La riforma sancisce la fine delle facoltà di psicologia autonome e nella più grande università italiana, la Sapienza di Roma, la facoltà di psicologia sarà sostituita dalla Facoltà di Medicina e Psicologia, risultato del recente accorpamento deciso dallo Statuto Frati che precede l’attuazione del decreto 1905 approvato il 30/12/2010. Molti colleghi hanno gridato allo scandalo, come se questo significasse la scomparsa della Psicologia e della sua autonomia, altri hanno considerato queste trasformazioni come ne- cessarie misure di razionalizzazione delle risorse a disposizione degli Atenei; altri ancora ritengono che sia un naturale approdo della psicologia, considerando che l’esercizio della professione di psicologo è a tutti gli effetti considerata attività sanitaria che rientra in un campo complementare alla medicina. Forse non tutti ricordano che dobbiamo la nascita della psicologia in Italia a un medico psichiatra docente alla Sapienza di Roma, Sante De Sanctis (Parrano 1862 – Roma 1935), il quale, da psicologo clinico, svolgeva studi sulla psicopatologia umana a partire dalla critica ai modelli organicistici ed era un profondo assertore dell’approccio psicologico all’”alienato”. De Sanctis sosteneva che la cura del disturbo mentale potesse essere possibile solo a partire dalla conoscenza delle strutture psicologiche della personalità grazie a rigorose metodiche sia cliniche sia sperimentali. Nel 1910 pubblica un volume interamente dedicato alla metodologia psicologica nell’analisi della salute mentale dal titolo Patologia e profilassi mentale e descrive in modo ampio e dettagliato i vari procedimenti di profilassi, medici e psicologici, utili alla prevenzione della patologia mentale. De Sanctis teorizza con sessant’anni di anticipo una nuova prassi nella cura della salute mentale che, a partire dal 1969, inseriva negli ospedali psichiatrici prima e nei servizi di salute mentale poi la figura professionale dello psicologo.O ggi è di fatto patrimonio acquisito nella prevenzione e nella cura della malattia mentale la doppia professionalità psichiatrica e psicologica. In questo numero troverete i moduli per ottenere il Certificato EuroPsy che sarà concesso sulla base dei requisiti indicati.

Beyond that, the Institute enabled my research project by granting me a PhD scholarship and providing a fruitful work environment, while the well-organized MPIWG library offered me the opportunity to assemble the majority of the material for this book. I am obliged to Professor Dr. Mitchell Ash for his commentaries and insights from his vast knowledge in the history of psychology, as well as for being part of my PhD committee de- spite the geographical distance. I would like to also thank Dr. Alexandre Métraux for advising me on questions related to Lewin’s philosophy of science. Moreover, I am highly indebted to Dr. Massimilano Badino for his scholarly advice, but even more so for his friendship and moral support whenever I needed it. In addition to that, he en- couraged and prepared me to present my work in a variety of international conferences.

  • Еkaterina Zavershneva René Van Der Veer Editors a Selection
    Perspectives in Cultural-Historical Research 2 Еkaterina Zavershneva René van der Veer Editors Vygotsky’s Notebooks A Selection Perspectives in Cultural-Historical Research Volume 2 Series editors Marilyn Fleer, Peninsula Campus, Monash University, Frankston, Victoria, Australia Fernando González Rey, Department of Psychology, University of Brasilia, Brasília -DF, Brazil Elena Kravtsova, Russian State University for the Humanities, Moscow, Russia Nikolai Veresov, Faculty of Education, Monash University, Frankston, Australia There is growing interest in the work of LS Vygotsky internationally, but also in finding new ways and perspectives for advancing cultural-historical theory for solving contemporary problems. Although Vygotsky has become one of the most influential scholars in education and psychology today, there is still a need for serious studies of his work because so much remains unexamined. The books in this series draw on the collected works of Vygotsky as a primary source of authority. They go beyond secondary sources and discuss Vygotsky’s original ideas in the context of a system of concepts or through the elaboration and theorisation of research findings so that contemporary problems can be addressed in new ways. This series collectively brings together under one umbrella a more equal representation of works from scholars across both the Northern and Southern continents. In the context of a large volume of contributions to cultural-historical theorisation and the empirical work from North America, there is an urgent need for

