Personal Construct Psychology and Psychotherapy: a Bibliography (From the Beginning to 1995) Personal Construct Psychology and Psychotherapy: A Bibliography (From the beginning to 1995) Edited by Gabriele Chiari Personal Construct Psychology and Psychotherapy: A Bibliography Edited by Gabriele Chiari Roma Centro di Psicologia e Psicoterapia Costruttivista via Germanico, 197 - 00192 Roma, Italy 1996 CONTENTS Foreword v 0 Kelly’s Published and Unpublished Works 1 1 Journal Articles 9 2 Books Specifically Devoted to PCP 103 3 Books Widely Based On or Extensively Mentioning PCP 107 4 Book Chapters 113 5 Selected Dissertations and Theses, Proceedings of Meetings and Symposia, Newsletter Papers, Unpublished Manuscripts, and Publications of Limited Circulation 153 6 Book Reviews 165 7 Software 171 Appendix A: PCP Newsletters 177 Appendix B: Works in Languages Other Than English 179 Appendix C: Works by Years 181 Journal Index 183 Author Index 189 Subject Index 201 FOREWORD This book represents the second edition of References in Personal Construct Psychology and Psychotherapy edited in 1990. The first edition was aimed at introducing the “Centro di Psicologia e Psicoterapia Costruttivista” (CPPC) of Rome, whose two seats are directed by Maria Laura Nuzzo and Vincenzo Alfano1, and by Gabriele Chiari2. In the last five years the CPPC trained many personal construct psychotherapists, and a third seat was found in Padua3, thus contributing to the spreading of PCP in Northern Italy. Moreover, a recent law established that psychotherapy can be practised only by psychologists or physicians who have attended a four-years speciality in university post- degree courses or in private centers acknowledged by the University Department. Gabriele Chiari is Director of one of such private centers, the School of Constructivist Cognitive Psychotherapy of the “Centro Studi in Psicoterapia Cognitiva” (CESIPc) of Florence4, and Maria Laura Nuzzo is one of the teachers. Thus, personal construct psychology and psychotherapy have their place among the most recognized approaches in Italy. The first edition of this book had a fairly good success. About one hundred people asked for it, particularly from Europe and Australia. This upgraded, revised and enlarged edition is due to the encouragement of friends and colleagues met in Barcelona in occasion of the International Conference on PCP, and particularly to Beverly Walker who offered to make it available through Internet, so that a larger number of people interested in PCP can easily consult it. Printed copies can be requested to the editor at cost price5. The editor wishes to thank Beverly Walker and all the Wollongong Personal Construct Group for their offer to spread the references via Internet; David Winter for his twofold contribution represented by his suggestions as to the first edition, and his documented analysis of the European contributions to PCP; Jörn W. Scheer for his encouragement and as editor of GRID, a rich source of German references; Maria Laura Nuzzo for her continuous constructive criticisms and suggestions. 5Cost (forwarding charge included): Lit. 40.000; DM 40; UK £ 20; Peseta E 3000; US$ 30; AUS$ 40.

What is psychoanalysis? Psychoanalysis is both a theory of the human mind and a therapeutic practice. It was founded by Sigmund Freud between 1885 and 1939 and continues to be developed by psychoanalysts all over the world. Psychoanalysis has four major areas of application: 1) as a theory of how the mind works 2) as a treatment method for psychic problems 3) as a method of research, and 4) as a way of viewing cultural and social phenomena like literature, art, movies, performances, politics and groups. What is psychoanalytic treatment for? Psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy are for those who feel caught in recurrent psychic problems that impede their potential to experience happiness with their partners, families, and friends as well as success and fulfilment in their work and the normal tasks of everyday life.

Using a qualitative design, 6 participants from mental health agencies in Twin Cities, MN were interviewed. A semi- structured interview of fourteen questions was used based on the literature review to further explore the research question. Findings suggest that there is not one main element that makes DBT effective when using DBT with people with a diagnosis of BPD, but several elements that come together in order to make it an effective treatment approach.

