Introduction. The article discusses comparative psychograms of groups of respondents. They are formed on the basis of 9 their reasons for non-participation in political life.Materials and Methods. For analysis (120 respondents, 2 sociological questionnaires, 6 personality tests), we use the author's method of multiple comparison (generalized version). As a result, the summ extremeness of these 9 groups were determined within the framework of a problem in which 89 groups were compared.Results. Based on the summ extremeness of personal qualities for three groups of high extremeness, full psychograms are given. These are groups whose respondents: 1) were at a loss to answer why they are not taking part in political life; 2) due to personal employment do not participate in political life; 3) do not take part in political life because they trust the president and believe that he will solve all problems. For next gruops on the extremeness (3 groups), abbreviated psychograms are considered, in which only pronounced personal qualities are indicated. These are groups whose respondents: 1) do not participate in political life because politics is a “dirty business” and decent people have nothing to do there; 2) they do not see leaders whom they could follow, and therefore do not take part in political life; 3) do not participate in political life because, in their opinion, professionals should deal with politics. For the remaining three groups, in which no pronounced personal qualities were revealed (the picture quite averaged over the whole of 89 groups), only their names are listed for reasons of non-participation of their representatives in political life.Discussion and Conclusions. As a result, we can conclude that the reasons for the non-participation of respondents in political life are largely determined by their psychological identity.

The psychological identity of evil: Lacan, aggression and Op soek na generaal Mannetjies Mentz The title of Christoffel Coetzee’s novel Op soek na generaal Mannetjies Mentz introduces a wordplay on Mentz/mens and begs the question: What is man (die “mens”)? Evil as portrayed in this novel can partly be explained by referring to the violent war circumstances, or it can be attributed to the philosophical idea of the “second nature” that Mentz develops in the course of the narrative. I use Lacan’s theory of the formation of identity to explain irrational violence and evil in man. Evil – as seen in this novel – is the result of the following: the pain of a fragmented, suffering body; the identification with an ideal image or leader; the lack of self-reflection; the opposition between “us” and “them”; the Oedipal violence against the parent and the inherent violence of the law.

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of a counselling program to support psychological identity in the light of parental socialisation for a sample of first-year secondary school students. The sample (347) included students randomly selected from eight schools that represented all secondary schools in Dammam and 34 students who showed symptoms of identity disorder. These students were divided into two groups: one experimental group (17) and one control group (17). The research tools consisted of the Psychological Identity States Scale and the Parental Socialisation Styles Scale (their validity and reliability were verified) and a counselling program to improve cases of psychological identity disorder. A descriptive method was used here because it was suitable for identifying the students with psychological identity disorder. A quasi-experimental method was used to investigate the effectiveness of a counselling program in supporting psychological identity. The results showed that the most common cases of problems related to identity were: achieving identity, suspending identity, identity disorder and identity blocking. The most common patterns of family upbringing were: neglected, democratic, permissive, dispersed and authoritarian. There was a statistically significant effect of the indicative program in: improving the status of achieving identity, reducing two cases of identity lock and identity disorder. There was no significant effect of the indicative program in reducing the status of suspending identity.

The article discusses comparative psychograms of groups of respondents formed on the basis of 5 options for the attitude of respondents to the closest vote. Based on the summ extremeness of personal qualities for one group of high extremeness, full psychogram are given. For next gruops on the extremeness (2 groups), abbreviated psychograms are considered, in which only pronounced personal qualities are indicated. For the remaining two groups, in which no pronounced personal qualities were revealed (the picture quite averaged over the whole of 89 groups), only their names are listed. As a result, we can conclude that the attitude of respondents to the next vote is largely determined by their psychological identity.

The concept of a virtue can make an important contribution to a philosophical account of ethics, but virtue theory should not be seen as parallel to other ‘ethical theories’ in trying to provide a guide to action. Modern accounts of the virtues typically start from Aristotle, but they need to modify his view substantially, with respect to the grounding of the virtues in human nature; the question of what virtues there are; their unity; and their psychological identity as dispositions of the agent. In particular, one must acknowledge the historical variability of what have been counted as virtues. Aristotle saw vices as failings, but modern opinion must recognize more radical forms of viciousness or evil. It may also need to accept that the good is more intimately connected with its enemies than traditional views have allowed. Virtue theory helps in the discussion of such questions by offering greater resources of psychological realism than other approaches.