    A Teaching Guide for History of Psychology www.feministvoices.com 1 Psychology’s Feminist Voices in the Classroom A Teaching Guide for the History of Psychology Instructor Compiled by Jennifer Bazar, Elissa Rodkey, and Jacy Young One of the goals of Psychology’s Feminist Voices is to serve as a teaching resource. To facilitate the process of incorporating PFV into the History of Psychology course, we have created this document. Below you will find two primary sections: (1) Lectures and (2) Assignments. (1) Lectures: In this section you will find subject headings of topics often covered in History of Psychology courses. Under each heading, we have provided an example of the relevant career, research, and/or life experiences of a woman featured on the Psychology’s Feminist Voices site that would augment a lecture on that particular topic. Below this description is a list of additional women whose histories would be well-suited to lectures on that topic. (2) Assignments: In this section you will find several suggestions for assignments that draw on the material and content available on Psychology’s Feminist Voices that you can use in your History of Psychology course. The material in this guide is intended only as a suggestion and should not be read as a “complete” list of all the ways Psychology’s Feminist Voices could be used in your courses. We would love to hear all of the different ideas you think of for how to include the site in your classroom - please share you thoughts with us by emailing Alexandra Rutherford, our project coordinator,

  • The First Generation of Japanese Women Psychologists
    genealogy Article The First Generation of Japanese Women Psychologists Miki Takasuna School of Social and Human Sciences, Tokyo International University, Kawagoe 305-1198, Japan; [email protected] Received: 14 April 2020; Accepted: 17 May 2020; Published: 21 May 2020 Abstract: The purpose of this study was to characterize the first Japanese women psychologists, pre-WWII, as identified by their published work in psychological journals and by their conference presentations at meetings of the Japanese Psychological Association. From my archival survey, I collected data on the education levels, degrees, marital status, and careers of eight women. Three earned PhDs from US universities; five earned BAs from national public universities. All eight psychologists found teaching jobs at colleges. As the centenary of the JPA draws near, this work calls attention for the need to integrate women into the pre-WWII history of psychology when the school system and matriculation prerequisites for women differed from men. Keywords: women psychologists before WWII; first generation of women psychologists; integration form; history of psychology in Japan 1. Introduction The modernization of the Japanese social system came about rapidly in the late 1860s when the new Meiji government endeavored to import various knowledge and techniques from Western countries. In 1877, the Ministry of Education (established in 1871) approved Tokyo University as the first national university in Japan. Even then, from the beginning of a student’s college education, psychology was taught as a subject, though the first psychology laboratory was not founded until 1903 at Tokyo Imperial University1. By 1927, just 50 years after the founding of Tokyo University, the Japanese Psychological Association (JPA) was established as the first Japanese society for psychology.

  • Zur Diskussion Der Experimente Von Tamara Dembo Rene Van Der Veer & Helmut E
    Berliner Gestaltpsychologie in Aktion: Zur Diskussion der Experimente von Tamara Dembo Rene van der Veer & Helmut E. Lück Zusammenfassung: In diesem Beitrag werden Hintergründe zu dem nachstehend abgedruckten „ Vortrag von Fräulein Dembo über ihre Ver- suche, mit anschließenden Fragen" behandelt. Zunächst wird die Mitschrift des Vortrags beschrieben, dann wird kurz auf die Biographie von Dembo eingegangen, insbesondere wird die Teilnehmerschaft der Diskussion beschrieben, zu der Psychologen wie Wertheimer, Lewin, und einige beteiligte Versuchspersonen, darunter Gottschaldt, Lipmann und von Allesch, gehörten. Umgangsformen im Berliner Institut Mitte der zwanziger Jahre sind erkennbar. Besondere Beachtung findet der Sachverhalt, dass Dembo über drei Versuchsreihen referiert, von denen nur zwei Aufnahme in ihre Dissertation fanden. Die dritte, in der die Vpn keinerlei Instruktion erhielten, ist jedoch unter methodologischen und wissenschaftsgeschichtlichen Gesichtspunkten von Interesse, da sie Fragen zur Sozialpsychologie des psychologischen Experiments vorweg- nimmt. Abstract: In this contribution we give the background of the "Vortrag von Fräulein Dembo über ihre Versuche, mit anschließenden Fragen" published below. First, the protocol of the meeting is discussed and a concise biography of Dembo is given. Subsequently, the participants in the discussion, among whom many served as experimental subjects (e.g. Gottschaldt, Lipmann, and von Allesch) and others supervised the inves- tigation (Wertheimer, Lewin) are introduced. From the minutes of the meeting the way students and staff interacted at the Berlin Institute in the 1920s becomes apparent. Special attention is paid to the fact that Dembo referred to three experiments of which only two were included in her dissertation. However, with hindsight, this third experiment, in which subjects received no instruction at all, was especially interesting from the viewpoint of experimental methodology and from the viewpoint of the history of science.