  • Euclidean Distance in the Repertory Grid Technique: a Study of Distances Between Elements in a Sample of Battered Women

University of Seville, Spain In this study, Euclidean distance was used to analyse the construct of male-female elements and those supportive or non-supportive in a sample of battered women (N=25). The main aim was to study the differences in subjective similarity (Euclidean distance) according to different structural indexes in the repertory grid. The sample was divided into two groups using the mean as the criterion for dichotomizing groups as high-low. Symptomatology was also used as a factor for distributing the sample. Between-group differences were calculated with the Student’s-t. Women in the high-polarization group considered themselves different from their partner and also from other aggressive men. Women in the low-intensity group considered themselves and their partners as different from cooperative-helpful men.

  • 1 from Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy to the Four Defining Characteristics of Self-Transcendence (ST) Paul T. P. Wong Introductio
    1 From Viktor Frankl’s Logotherapy to the Four Defining Characteristics of Self-Transcendence (ST) Paul T. P. Wong Introduction The present paper continues my earlier presentation on self-transcendence (ST) as a pathway to meaning, virtue, and happiness (Wong, 2016), in which I introduced Viktor Frankl’s (1985) two-factor theory of ST. Here, the same topic of ST is expanded by first providing the basic assumptions of logotherapy, then arguing the need for objective standards for meaning, and finally elaborating the defining characteristics of ST. To begin, here is a common-sense observation—no one can remain at the same spot for life for a variety of reasons, such as developmental and environmental changes, but most importantly because people dream of a better life and want to move to a preferred destination where they can find happiness and fulfillment. As a psychologist, I am interested in finding out (a) which destination people choose and (b) how they plan to get there successfully. In a free society that offers many opportunities for individuals, there are almost endless options regarding both (a) and (b). The reality is that not all purposes in life are equal. Some life goals are misguided, such as wanting to get rich by any means, including unethical and illegal ones, because ultimately, such choices could be self-defeating—these end values might not only fail to fill their hearts with happiness, but might also ruin their relationships and careers. The question, then, is: What kind of choices will have the greatest likelihood of resulting in a good life that not only benefits the individual but also society? My research has led me to hypothesize that the path of ST is most likely to result in such a good life.

  • A Study of Impact of Learners' Personal Constructs on Reading
    International Journal on Studies in English Language and Literature (IJSELL) Volume 3, Issue 2, February 2015, PP 87-109 ISSN 2347-3126 (Print) & ISSN 2347-3134 (Online) www.arcjournals.org A Study of Impact of Learners’ Personal Constructs on Reading Comprehension through Induction-Deduction Strategies Dr. Mohammad Zohrabi, Dr. Farahman Farrokhi English Department Faculty of Persian Literature and Foreign Languages University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran Monir Alizade Aras International Campus University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran Abstract: This study is an attempt to investigate the role of personal constructs through Induction- Deduction strategies on Iranian EFL learners' reading comprehension. People cannot understand the world except through their own constructs. Therefore, in order to understand a person's response to events, we have to understand the constructs through which he or she has perceived those events. Also the intended meaning is communicatively successful only if the speaker’s illocutionary intention is recognized by the hearer. These intentions are essentially communicative because the fulfillment of illocutionary intentions consists in hearer’s understanding. Not only are such intentions reflexive, their fulfillment consists in their recognition. The purpose of this study was to inspect the Iranian English learners to see how individuals vary in the perception of reading texts from their personal constructs point of view. It also serves to explain why individuals have different kinds of perception. Therefore, a quantitative approach was used to carry out this study. The assessment program involved Oxford Placement Test (OPT), Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), Comprehension Reading Test (CRT) and Repertory Grid Technique (RGT) which were administered to 60 upper-intermediate EFL learners.

