- The author underlines the importance that psychodynamic diagnosis is inspired to a dimensional approach rather than a categorial one. In personality disorders, referring strictly to DSM diagnostic categories can reduce the complexity of the single clinical situation. The metacognitive deficit, which is present in various degree in personality disorders, has predominantly a defensive role against the pain and the anxiety caused by the recognition of mental contents presented by refusing and aggressive parental figures.Key Words: Psychodynamic diagnosis; Personality disorders; Metacognition; Therapeutic relationship; Defences of the Self.Parole chiave: diagnosi psicodinamica; disturbi di personalitŕ; metacognizione; relazione terapeutica; difese del sé.

Abstract. In psychology, thinking is typically studied in terms of a range of behavioral or physiological parameters, focusing, for instance, on the mental contents or the neuronal correlates of the thinking process proper. In the current article, by contrast, we seek to complement this approach with an exploration into the experiential or inner dimensions of thinking. These are subtle and elusive and hence easily escape a mode of inquiry that focuses on externally measurable outcomes. We illustrate how a sufficiently trained introspective approach can become a radar for facets of thinking that have found hardly any recognition in the literature so far. We consider this an important complement to third-person research because these introspective observations not only allow for new insights into the nature of thinking proper but also cast other psychological phenomena in a new light, for instance, attention and the self. We outline and discuss our findings and also present a roadmap for the reader interested in studying these phenomena in detail.

Relational Space

- In this article the authors reflect upon the emotional aspects of the therapeutic relationship, and especially on anger and boredom, two emotions that never had room within the theory of systemic therapy. This notwithstanding, systemic therapists often find themselves in situations where they experience such emotions with their clients. The leading thread of the present work is, therefore, the description of some situations where psychotherapy appears more difficult because anger and boredom are perceived as obstacles. Manifold opportunities emerge, instead, when both therapists and clients feel free and entitled to acknowledge such emotions and meta-communicate on them. To give a processual sense to these (and other) emotions, the authors think consistent with systemic thinking to locate them in the relational space "between" the actors of therapy. Therapist(s) and client(s) create a dialogical exchange with emotional aspects: in this perspective, the information brought by so-called unpleasant emotions is as relevant as that brought by satisfaction or enthusiasm. Key words: Emotions, theory of technique, systemic therapy, therapeutic relationship, anger, boredom.

Aim: This paper aims to analyse the self-efficacies of coaches of different branches. Methods: This study, which was conducted by using coach self-efficacy scale, reached totally 192 volunteering coaches who lived in Çanakkale and Balıkesir. The data collected were then analysed on the SPSS programme. The kurtosis and skewness values were examined so as to check the distribution of the data, and consequently, the data were found to have normal distribution. Results: As a result, statistically significant differences were found between the coaches aged 28-32 and coaches aged 33-37 in their levels of self-efficacy in general and in the sub-factor of efficacy in impersonating. Accordingly, the coaches who were in 28-32 age group had higher self-efficacy and efficacy in impersonating than the ones who were in 33-37 age group. On the other hand, there were no statistically significant differences between the participants’ levels of self-efficacy according to gender, branch and professional experience. Conclusion: The coaches in the 28-32 age group were found to have higher self-efficacy and efficacy in impersonating than the coaches in the 33-37 age group on examining the results obtained. No differences were found between the participants in the other factors. Key Words: Self-efficacy, coaches, sport

<p>The aim of the research is to find out how motivation is reflected by the main characters in the movie “42”, the effort that Jackie and Rickey make in order to fulfill the needs and to analyze the influence of personality on motivation of the main characters. The writer uses qualitative descriptive research in observing the motivation of the main characters of the Movie “42”. The writer limited the data which are classified them into different level needs based on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Need theory. However, the writer sees that the main characters had different level of needs structure as their salient. Such as : As for Jackie, the writer found that from 5 level of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Needs, there were 2 salient needs; the belongingness and love needs, and the self-esteem need. As for Rickey, there was just 1 need he had to fulfill; the self-actualization need. The writer also noticed the process to fulfill the needs from one level needs to the higher one was not always in a hundred percent to be fulfilled, otherwise the lower need could partly fulfilled so we could go to the higher one as motivation.  <br /> <br />Key words: Motivation, Personality, Racism, Hierarchy of Human Needs</p>

Underlying Medical Condition

Abstract Patients with underlying medical disease can present to the health care system with psychiatric symptoms predominating. Identification of an underlying medical condition masquerading as a psychiatric disorder can be challenging for clinicians, especially in patients with an existing psychiatric condition. The term medical mimic or secondary psychosis has been used to describe this clinical situation. Diagnostic categories from The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, that may encompass medical mimics include substance-induced disorders, which includes medications, and unspecified mental disorder due to another medical condition in situations where the clinician may lack needed information for a complete diagnosis. At this time, there is no single diagnostic test or procedure available to differentiate primary versus secondary psychosis on the basis of psychopathology presentation alone. When considering a diagnosis, clinicians should evaluate for the presence of atypical features uncharacteristic of the psychiatric symptoms observed; this may include changes in functionality and/or age of onset and symptom presentation severity. The purpose of this work is to provide a structured clinical framework for evaluation for medical mimics, identify groups considered to be at highest risk for medical mimics, and present common syndromic features suggestive of a medical mimic. Selected case scenarios are used to illustrate key concepts for evaluating and assessing a patient presenting with acute psychiatric symptomatology to improve judgment in ruling out potential medical causality.

Two psychotherapy groups of patients with personality disorders were observed for 12 sessions using direct observation techniques. 13 behaviors occurred with differing frequency between the two groups, resulting in a behavioral profile consistent with the diagnostic categories. The study is a first step in an attempt to create a replicable method and data base for measuring behavioral effects of therapeutic interventions.