  • Some Problems in Rehabilitation As Seen by a Lewinian
    Journal of Social Issues, Vol. 38, No. I, 1982, pp. 131-139 Some Problems in Rehabilitation as Seen by a Lewinian Tamara Dembo Clark University I will talk about matters rooted in Kurt Lewin’s early work with his students up to the time of his interest in small group research. During the ~O’S,I was his student in Germany, and took my Ph.D. with him. My thesis dealt with anger in frustration situations. Later, I was Lewin’s assistant during his stay at Cornell and at the University of Iowa, until he arranged to move to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Ten days before he died, we were discussing psychological matters in Washington. I am a Lewinian in my psychological thinking, emphasizing the structural characteristics of psychological occurrences. When Lewin once asked me, “DO you believe that topological properties actually exist in life?”, I simply said “Yes.” I felt then, as now, that much in life is spatial and structural. Working with Lewin was a cooperative effort. In solving problems, the emphasis was on work rather than on individual performers. This was characteristic of Lewin’s “Quase1strippe”-the weekly meeting with his graduate students that began in Berlin. It characterized his daily-and daylong-meetings with his thesis students, as well as the frequent meetings of Fritz and Grace Heider, Eugenia Hanfmann, Lewin, and myself, in Massachusetts during Lewin’s first years of residence in the United States. The Quaselstrippe meetings continued in the States and by then comprised a sizeable group of people interested in Topological Psychology.

  • A History of Cultural-Historical Gestalt Psychology: Vygotsky, Luria, Koffka, Lewin, and Others1
    ISSN 2076-7099 Психологический журнал Международного университета природы, общества и человека «Дубна» № 1, с. 98-101, 2012 Dubna Psychological Journal www.psyanima.ru A History of Cultural-Historical Gestalt Psychology: Vygotsky, Luria, Koffka, Lewin, and others1 A. Yasnitsky The interrelations between Soviet psychologists of ―Vygotsky Circle‖ (Yasnitsky, 2009, 2011) and German-American Gestalt psychologists and similarities of their theories were noted in a few studies (e.g., Chaiklin, 2011; e.g., Scheerer, 1980), but systematic investigation of the history and the substance of these connections have never been done. This study addresses this gap in scholarship and attempts to investigate the huge network of Soviet, German, and American scholars that is described here under the umbrella term ―Cultural-Historical Gestalt-Psychology‖ (Yasnitsky, 2012a). This study is based on the analysis of the archival documents found in the archives of Kurt Lewin, Kurt Koffka, Molly Harrower, and Fritz Heider (all in the Archives of the History of American Psychology, University of Akron, AHAP), Tamara Dembo (Clark University archives); and documents previously published in a number of scholarly works and memoirs (Harrower, 1983; King & Wertheimer, 2005; Lück, 2001; E. A. Luria, 1994; Marrow, 1969; Métraux, 2002; Rückriem, 2008; Vygodskaya & Lifanova, 1996; Vygotsky & Puzyrei, 2004, 2007). The paper leads its reader through several episodes that characterise the stages in the development of the interrelationships between the Soviet and the Western scholars and their gradual convergence on a number of theoretical and methodological issues. The key events and processes of the history of the ―beautiful friendship‖ are organized chronologically: 1925: European trips of Vygotsky and Luria, made independently and on different occasions, in summer 1925.

  • Globalizing Rehabilitation Psychology: Application of Foundational Principles to Global Health and Rehabilitation Challenges
    Rehabilitation Psychology © 2016 American Psychological Association 2016, Vol. 61, No. 1, 65–73 0090-5550/16/$12.00 http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/rep0000068 Globalizing Rehabilitation Psychology: Application of Foundational Principles to Global Health and Rehabilitation Challenges Jacob A. Bentley Susanne M. Bruyère Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine Cornell University Jeanne LeBlanc Malcolm MacLachlan Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Trinity College and Stellenbosch University Purpose/Objective: This article reviewed foundational principles in rehabilitation psychology and explored their application to global health imperatives as outlined in the World Report on Disability (World Health Organization & World Bank, 2011). Research Method/Design: Historical theories and perspectives are used to assist with conceptual formulation as applied to emerging international reha- bilitation psychology topics. Results: According to the World Report on Disability (World Health Organization & World Bank, 2011), there are approximately 1 billion individuals living with some form of disability globally. An estimated 80% of persons with disabilities live in low- to middle-income countries (WHO, 2006). The primary messages and recommendations of the World Report on Disability have been previously summarized as it relates to potential opportunities for contribution within the field of rehabilitation psychology (MacLachlan & Mannan, 2014). Yet, undeniable barriers remain to realizing the full potential for contributions in low- to middle-income country