  • Marriage and Family Therapy Core Competencies© December, 2004
    112 South Alfred Street Alexandria, VA 22314 Telephone: (703) 838-9808 Fax: (703) 838-9805 Website: www.aamft.org Marriage and Family Therapy Core Competencies© December, 2004 The marriage and family therapy (MFT) core competencies were developed through a collaborative effort of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) and interested stakeholders. In addition to defining the domains of knowledge and requisite skills in each domain that comprise the practice of marriage and family therapy, the ultimate goal of the core competencies is to improve the quality of services delivered by marriage and family therapists (MFTs). Consequently, the competencies described herein represent the minimum that MFTs licensed to practice independently must possess. Creating competencies for MFTs and improving the quality of mental health services was considered in the context of the broader behavioral health system. The AAMFT relied on three important reports to provide the framework within which the competencies would be developed: Mental Health: A Report of the Surgeon General; the President’s New Freedom Commission on Mental Health’s Achieving the Promise: Transforming Mental Health Care in America; and the Institute of Medicine’s Crossing the Quality Chasm. The AAMFT mapped the competencies to critical elements of these reports, including IOM’s 6 Core Values that are seen as the foundation for a better health care system: 1) Safe, 2) Person- Centered, 3) Efficient, 4) Effective, 5) Timely, and 6) Equitable. The committee also considered how social, political, historical, and economic forces affect individual and relational problems and decisions about seeking and obtaining treatment. The core competencies were developed for educators, trainers, regulators, researchers, policymakers, and the public.

  • Bridging the Cross-Cultural Gap with Personal Construct Repertory Grids
    BRIDGING THE CROSS-CULTURAL GAP WITH PERSONAL CONSTRUCT REPERTORY GRIDS By GREGORY STUART HADLEY A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of English of The University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS TEFL/TESL This dissertation consists of 14,302 words School of English Centre for English Language Studies University of Birmingham Westmere, Edgbaston Birmingham B15 2TT England December 1996 ABSTRACT Personal Construct Repertory Grids, often referred to as "rep grids," have a long and distinguished history as a research instrument in psychological, educational and cross- cultural studies. However, they have seen only limited use in EFL-based research. This paper presents the background, theory and terminology associated with Repertory Grids. The research tradition, reliability and validity of repertory grids will also be discussed. For EFL teachers unfamiliar with the procedure, a step-by-step description is provided on one way to use repertory grids for cross-cultural research in the second language classroom. The remainder of this paper covers the first documented use of repertory grids in a Japanese EFL setting. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many thanks to the following: Dr. Chris Evans, Senior Lecturer in Psychiatry at the University of London and expert in the field of PCP, for his invaluable help with analyzing the data for this study.

  • A Sentence Completion Task for Eliciting Personal Constructs in Specific Domains
    A Sentence Completion Task for Eliciting Personal Constructs in Specific Domains A SENTENCE COMPLETION TASK FOR ELICITING PERSONAL CONSTRUCTS IN SPECIFIC DOMAINS James W. Grice1, Edward Burkley III2, Melissa Burkley2, Sara Wright3, Jennifer Slaby4 1 Oklahoma State University , 2University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, 3University of Iowa, 4Nevada Missouri A novel sentence completion task was developed to assess how individuals view themselves and others in differ- ent domains of experience. This task was incorp orated into a repertory grid and evaluated in two studies. In the first study, ratings obtained from the grid procedure were shown to be internally consistent and reliable over time in two distinct domains of experience: mathematics and athletics. Moreover, ratings for oneself in the grids for each domain were found to be highly correlated with corresponding subscale scores from a popular multidi- mensional measure of self-concept. In the second study, the repertory grid ratings were again shown to be inter- nally consistent and to yield information that was truly distinct across the domains of mathematics and athletics. Positive ratings for oneself in the grids were again shown to correlate highly with corresponding subscale scores from the same multidimensional measure of self-concept. The theoretical and methodological implications of these results and new procedures were discussed. Keywords: sentence completion, self-concept, idiographic INTRODUCTION studying how individuals construe themselves and their surroundings.
