Abstract:

Peut-il y avoir une science du vécu identitaire ? Si la science est l’étude objective de principes généraux, le vécu identitaire subjectif peut-il être décrit, quantifié et conceptualisé en termes scientifiques ? De précédents travaux suggèrent que le vécu identitaire est associé à la qualité de vie, la dépression et le suicide (Nizzi et al., 2012). Pourtant, les professionnels de santé n’ont à ce jour aucun outil fiable à leur disposition pour évaluer le vécu identitaire de leurs patients. Développer des outils psychométriques informatifs et largement utilisables pourrait contribuer à de nouv

Abstract:

The ex-Services population is estimated to make up between 3.5% to 10% of the prison population according to the Defence Analytic Services Agency (DASA, 2010) .and National Association for Probation Officers (NAPO, 2008). Soldiers are believed to make up the largest occupational group in the prison system, numbering at least 8,500 (NAPO). Many ambiguities exist around how the Services experience may impact upon personnel and potentially on subsequent offending behaviour. In my view there is limited research which addresses the issue directly and discussions have tended to focus on the same con

Abstract:

The United States is in the process of changing demographically. As a result, there is an increasing demand for culturally appropriate counseling services for minority groups. However, little research about counselors' ability to deal with issues stemming from bilingualism is available. As language is used to establish the relationship in counseling, the importance of counselors' understanding regarding how a second language may influence the counseling process is vital. Although numerous studies have thus far emphasized the significance of cultural knowledge and the need for bilingual counsel

Abstract:

Much of the walking that we do in our daily lives is dull, but sometimes, unexpectedly, it can be revelatory. During these moments, through what phenomenologist Maurice Merleau-Ponty calls the â lived perspectiveâ of walking, we experience a merging of our inner and outer worlds and achieve greater self-awareness. Although most of our experience in the landscape is through movement, we rarely design for such spaces.

The broad aim of this thesis is to develop a holistic conception of the self in relation to the complex interplay between education for ethical literacy and the notion of an agent as an ontological reality capable of self-transformation and self-realisation. To this end, ethical literacy, as a function of a holistic education, is conceived as enabling individuals to realise their essential nature through leading morally decent lives. The purpose of enquiry into the concept of the self is to highlight that since the self- transformative aims of ethical literacy are exercised on the self by the

Abstract:

A narrative analysis was conducted to explore the research question: How do women reshape their sense of self-identify after being diagnosed with breast cancer? The diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer can leave women feeling as if their pre-cancer identity no longer fits for who they perceive themselves to be. There is a need for a better understanding of how women negotiate their experiences into a post-diagnosis self-identity. Counselling psychology is well-suited for this research because of its emphasis on helping individuals to navigate the various social, emotional, relational, and

Abstract:

Non-suicidal self-injury, more popularly referred to as ‘self-harm,’ has become a well established and somewhat haunting presence within late-modern western culture, however in marked contrast to the recent history of its cultural power and social presence, its clinical analysis and scientific exploration have proven confused, fragmented, and faltering. I argue here that these problems arise from a tendency to model self-harm as an individual psychopathological mechanism, an approach which tends to overlook the meanings and contexts which embed and pervade it as a cultural pattern, a social ph

Because religion, culture, and ideology contribute to adult identity in important ways, and because Judaism and feminism are poorly understood within the general population, research on the experience and meaning of Judaism and feminism is warr

The implementation favored is a strong version of Lewis’ position: root and embedded clauses are uniformly treated as being of property type. Our approach elaborates Chierchia’s (1990) view that de se construals arise via binding by an abstraction operator in the clausal left periphery. Part I develops an argument that such ope

Abstract:

Stimuli caused by our own voluntary actions receive a special treatment in the brain. In auditory processing, the N1 and/or P2 components of the auditory event-related brain potential (ERP) to self-initiated sounds are attenuated compared to passive sound exposure, which has been interpreted as an indicator of a predictive internal forward mechanism. Such a predictive mechanism enables differentiating the sensory consequences of one´s own actions from other sensory input and allows the mind to attribute actions to agents and particularly to the self, usually called the “sense of agency”.
