SEPARATION-INDIVIDUATION PROCESSES IN ADULTHOOD

Author(s): Vesna Anđelković / Language(s): English Issue: 02/2015

The concept of separation-individuation is one of the most influential paradigms that sprang from the psychoanalytical theory. The process of separation-individuation takes place during the lifetime and significantly influences every phase of development in the life-long cycle. Even though this process is determined by the previous experience in adulthood, it is not the copy of the childhood experiences. This paper elaborates on some of the following midlife developmental tasks which influence separation-individuation processes: 1) accepting the aging process in the body; 2) coming to terms with time limitation and personal death; 3) maintaining intimacy; 4) transforming the relationship with grown-up children by letting them go and establishing the relationship with new family members; 5) becoming a grandparent; 6) caring for aging and dying parents; 7) exercising and relinquishing power in the workplace; and 8) building and maintaining friendships.

FAMILY CONTEXT OF CHILDREN AND YOUTH WHO EXHIBIT VIOLENT BEHAVIOR

Author(s): Marija Marković / Language(s): English Issue: 02/2015

This paper seeks to clearly distinguish the factors of family context for which it is found that may represent particular risk factors for the appearance and perpetuation of anti-social behavioral patterns in children and youth. We considered not only the structural family characteristics of future bullies, but also the integrative-disintegrative processes within the family. The paper aims to clearly distinguish family factors for which there is strong empirical evidence about their impact on the formation of future bullies. The general assumption is that there are certain specific family contexts, certain family variables that favor the emergence and perpetuation of patterns of violent behavior in children and youth. It is important to acknowledge these factors, because of the fact that certain family circumstances represent risk factors for violent behavior of children and youth. Therefore, their acknowledgement and their identification represent the starting point of interventive and preventive actions of society and its institutions towards solving the problem of violence.

SOME DETERMINANTS OF THE PERCEPTION OF WORK–FAMILY CONFLICT: A DYADIC APPROACH

Author(s): Ana Šimunić,Maja Pandža,Ljiljana Gregov / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2017

The general aim of this study was to examine the contribution of perceived social support from family, the quality of family function-ing, attitudes about marital roles, and striving for achievement to the perceived conflict between work and family roles by using a dyadic approach. Namely, the interaction of spouses’ perceptions was taken into account (actor and partner effects) in predicting work-to-family and family-to-work conflicts. This study was con-ducted on a sample of 176 employed married couples in the ter-ritory of central and western Herzegovina and central Dalmatia. Self-assessment questionnaires were used. In women, social support from family was a significant predictor for both examined types of work–family conflicts, and partner effects were greater than actor effects, especially for family-to-work conflict. Both part-ners’ striving for achievement was a positive predictor of family-to-work conflict in women, while there was only a contribution of the actor striving for achievement to both types of work–family conflict in men. In men, the only partner effect was obtained in the relationship between social support from family and family-to-work conflict. In general, the results indicated that the assess-ments of male spouses were more related to their wife’s work–family conflict than vice versa, and that these variables were more related to family-to-work conflict than to work-to-family conflict.

A felnőtté válás lehetőségei és útvesztői: a "készülődő felnőttség" és kapunyitási krízis

Author(s): Szende Elekes / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 1/2017

Contrary to Erikson’s developmental theory, nowadays it is a common phenomenon that identity achievement goes well beyond adolescence, extending even until the end of the twenties. Jeffrey Arnett suggested that in industralized socities a new life stage has occured between the ages 18 and 25, calling it emerging adulthood. Th is period that is neither adolescence, nor young adulthood, poses no normative expectations and obligatory adult roles on the youngster. It is a prolonged moratorium, that allows the person to explore several adult roles, without being obliged to commit themselves in a certain job or relationship. Although emerging adulthood is an „age of possibilities” for many, transition to adulthood may mean a crisis for many young people in their twenties, especially the transition from school to work. Th e unpredictability of the too many choices, the constant change can place a huge burden on today’s youth, and it results in anxiety, depression and hopelessness. This is in fact an identity crisis, where life goals, values and the whole person are questioned. The person in crisis needs social support or even professional help to conquer the crisis, set up new goals and take decisions.

ASPECTE ALE CAPACITĂŢII MNEZICE LA PREŞCOLARII CU DISLALIE POLIMORFĂ.

Author(s): Valentina Olărescu,Diana Alina Buganu / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 3-4/2018

Dyslalia appears in the child as a learning disability or a developmental disorder that can be related to work memory defi cits. From this perspective, we can say that dyslalia can be maintained by an atypical development of working memory. The evaluation of working memory in polymorphic preschool education would allow the identifi cation of defi cits in mental functioning as a basis for designing mimetic stimulation programs at this age that can be applied concurrently with dissemination programs to accelerate progress in language development and communication to these subjects. Studying the link between the presence of polymorphic dyslalia and the mental capacity in preschoolers, as well as addressing the diffi culties in memory and oral language from the perspective of the verbal information processing model, are important for fi nding more eff ective solutions to early speech therapy.

