  • Does Self-Reported Posttraumatic Growth Translate Into Friend Ratings of Improvement?
    That’s Not What Your Friends Say: Does Self-reported Posttraumatic Growth Translate into Friend Ratings of Improvement? Laura Goorin Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy degree Under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, Columbia University 2011 © 2011 Laura Goorin All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT That’s Not What Your Friends Say: Does Self-reported Posttraumatic Growth Translate into Friend Ratings of Improvement? Laura Goorin Posttraumatic growth (PTG) is a prolific construct under study within both trauma and positive psychology literature alike. Many of these studies rely predominantly on cross-sectional, retrospective self-report data. Recent studies have attempted to subject PTG to more rigorous scientific standards of measurement. In this study, we examined posttraumatic growth measured longitudinally among survivors of the September 11 th , 2001 terrorist attack, in order to explore whether participants’ reports of posttraumatic growth were associated with, supported or contradicted by friend ratings of improvement. In this context, participant-reported posttraumatic growth was consistently linked with friend ratings of deteriorating functioning, providing evidence that posttraumatic growth is undermined by friend ratings. These findings suggest that self-reported PTG may inadequately predict functioning as rated by alternative, more objective measures, and that PTG may reflect negative psychological adjustment.

Help Them Grow. by Jamil Zaki SEPTEMBER 14, 2020 IMAGE SOURCE/GETTY IMAGES The last several months have stacked painful experiences on top of each other: a global pandemic, economic collapse, and new reminders of perennial racial injustice and police violence. This July, rates of depression and anxiety in the U.S. were more than triple those of early 2019. The simple question, “How are you?” has turned into an emotional minefield.

Workplaces are saturated with trauma, too, and leaders are agonizing over how to keep their teams healthy as everyone works remotely and juggles any number of stressors. The science of trauma offers some insight about this moment, and some surprising hope: Instead of asking how we will recover from these painful times, we should ask how we will be changed by them. In many cases, we have an opportunity to change for the better.

  • HOW PEOPLE LEARN to BECOME RESILIENT by Maria Konnikova, FEBRUARY 11, 2016
    MARIA KONNIKOVA HOW PEOPLE LEARN TO BECOME RESILIENT By Maria Konnikova, FEBRUARY 11, 2016 Perception is key to resilience: Do you conceptualize an event as traumatic, or as a chance to learn and grow? Norman Garmezy, a developmental psychologist and clinician at the University of Minnesota, met thousands of children in his four decades of research. But one boy in particular stuck with him. He was nine years old, with an alcoholic mother and an absent father. Each day, he would arrive at school with the exact same sandwich: two slices of bread with nothing in between. At home, there was no other food available, and no one to make any. Even so, Garmezy would later recall, the boy wanted to make sure that “no one would feel pity for him and no one would know the ineptitude of his mother.” Each day, without fail, he would walk in with a smile on his face and a “bread sandwich” tucked into his bag. The boy with the bread sandwich was part of a special group of children. He belonged to a cohort of kids—the first of many— whom Garmezy would go on to identify as succeeding, even excelling, despite incredibly difficult circumstances. These were the children who exhibited a trait Garmezy would later identify as “resilience.” (He is widely credited with being the first to study the concept in an experimental setting.) Over many years, Garmezy would visit schools across the country, focussing on those in economically depressed areas, and follow a standard protocol. He would set up meetings with the principal, along with a school social worker or nurse, and pose the same question: Were there any children whose backgrounds had initially raised red flags—kids who seemed likely to become problem kids—who had instead become, surprisingly, a source of pride? “What I was saying was, ‘Can you identify stressed children who are making it here in your school?’ “ Garmezy said, in a 1999 interview.

  • From Jungian Attitude-Types to a Comprehensive Model of Diseases
    ISSN: 2577 - 8005 Review Article Medical & Clinical Research From Jungian Attitude-Types to a Comprehensive Model of Diseases Marco Balenci Psychoanalyst (AIPA-IAAP), Florence, Italy *Corresponding author Marco Balenci, Florence, Italy. [email protected] American Psychological Association (APA), Washington, D.C.; Italian Association of Analytical Psychology (AIPA), Rome; International Association for Analytical Psychology (IAAP), Zurich Submitted: 03 May 2020; Accepted: 09 May 2020; Published: 18 May 2020 Abstract This review discusses the pair of opposites named introversion and extraversion by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung in its biological foundation and psychosomatic implications. Jung’s typology was the reference for Elida Evans’ book on cancer in 1926, which would be the basis of American psycho-oncology and of a holistic approach to cancer patients. It is shown that introversion and extraversion have been widely used in psychology and psychiatry, even without any reference to Jung. Moreover, these concepts have been used for somatic illnesses. In 1990, independently of each other, George A. Bonanno and Jerome L. Singer of Yale University (USA) and Marco Balenci of Sapienza University of Rome (Italy) conceived two similar comprehensive models of diseases - both in their physical and psychic aspects - based on the psychophysical balance of opposite attitudes. Persistent dualism in Western medicine may explain the lack of development of these models. Actually, this kind of model derives from a holistic view, which was advocated by George L. Engel in the United States, giving relevance to biopsychosocial factors. Despite the increasing discoveries of psychoneuroimmunology and developmental psychobiology can provide a new scientific impetus to the individual-as-a-whole, this perspective still has greater convergence with Eastern medicine Keywords: Diseases Classification, Holistic Medicine, Personal- the schizophrenic is focused only on himself [4].
