ticipants by allowing them to articulate their own subjective experiences and to replace statistical reductionism with thick description.3 I gratefully acknowledge Monisha Pasupathi and Judi Hilman for their comments on earlier versions of this article. 1 Hartsock 1983; Harding 1986, 1991; Collins 1990; Haraway 1991. 2 Longino 1990; Nelson 1990; Nielsen 1990; Allen 2004; Baber 2004.
