We expect around 200 participants from all over Europe and other continents – the submitters and moderators alone represent 19 different countries. The scientific program includes 24 panels, 8 paper sessions and a poster session (with a total of 40 posters). Finally, 6 strucured discussion sessions covering fields ranging from longitudinal data analysis in psychotherapy research to training issues complete the program. The meeting will start on Thursday evening at 18:00 with a plenary lecture by Vittorio Lingiardi of the Sapienza University of Rome: "The transcript-based assessment of therapeutic alliance ruptures and resolutions in psychotherapy". After his speech, the welcome reception will be held at the conference center, the medieval Castel Mareccio / Schloss Maretsch, a beautiful historic site located in the city of Bolzano. On Saturday evening, the meeting will end with a second plenary by Jacques Barber (University of Pennsylvania), international SPR's recent president. The banquet will be arranged on Friday in the inner court of the castle. If you are a European SPR member, please do not miss the Business Meeting of our chapter on Saturday noon. On behalf of the local organizing committee and the program council we wish to thank all colleagues for their submissions and contributions to what we are sure will be a stimulating and successful conference.

The purpose of this study was to provide initial data on the validation of the Childhood Personality Assessment Q-Sort (CPAP-Q), a clinician report instrument that can be employed to evaluate children’s personalities and address the gap in the field of emerging personality in children classification. Method: A sample of 135 clinicians completed the CPAP-Q to assess the personality features of 135 children (ages 4–11) who had been in their care between two and 12 months. The clinicians completed a clinical questionnaire to collect information on them, the children, and their families, as well as the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), to evaluate Citation: Fortunato, A.; Tanzilli, A.; the children’s behavioral problems and social competencies.

  • Assessing Suicidal Risk with the Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual, 2Nd Ed
    Original article JOURNAL OF PSYCHOPATHOLOGY 2019;25:132-138 Personality, mental functioning, V. Lingiardi1, G. Di Cicilia1,T. Boldrini1,2 and symptoms: assessing suicidal risk 1 Department of Dynamic and Clinical Psychology, Faculty of Medicine with the Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual, and Psychology, Sapienza University of Rome, Italy; 2 Department nd 2 ed. (PDM-2) of Developmental Psychology and Socialization, University of Padua, Italy Summary Comprehensive and careful diagnostic assessment is a crucial aspect of the clinical manage- ment of suicidal patients. The new edition of the Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual (PDM-2; Lingiardi & McWilliams, 2017) adds a needed perspective on symptom patterns depicted in existing taxonomies, enabling clinicians to describe and categorize personality patterns, related social and emotional capacities, unique profiles of mental functioning, and subjective experiences of symptoms. This paper provides an overview of the PDM-2, focusing on its diagnostic approach to evaluating patients presenting suicidal intention and behaviors. First, the basic premises of the PDM-2, including its rationale and structure, are briefly discussed. Second, following the multiaxial organization of this diagnostic system, the features and main innovations that can guide clinicians in their assessment and clinical management of suicidal risk are examined. Key words Suicide • Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual • Diagnosis • Assessment Introduction Clinicians routinely investigate the presence of suicidal ideation, suicidal intention, a history of such ideation and intention, and the nature and se- verity of any suicide attempts in all patients they encounter in their prac- tice. Suicide is the second leading cause of death among persons aged 15 to 29, and almost 800,000 people die by suicide worldwide, each year 1.

Bornstein, PhD Francesco Gazzillo, PhD Adelphi University Sapienza University of Rome Robert M. Gordon, PhD Allentown, Pennsylvania This article reviews the development of the second edition of the Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual, the PDM-2. We begin by placing the PDM in historical context, describing the structure and goals of the first edition of the manual, and reviewing some initial responses to the PDM within the professional community. We then outline 5 guiding principles intended to maximize the clinical utility and heuristic value of PDM-2, and we delineate strategies for implementing these principles throughout the revision process. Following a discussion of 2 PDM- derived clinical tools—the Psychodiagnostic Chart and Psychodynamic Diagnostic Prototypes, we review initial research findings documenting the reliability, validity, and clinical value of these 2 measures. Finally, we discuss changes proposed for implementation in PDM-2 and the potential for an updated version of the manual to enhance clinical practice and research during the coming years. Keywords: PDM, DSM, diagnosis, personality, PDM-2-derived clinical tools The first edition of the Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual (PDM Task Force, 2006) was This document is copyrighted by the American Psychological Association or one of its allied publishers. published during a critical era of change in mental nosology.

