Extreme Work: Occupational Schizophrenia and the Culture of Psychological Integrity of Personality

Summary/Abstract: Extreme work entails not only a high level of risk to a person’s health and life but also certain subcultural peculiarities, one of which is occupational schizophrenia, the absence of a holistic professional view on the environment and oneself, influenced by the cultural development of the members of the work team, particularly in the maritime industry. This article adheres to the epistemological principles of Neo-Thomistic personalism and partly to Gestalt psychology. Occupational schizophrenia devalues theory by emphasizing practice, ignores the inner world of personality and artificially separates the employee’s personal and professional values in extreme work. The article considers and positions the value of promoting the psychological integrity of personality as a whole, including all his or her ontological levels relevant to mental health and the expression of spiritual culture.
