Psycho-Babble Psycho-Babble April 2016 IN THIS ISSUE Department Events | Department Information | Alumni News | Internship & Job Notices Chair Talk from Joan Wow, it’s April already! As always, we have an engaging and busy month ahead in the psychology department. A highlight of April each year is the annual Spring Dinner, which comes very early this year: Monday, April 4th (5:30­6:30 p.m. in the Smail Gallery). All are welcome, even if you’ve only taken one psychology course (heck, even if you’ve never taken a psychology course but are interested in connecting with the department). I can pretty much promise that the food will be delicious and the company will be fun, and that we’ll offer prizes for trivia quiz and a surprise “matching challenge” contest. Also coming up in April: a Career Night with psychology department alum! On Tuesday evening, April 12th, a group of recent and not­so­recent alum who work in the Twin Cities will return to campus and talk about how they got their jobs, what they do for work and how it connects to their psychology majors, and answer your questions. Dinner will be served, please plan to attend if you can (be on the lookout for flyers with more information). April is also registration time, so those of you who aren’t graduating this spring can look forward to picking your classes for next semester. We will have several visitors in the department next year, including one full­time person. I don’t have a signed contract for her yet so I will tell you about her, and the other visitors who will be teaching for us in the fall, very soon. In the meantime, rest assured that we have some really exciting new advanced classes in line for the fall. Finally, I would like to extend my congratulations to the recipients of our various departmental awards. We have so many amazing students (yes, that includes you, the person who is reading this issue of PsychoBabble right now!) and it is always a challenge to pick among you for these departmental honors. Please see below for this year’s awardees, and join me in congratulating them. They will be recognized at the Spring Dinner. Associate Dean of the Faculty and Psychology Professor Kendrick Brown to Leave Macalester The Psychology Department was both thrilled and devastated to learn of Kendrick Brown’s anticipated move to become Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Redlands in California. Although all of you current students know him primarily as an administrator, many of you were also lucky enough to have taken his Understanding and Confronting Racism course. We will miss him terribly, and wish him all the best. Below is some information from the official announcement of his departure. Brown came to Macalester in 1998 as tenure­track member of the Psychology Department. He focused on how individuals negotiate systematic biases, in particular racism, to establish or maintain connections within and between social status groups. Since 2009, he has been Associate Dean of the Faculty, and as such, supervised the Assessment Office and various assessment activities at Macalester, oversaw the creation of faculty personnel review files, and solicited applications from students and faculty wishing to work closely during the summer on a scholarly project supported by endowed and external funds. “I am going to miss Macalester, my colleagues and friends, and all the students I’ve come to know over the past 18 years,” said Brown. “It was not an easy decision for me to leave Macalester, but I simply could not pass up the opportunity at The University of Redlands.” Psych Leader Nominations We are eager for nominations for next year’s psych club leaders. Leaders play an incredibly important role in the department. They build community in the department by helping out with a variety of events, including lunches, panels, volunteer experiences, guest lecturers, game nights, and Friday Socials. Ideally, leaders generate ideas for new activities that other students would find engaging and informative, and they inspire other students to get involved in the life of the department. We expect that serving as a Psych Club leader will typically take about 1 ­ 2 hours a week, although your time commitment will vary from week to week. Please consider nominating yourself or someone else to this important role. Please send names to Jaine Strauss by Monday, April 25th. We will contact all students who are nominated to make sure they’re interested in the commitment. The decision about next year’s psych leaders is made by faculty and staff. 2016­17 leaders will be announced in the May Psycho­Babble. Joan Ostrove recipient of major award! Joan is the recipient of the 2016 Walter D. Mink Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Award given by the Minnesota Psychological Association.

One of her students stated, "I always feel like I'm learning new ways to think about the world every time I go to class," and a second student said, "she balanced both holding high expectations for and being supportive of her students."

By Meagan Cline One of the most controversial topics in the criminal justice industry is the "insanity defense" and its applicability or validity in prosecuting criminal cases. The purpose of this assignment is to identify and discuss psychopathology and crime causation in terms of mental illness, research, and the insanity defense. For this evaluation, information was gathered from scholarly research, textbooks, dictionaries, and published literature. These sources were then carefully reviewed and applied to the evaluation in a concise, yet informative, manner. This assignment also addresses some of the key terms in psychopathology and crime causation, including various theories, definitions, and less commonly known relevant factors influencing claims of mental instability or insanity.

  • Critical Psychology in the Philippines
    CRITICAL PSYCHOLOGY IN THE PHILIPPINES There are many pathological features of Philippine culture that are either caused or exacerbated by the debilitating effects of neocolonial dynamics. These effects include endemic poverty, endemic corruption, diasporic deployment of Filipino labor, trafficking of women and children, exploitation and destruction of indigenous cultures, the paradoxical increase in nationalism coexisting with the desire to leave the Philippines, the consumption of cosmetic bleaching, feelings of failure and learned helplessness, lack of self-fulfillment, feelings of inferiority not only among the urban, rural, and mountain poor, but also within Christian and Moslem cultures as well, Postcolonial theory analyzes the nature of these dynamics and explores they ways in which they can be changed. For example, Bhabha (2004), an Indian with an Oxford education, suggests that multicultural experience, especially diasporic, can generate insight into such neocolonial oppression and thus create a coherence to the seeds of discontent and destabilization that enable cultural change. The Katipunan, which may have launched the first successful revolution based on Marxist theory, was inspired in large measure from Rizal’s exposure to European universities. “. it is from those who have suffered the sentence of history— subjugation, domination, diaspora, displacement—that we learn our most enduring lessons for living and thinking.” (Bhabha, 2004, p. 246.) Fannon, a Martinique expatriate educated in France, as a psychiatrist witnessed psychological trauma in French Algiers. After WWII he participated in the Algerian revolution which won independence in 1962. He applied concepts from psychoanalytic theory to the understanding of colonial culture. He combined psychology and politics, effectively viewing them an integrated system.