    Psychoanalytic Psychology © 2010 American Psychological Association 2010, Vol. 27, No. 2, 190–218 0736-9735/10/$12.00 DOI: 10.1037/a0019418 AN EMPIRICALLY SUPPORTED PSYCHOANALYSIS The Case of Giovanna Vittorio Lingiardi, MD and Sherwood Waldron Jr., MD Francesco Gazzillo, PhD New York Psychoanalytic Institute and Sapienza University of Rome Mt. Sinai School of Medicine Psychoanalysts have long relied on the case study method to support the validity of their theoretical hypotheses and clinical techniques and the efficacy of their treatments. However, limitations of the case study method have become in- creasingly salient as the medical-scientific community and policymakers have increasingly emphasized the need for empirical data. This article describes the progression of an analysis from the perspective of both the treating analyst and an independent research team using empirical methods to study verbatim session transcripts. Empirical measures include the Shedler-Westen Assessment Procedure-200 (Westen & Shedler, 1999a, b; Shedler & Westen, 2006), the Defense Mechanism Rating Scale (Perry, 1990a) and the Analytic Process Scales (Waldron, Scharf, Crouse, Firestein, & Burton, 2004, and Waldron, Scharf, Hurst, et al., 2004). The article illustrates one way in which clinical and empirical methods can complement each other synergistically and lead to a deeper and more precise understanding of analytic process and psychological change. Keywords: case study, personality assessment, psychoanalytic process, defense mechanisms, therapeutic factors As the history of science attests (and, as recently emphasized by the American Psychological Association in their guidelines defining “evidence”), scientific evidence includes and often Vittorio Lingiardi, MD, and Francesco Gazzillo, PhD, Faculty of Psychology I, Sapienza University of Rome; Sherwood Waldron Jr., MD, Faculty of the New York Psychoanalytic Institute and Mt.

Gordon Nancy McWilliams Allentown, Pennsylvania Graduate School for Applied and Professional Psychology, Rutgers University The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between level of personality organization and type of personality disorder as assessed with the categories in the Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual (PDM; PDM Task Force, 2006) and the emotional responses of treating clinicians. We asked 148 Italian clinicians to assess 1 of their adult patients in treatment for personality disorders with the Psychodiag- nostic Chart (PDC; Gordon & Bornstein, 2012) and the Personality Diagnostic Prototype (PDP; Gazzillo, Lingiardi, & Del Corno, 2012) and to complete the Therapist Response Questionnaire (TRQ; Betan, Heim, Zittel-Conklin, & Westen, 2005). The patients’ level of overall personality pathology was positively associated with helpless and overwhelmed responses in clinicians and negatively associated with positive emotional responses.

  • Deconstructing the Therapeutic Relationship in Order to Reconstruct It1 by Francesco De Bei∗, Antonello Colli∗∗ E Vittorio Lingiardi∗∗∗
    Deconstructing the therapeutic relationship in order to reconstruct it1 by Francesco De Bei∗, Antonello Colli∗∗ e Vittorio Lingiardi∗∗∗ In the last ten years many researchers have set out to investigate the existence of a common factor that is transversal to various treatment models, in order to explain most of the effectiveness of the psychotherapies. The relationship, or more precisely that aspect of the patient-therapist relationship that goes by the name “therapeutic alliance”, has been identified as this common factor (Horvath & Symonds, 1991; Horvath & Bedi, 2002; Lingiardi, 2002; Martin, Garske, & Davis, 2000). Although the concept of therapeutic alliance has a relatively short history (Zetzel, 1958), its roots lie in the psychoanalytic tradition (Freud, 1912; Sterba, 1934) and it was in the 1970s that it started its shift into the field of empirical research. After an initial period (1912-1965) of psychoanalytic theorizations (starting with the “irreprehensible positive transference” of Freud 1912) and a second period of empirical research with the construction of ad hoc instruments and studies aimed at the examination of the relation between alliance and outcome (1970-2000), came a third phase that can be called “of clinical research”, characterized by the study of the relational dynamics of the alliance, in particular the episodes of disruption and repair, and of their subjective components2. Today’s interest in the clinical dynamics associated with the quality of the therapeutic relationship springs from the development of thinking on the beneficial effects “created” by the therapist, from the re-examination of the concept of alliance and the formulation of the concept of “collaborative interaction”.
