Search Results - Self (psychology)

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

The self is a key construct in several schools of psychology, broadly referring to the cognitive representation of one's identity. The earliest formulation of the self in modern psychology from the distinction between the self as I, the subjective knower, and the self as Me, the object that is known.[1] Current views of the self in psychology diverge greatly from this early conception, positioning the self as playing an integral part in human motivation, cognition, affect, and social identity.[2]

Kohut argued that when the child's ambitions and exhibitionistic strivings were chronically frustrated, arrests in the grandiose self led to the preservation of a false, expansive sense of self that could manifest outwardly, in the visible grandiosity of the frank narcissist, or remain hidden from view, unless discovered in a narcissistic therapeutic transference (or selfobject transference) that would expose these primitive grandiose fantasies and strivings. Kohut termed this form of transference a mirror transference. In this transference, the strivings of the grandiose self are mobilized and the patient attempts to use the therapist to gratify these strivings.

Kohut proposed that arrests in the pole of ideals occurred when the child suffered chronic and excessive disappointment over the failings of early idealized figures. Deficits in the pole of ideals were associated with the development of an idealizing transference to the therapist who becomes associated with the patient's primitive fantasies of omnipotent parental perfection.

Kohut believed that narcissistic injuries were inevitable and, in any case, necessary to temper ambitions and ideals with realism through the experience of more manageable frustrations and disappointments. It was the chronicity and lack of recovery from these injuries (arising from a number of possible causes) that he regarded as central to the preservation of primitive self systems untempered by realism.

1. Relationship Advice - Find Excellent Information That You Can Count On
November 05, 2009

When you need relationship advice, beware of the self-styled experts on relationship issues. If you are serious in improving your relationship, then evaluate the experts on the basis of their experiences and skills. Many people rely on friends and family for getting expert advice to improve their relationship. Do you think it can yield fruitful results? Certainly, the job of an expert relationship consultant is far more serious and involves an in-depth study of human psychology and science. While friends are great for providing moral support you should rely on professionals that can help... (read more)

2. The Secret of Music
November 02, 2009

We at least have to know the size, area of origin, and type of instrument. Based on its size, there is a small to large and short to large. These tools also come from various regions in the world. Also any type of variety, an example we know the name guitars, Angklung, drums, piano, and much more. Each of the instruments has unique characteristics and its own tone and philosophy. Specificity and uniqueness of it is potential. Potential owned by each of these instruments can then be actualized with the good, true, and beautiful when guarded, nurtured and developed by the souls who sincerel... (read more)

3. Explore alternative options
November 01, 2009

You should never believe anyone who tells you that you only have one option, in particular when that person tries to justify his view by quoting some trite anti-philosophical remark. Never pay attention to people who tell you that, in life, you cannot get what you want. The ability to find alternative paths is critical to get out of losing situations. If your parts supplier tells you that you have no choice, find a new supplier. If your internet provider acts as though you have no alternative, change providers. If an expensive computer repair shop tells you that they are the only experts ... (read more)

4. Immobility is the Enemy of Achievement
November 01, 2009

Why would anyone devote efforts to convince himself that he cannot improve his own situation? Although many individuals are conscious of the disadvantages of psychological immobility, such paralysis is frequently endorsed. Millions of men and women fall prey to self-imposed restrictions that they could remove if they wished. Why are restraining beliefs so ingrained in society? What makes human beings support fantasies in word and deed? How is it possible that some people devote their energies to pretending that paralysis is an acceptable approach to living? Three reasons explain why ... (read more)

5. Reduce Strategy to a Simple Formula
November 01, 2009

Consistency is the key to clear thinking. Aristotle described the principles of logical reasoning already in the year 345 B.C. Twenty four centuries later, his conclusions remain applicable. Entities should be defined on the basis of their essential characteristics. Actions lead to consequences. Today's events are the result of previous occurrences. Those few principles govern reality. When a man formulates his long-term objectives, he should strive to write them clearly and break them down into simple steps. A comprehensive philosophy that cannot be summarized into a few sentences is of ... (read more)

6. Heal yourself by understanding your psychology Part 2
November 01, 2009

The topic of healthy psychology is very much directly linked to your self-esteem, because the way that you portray your level esteem and confidence to the world is through an external reflection of your inner acceptance and worth. Your psychology determines what states these are in and has a tendency to unconsciously guide your thoughts unless you intervene and consciously control your thoughts and feelings to higher ground. This is part 2 of the 2 part article on this topic. Part one covers how your psychology works, and we started gaining an understanding of what you can do to take charge ... (read more)

The topic of healthy psychology is very much directly linked to your self-esteem, because the way that you portray your level esteem and confidence to the world is through an external reflection of your inner acceptance and worth. Your psychology determines what states these are in and has a tendency to unconsciously guide your thoughts unless you intervene and consciously control your thoughts and feelings to higher ground than they may to by default, by an accumulation of gathered emotional and physical trauma.

