Incurable Psychopaths?
Incurable Psychopaths? Marianne Kristiansson, MD Treatment, comprising pharmacotherapy and an educational program based on cognitive behavior therapy, of four psychopathic, criminal men fulfilling the crite- ria for borderline personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder is de- scribed. The diagnoses were made during a forensic psychiatric evaluation. An estimation of the capacity of the central serotonergic system was performed by analysing the platelet monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity. The pharmacotherapy was combined with an educational program involving strategies for developing better impulse control. All four men had earlier been regarded as resistant to conventional therapy. In the present cases, a combined psychosocial and biolog- ical approach seemed to be effective in developing an increased control of im- pulses, leading to improved coping strategies. Controlled studies are needed in order to clarify whether the described treatment program proves beneficial. Psychopathy, as originally described by personality disorder according to DSM- Cleckley,' comprises a set of clinical 111-R.~ characteristics including superficial The possibility of curing or even trying charm, unreliability, untruthfulness, lack to treat criminal psychopathic individuals of remorse or shame, failure to learn by is often looked upon as futile. Most treat- experience, incapacity for love, general ment programs involve various psycho- poverty in major affective relations, and social interventions and little effort has failure to follow any life -
SELF-AFFIRMATION AS an ENVY-REDUCING INTERVENTION I
Running head: SELF-AFFIRMATION AS AN ENVY-REDUCING INTERVENTION i How do you solve a problem like my envy? Self-affirmation as a potential envy-reducing intervention by Darren Christopher Neufeld A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Psychology University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2017 by Darren Christopher Neufeld SELF-AFFIRMATION AS AN ENVY-REDUCING INTERVENTION ii Abstract Envy is a toxic emotion detrimental to one's health and wellbeing (Smith, Combs, & Thielke, 2008), yet few studies have suggested and none have evaluated possible envy-reducing strategies. Self-affirmation has been shown to reduce the impact of self-integrity threats and defensive processing (Cohen & Sherman, 2014), suggesting likely benefit when applied to envy. The present study (N = 209) examined whether completing a brief self-affirmation value essay (Cohen, Aronson, & Steele, 2000) attenuated student participants' self-reported envy feelings and potentially envy-motivated aggressive behaviour (non-cooperation) toward an ostensibly smarter and financially advantaged rival student in the laboratory, relative to a no-affirmation control condition. A one-month follow-up study (N = 169) investigated whether the self-affirmation intervention (vs. control) promoted durable effects in daily life, such as when recalling an intense past-month instance of envy. Potential mediators (self-construal, mood) were examined to illuminate mechanisms underlying self-affirmation effects. Prospective moderators (dispositional envy, self-compassion, vulnerable and grandiose narcissism, self-esteem, entitlement, and sex) were assessed to determine whether individuals most psychologically vulnerable to envy threat derived greater benefit from the intervention. -

Conceptual Challenge to Understand Envy: a Review
Journal of IMS Group Malik Journal of IMS Group Vol. 13, No. 1, January - June 2016, pp. 25-37 Conceptual Challenge to Understand Envy: A Review Sangeeta Malik Abstract Envy is a universal aspect of everyday life. We only reluctantly acknowledge the inhibiting and destructive aspects of this emotion in the workplace. The author has examined the conceptual challenges associated with studying envy. This conceptual paper attempts to clarify the concept of envy for business research from a situational perspective. Thereto, it integrates research on envy from various scientific disciplines i.e., from philosophy, anthropology, evolutionary and social psychology to political thought and introduces a novel, conceptually distinction in the four notions of envy, proper, benign envy, spite, and jealousy. Considering the power and ubiquity of envy, envy implies hostility, we generally view it as a dangerous emotion, capable of disrupting interpersonal relations and triggering hostility, Thereby, it lays the groundwork for further analysis of the phenomenon of envy in business research. Key words: Envy, Jealousy, Conceptualization. INTRODUCTION Envy is an unpleasant, often painful emotion characterizes by feelings of inferiority, hostility, and resentment produced by an awareness of another person or group of persons who enjoy a desired possession (object, social position, attribute, or quality of being; e.g. Parrott, 1991; Parrott & Smith, 1993). Envy, however, creates a drive in people to try and outdo their peers. Envy derives from a mix of emotional insecurity competitiveness, resentment and dissatisfaction with a situation. The resentment comes from a belief that others have something that we ourselves think we should have or are capable of attaining. -