    Critical and Collective Psychologies w/ Leah McKown A Tale of Two Psychologies 2.0 Critical Psychology: a school of thought which fundamentally rejects the basic tenets of “mainstream psychology” Collective Psychology: a school of thought which emphasizes the psychological faculties of units beyond the individual Critical Psychology “Mainstream Psychology”: schools of thought which are most commonly taught in university settings and practiced in clinical settings (Fox, 2009, p.3); think cognitive-behavioral and biological models Why does critical psychology reject “mainstream psychology”? Critical Psychology ANSWER: 1 by focusing on the individual rather than the group or larger society, mainstream psychology overemphasizes individualistic values, hinders the attainment of mutuality and community, and strengthens unjust institutions; 2 mainstream psychology’s underlying assumptions and institutional allegiances disproportionately hurt members of powerless and marginalized groups by facilitating inequality and oppression; and 3 these unacceptable outcomes occur regardless of psychologists’ individual or collective intentions to the contrary (Fox, 2009, p. 5) Critical Psychology ● Heavily influenced by the Frankfurt School and Critical Theory, a German sociological program based on Marxist visions of justice ● Originated in 1970s Germany with Klaus Holzkamp ● Associated with various social movements and platforms Erich Fromm & The Sane Society ● Born in Frankfurt, Germany in 1900 ● Fled Germany after the Nazis rose to power ● Lived in Switzerland,

  • The Challenge of Being a Critical Psychologist in Times of Crisis: an Example from Austria1
    The challenge of being a critical psychologist in times of crisis: An example from Austria1 Reinhilde Trinks Austrian Gesellschaft kritischer Psychologen Andrea Birbaumer University of Technology, Vienna Anna Keclik University of Vienna Abstract The article bases on the resuming papers of two workshop conferences held by GkPP (Gesellschaft kritischer Psychologen und Psychologinnen = Austrian Society of Critical Psychologists - in August 2009 and August 2010), which aimed to analyze the role and the targets of critical psychology as well as critical psychologist practitioners towards current challenges in social and health politics and practice due to globalized economic, cultural and social crises. After an overview of recent discussions in Austria's current Health and Social Politics as well as Educational Politics the paper focuses on the role of psychology/psychologists in different settings (with a focus on Health and Social System, including professional regulations if existing) and their position in relation to other health and social professionals. The following discussions include: - the (re)development and 're-sharpening' of basic positions and attitudes of CP towards global crisis and their contributions to a critical discussion of current approaches in 'Mainstream Psychology/ies' - well-known and new contradictions CP has to face - feminist vs. gender debates - what is needed in science and practical work to stay 'critical' - the effects of crisis on the self-esteem as critical psychologists, concerning the systematically increasing number of (young, well-trained and female) colleagues in precarious jobs - which consequences have to be drawn for a critical professionals' association concerning its concepts for profession politics and close with an outlook to the estimated developments within the next years and suggestions for analytical and practical work to be done in critical psychology.

In a first step, the development of critical psychologies is located in current discussions on the production of knowledge, and three different typical approaches and major steps toward situated critique as a practice of mutual recognition are delineated. This shift, it is argued, has led to a historically new relevance of critique, and two basic analytical elements of critical research are introduced: Everyday conflictuality as the initiating moment of critique as well as the importance of theory for critical inquiry. On this basis a variety of analytic strategies and concepts are presented which inform Critical Psychology from the Standpoint of the Subject and suggest a constituent move from partial perspectives toward situated generalization.

Such clinicians are considered the "Family Psychiatrist." Psychological characteristics of such families who cannot be referred to other clinicians are articulated. The literature on psychotherapy in small rural communities is reviewed as having relevance to define the ethical issues that arise in such treatments. These issues include: maintaining therapeutic neutrality; creating functional, flexible, and appropriate boundaries; maintaining confidentiality; promoting patient autonomy and growth; as well as managing conflicts of interest. Relevant countertransference issues are examined.

  • The Puritan Alternative to Secular Psychology David P
    COUNSELING THE DEPRESSED PERSON: THE PURITAN ALTERNATIVE TO SECULAR PSYCHOLOGY by David P. Herding A Thesis Submitted to the faculty in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Religion at Reformed Theological Seminary Charlotte, North Carolina December 2010 i Accepted: ____________________________________ Andrew J. Peterson, Ph.D. Dissertation Advisor ____________________________________ Second Reader ____________________________________ Third Reader ii ABSTRACT Counseling Chronically Depressed People: The Puritan Alternative to Secular Psychology David P. Herding While there is an abundance of existing literature written on the subject of counseling depressed people from both secular psychological and religious perspectives, the views and methods of the Puritans on the subject are largely unknown, untapped and unapplied among contemporary Christians. Even though depressed moods and traits have been in existence since the fall of mankind, many secular psychologists and Christian counselors still do not rightly understand its origins, causes and cures and are too quick to medicate the problem or resort to self-help methods. But the ancient Biblical principles documented and applied by the Puritans for the diagnosis and cure of depression have proven to be what sufferers really need and desire. Therefore, the general intent is to put the topic of counseling of the depressed to the test by examining the historical writings and counsel of Puritan writers against that of their current counterparts, namely the secular psychological methods, and how these modern methods fall short in dealing with a syndrome of depression. In particular, the Puritan foundational theories of diagnosing a pattern of depression and the theological themes they used for cures of such situations are examined and thoroughly documented.