Features of Authenticity Development in Future Psychologists

Author(s): Halyna Radchuk,Zoriana Adamska,Maria Oliynyk,Mariya Oliynyk / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2019

The article addresses an acute problem of contemporary psychology - theoretical and empirical study of authenticity development in students - future psychologists. Understanding of the authenticity of psychologists as a professionally important integral personal characteristic is described based on a theoretical analysis of existing approaches in Ukrainian and foreign psychology. This construct manifests itself in respectful attention and fair treatment of oneself and own feelings, recognition of own value which makes clients feel that they are understood and accepted. This helps clients understand and accept their own feelings, learn to trust themselves, find strength to realize their own uniqueness, and acquire the ability for self-development. The Authenticity Scale methodology by Alex M. Wood, P. Alex Linley, J. Maltby, M. Baliousis and S. Joseph was used in an empirical research of the authenticity development features in future psychologist – graduates of the bachelor's degree (adaptation of S. Nartova-Bochaver, V. Bardadimova). The basis for this methodology is personality focused understanding of authenticity, which has three levels: self-alienation, authenticity of self-expression and acceptance of external influence.Quantitative and qualitative analysis of the obtained results show that most students – future psychologists – have high level of awareness about their authenticity. At the same time, a majority of students show dependence from thoughts, evaluations and expectations of their environment, as well as insufficient level of understanding of themselves and their inner world, which, in turn, can lead to self-alienation. There is also correlation between the empirical indicators on the Autheticity Scale and the age of the respondents. It has been established that with age the level of awareness of own authenticity, the ability to uphold own beliefs and live in accordance with own values gradually decrease.

Author(s): Dejan Kantar,Jelica Petrović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 172/2019

Концепт оријентације на ум представља важан допринос разумијевању интеракције мајке и дјетета у свјетлу афективне везаности. Уобличен је у настојању да се објасни утицај сензитивног родитељства на формирање сигурне афективне везаности. Иако се истраживања у вези с овим концептом спроводе посљедњих двадесетак година, домаћи аутори који су се бавили социјално-емоционалним развојем само су га узгред помињали, и то као један од фактора који утичу на развој сигурне везаности, односно као механизам којим се може објаснити трансгенерацијски пренос образаца афективне везаности. Стога ће се, с обзиром на његов значај и актуелност, у овом раду детаљније представити концепт оријентације на ум. Пажња ће, прије свега, бити посвећена поријеклу и развоју саме идеје, а затим ће бити описани начини процјене те представљени резултати истраживања важних за освјетљавање теоријске позадине овог феномена. Осим тога, биће предочена и веза оријентације на ум с другим концептима насталим у покушају да се додатно расвијетли квалитет интеракције родитеља и дјетета.

Author(s): Ioana Dârjan,Mihaela Negru,Dan Ilie / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2020

The extensive literature and researches on bullying illustrate the connections between self-esteem and the bullying phenomenon, asserting that both faces, bullying, and being bulliedare related to some degrees with low self-esteem. Considering the bullying behavior as aform of aggressivity and being bullied as an expression of passive behavior, this studyintroduces the third subject of inquiry: the assertive behavior. The study investigates theimpact of self-esteem on assertiveness, passive vs. aggressive conduct, and positiveinteractions among high school students. While these aspects were usually investigated atan early age, this study approaches them in adolescence, involving 82 adolescent studentsfrom high schools from Timisoara, with diverse specializations. The need to fit, the need foracceptance, and the fear of social rejection increase in adolescence. At this age of dramaticchanges, students are susceptible to verbal, physical, or emotional bullying, with an essentialimpact on their self-esteem, as they are very dependent on peers' approval, perceptions andreactions. Healthy self-esteem and assertiveness might be powerful tools to fight againstbullying, but there is very little focus on teaching them in traditional education. This studyshows the strong correlation between self-esteem and assertiveness, and the predispositionof students with low self-esteem to passive or aggressive types of interactions.

Self-concept, interpersonal processes, exploratory and health risk behaviors in adolescents – a study regarding student engagement with school

Author(s): Mugur Ciumăgeanu,Raluca Sfetcu,Florina Suditu / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2020

Adolescence is by definition an “age of risk”, irrelevant if you substantiate such a claim experientially or empirically. Mid-adolescence is the period where the processes of both neural and socio-emotional maturation are linked with an increase in both exploratory and health-risk behaviors. The presentstudy, using a cross-sectional approach, investigates aspects of intra and interpersonal processes inrelationship to risk behaviors and risk perceptions, and tries to link these constructs to studentengagement. The study-sample consisted of 107 9th to 12th graders from three Romanian counties.The measures used were self-reports, appraising intrapersonal configurations (Beck Self-ConceptTest), interpersonal problems (Inventory of Interpersonal Problems), and social and schooladjustment (Social Adjustment Scale – Self Report). Risk behaviors and perception were measured with the Adolescent Exploratory and Risk Behavior Rating Scale (AERRS). The main research findingwas that student engagement with school is in direct relationship with a better self-concept, moreexploratory risk behaviors and a more adequate social adjustment. A puzzling result, explained probably better by the dual-process theory of behavior, is the relationship of risk perception to selfconcept and interpersonal problems (id est – a greater risk perception is correlated with a morefragile self-concept and more interpersonal problems).