A Researcher Speaks to Ombudsmen About Workplace Bullying LORALE IGH KEASHLY
Journal of the International Ombudsman Association Keashly Some Things You Need to Know but may have been Afraid to Ask: A Researcher Speaks to Ombudsmen about Workplace Bullying LORALE IGH KEASHLY ABSTRACT In the early 1990’s, I became interested in understand- ing persistent and enduring hostility at work. That Workplace bullying is repeated and prolonged hostile interest was spurred by a colleague’s experience at mistreatment of one or more people at work. It has the hands of her director. He yelled and screamed tremendous potential to escalate, drawing in others at her (and others), accusing her of not completing beyond the initial actor-target relationship. Its effects assignments, which she actually had. He lied about can be devastating and widespread individually, her and other subordinates. He would deliberately organizationally and beyond. It is fundamentally a avoid when staff needed his input and then berate systemic phenomenon grounded in the organization’s them for not consulting with him. At other times, he culture. In this article, I identify from my perspective was thoughtful, apologetic, and even constructive. My as a researcher and professional in this area current colleague felt like she was walking on eggshells, never thinking and research findings that may be useful for sure how he would be. Her coworkers had similar ombudsmen in their deliberations and investigations experiences and the group developed ways of coping as well as in their intervention and management of and handling it. For example, his secretary would these hostile behaviors and relationships. warn staff when it was not a good idea to speak with him. -
August 16 SEVEN DEADLY SINS “What Is Envy/Jealousy”
Sermon Delivered….August 16 SEVEN DEADLY SINS “What is Envy/Jealousy” (Proverbs 14:30) OPENING A. ILLUSTRATION 1. Feed off of the bumper video: It hungers for what others have, it’s associated with sickness in the bones, it is called the evil eye; In Othello, Shakespeare called it the Green Eyed Monster. Answer: Envy/Jealousy 2. You’ve heard the term—green with envy? Ever wonder why it’s associated with green? • Because of this verse—green is the color of sickness. • When someone is sick, often they are described as green or yellow in tint. • This particular sin so affects our emotional roots and physical well-being that it can actually make us sick. • The ancient Greeks are probably the source of the color attachment—they thought envy was caused by an over production of bile which turned human skin slightly green. B. SERMON IDEA 1. Envy is defined as a feeling of discontented or a resentful longing aroused by someone else's possessions, qualities, or luck. • Envy and jealousy are related—they are two sides of the same coin and often used interchangeably • Envy is the angry desire to have something someone else has; jealousy is the angry desire to keep what we possess and are afraid someone else wants. • We will use them interchangeably in our study today. 2. The Bible condemns envy and most forms of jealousy • The slightly difficult part is recognizing that jealously is not always sinful o Jealousy is not wrong when it involves an exclusive relationship. o God is jealous for His people and their worship of Him. -

The Influence of Body-Related Envy on Psychophysiological Response of Stress in Young Women
The Influence of Body-Related Envy on Psychophysiological Response of Stress In Young Women by Eva Pila BSc. Kinesiology, McMaster University (2011) A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in Graduate Department of Exercise Sciences UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO ©Eva Pila, 2013 112 THE INFLUENCE OF BODY-RELATED ENVY ON PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSE OF STRESS IN YOUNG WOMEN Master of Science 2013 Eva Pila Department of Exercise Science University of Toronto Abstract Body-related envy is an understudied emotion that may be linked with adverse psychophysiological outcomes such as stress (Smith & Kim, 2007). The purpose of this study was to explore body-related envy and psychophysiological response of stress among young adult females. Participants (N = 47; Mage = 21.6 ± 1.8 yrs) completed a weeklong assessment of phenomenological body-related envy, trait body image constructs and an acute laboratory stress- induction task. Findings support the hypothesis that negative body image constructs predict experiences of body-related envy (R2 = 0.17 - 0.54), and that envy can be reliability assessed using phenomenological ratings. Body-related envy was a significant predictor of psychological appraisals of stress (R2 = 0.24 - 0.31), but the proposed associations with physiological stress were not supported. Considering the adverse health outcomes associated with envy (Smith, et al., 1999) and stress (Anderson, 1998), this study has important implications for women’s psychological and physical health. ii Acknowledgements I wish to thank, first and foremost, my Master’s supervisor, Dr. Catherine Sabiston.

Bornstein Louisiana State University Envy and jealousy may differ in kind or only by degree. In a study of emotion episodes re- called by 291 subjects, two forms of taxometric analysis were used to test between cat- egorical and dimensional models of the two emotions. The two emotions yielded strong convergent evidence of discreteness, and commonly cooccurred. However, although sub- jects rated their episode to contain similar levels of “envy” and “jealousy,” both terms were equally correlated with the presence of envy features and neither term was corre- lated substantially with the presence of jealousy features. -

ENVY: AN ADVERSARIAL REVIEW 2 Abstract The nature of envy has recently been the subject of a heated debate. Some researchers see envy as a complex, yet unitary construct that, despite being hostile in nature, can lead to both hostile and non-hostile reactions. Others offer a dual approach to envy, in which envy’s outcomes reflect two types of envy: benign envy, involving upward motivation, and malicious envy, involving hostility against superior others. We compare these competing conceptualizations of envy in an adversarial (yet collaborative) review.