8. Where Are You In Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy Of Needs?
October 29, 2009

As a social work and psychology student, Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs was a theory in which we focused a great deal of time. According to Maslow, there are five levels of needs, ranging from physiological to self-actualization. It is difficult to move from one level to the next without first meeting your needs at the lower level. If you can identify where you are currently at in the hierarchy, it will give you a better understanding of where you are coming from and what you need to do to reach the fifth and final step, self-actualization. The first level, at the base of the pyramid... (read more)

9. Pursue Compatible Goals
October 26, 2009

Ideas are precious and constitute the basis of civilization. Without the concepts of free trade, freedom of speech, and human rights, our standard of living would rapidly fall to medieval levels. Personal goals shape a sustained vision that transforms our talents into valuable products of services. Closed doors reflect fear of change. Rational objectives will take you forward, but it is essential that those are compatible. Inconsistent principles rob each other's force and deplete each other's resources. Keep you door open to new concepts and ideas, but make sure that those are logically ... (read more)

10. Describe Your Future in One Sentence
October 26, 2009

Lies, sweet lies. How much we love them and what ridiculous price we are willing to pay for them! "Men should avoid the distractions of pretence and delusion," wrote German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer in the year 1842. "Expectations disconnected from reality always result in disappointment and sorrow." A clear perception of the world brings man unlimited rewards, but learning to see the truth is seldom easy and never without cost. Only by developing an ambitious and realistic vision of the future can man escape the trap of paralysis. Without sharply-defined objectives, we tend to fall... (read more)

11. The Advantage of Having Limited Resources
October 26, 2009

"Their ships are too small and too frail," maintained King Harold in 1065. "England is perfectly safe. There is absolutely no risk of a Viking invasion." Since the king had himself extensive experience as sailor, the barons and dukes of England assumed that he knew what he was talking about. Was King Harold's conclusion based on facts? Viking or Norman ships are called cogs due to their simple construction technique, whereby pieces of wood are cut so as to fit together without need of nails. Since cogs were equipped with just one mast and one sail, they were easy to handle. Cogs were... (read more)

12. Confidence Through Neuron-linguistic Programming and Self-hypnosis
October 22, 2009

Self confidence is an emotional and mental state of mind which responds to our need for self-acceptance and recognition. It's among the oldest and most studied concepts in psychology. It is used to describe a good albeit adequate perception of oneself and one's abilities. Hence, self-confident persons generally have a better knowledge of what they are able to achieve and are more likely to be successful in what they attempt. They are also more likely to accept and learn from their mistakes. Self confidence is an emotional and mental state of mind which responds to our need for self-accept... (read more)

13. The Use of Self-Improvement Videos
October 21, 2009

It cannot be denied that what works for one does not work for another. If what your friends say and what you read does not seem to inspire you to improve yourself, then it is time to consider self improvement videos. It cannot be denied that some people can better comprehend something when they see it on screen. That is the psychology behind these videos. Getting the focus of the person watching them like no other ways can do. The need for self improvement is now an issue many people are focusing on. There are already a lot of self improvement articles out there. Not only that, a lo... (read more)

14. Avoid Waste and Embrace Frugality
October 19, 2009

Publishers love biographies because they usually sell well for many years. People enjoy reading about the shattering mistakes made by illustrious individuals, such as a great actor who accepts a role in a trash film that ruins his career, a successful investment manager who makes a bad decision and suffers enormous losses, or a millionaire who marries the wrong woman and ends up in devastating divorce. Biographies provide details about how eminent persons waste opportunities and turn themselves into fools. On some occasions, errors are made out of insufficient knowledge, but frequently, v...

15. Discard the Myth of Career Planning
October 19, 2009

Career planning is a delusion created by wishful thinking. The idea that an individual can precisely steer his way from job to job in a rapidly changing society is unrealistic. Instead, a man should have long-term goals and let his career develop according to market opportunities. If you keep your eyes fixed on a point in the horizon, chances are that you will overlook possibilities that arise in your immediate environment. Rationality demands having a long-term vision, but implementation details should be modified to fit current opportunities. Have you ever wondered why indifference... (read more)

16. Rise to the Challenge
October 19, 2009

Reading History is the ideal remedy to discouragement and dissatisfaction. During difficult periods, man can gain perspective by learning how his ancestors turned problems into opportunities. Past centuries have repeatedly shown how individuals with limited resources can face life's challenges and overcome extraordinary obstacles. Hesiod, an Ancient Greek poet, recounted in the year 770 B.C. that "the world did not welcome me when I was born and each season brought nothing but problems and difficulties." The reason for such lamentations was that a court decision in favour of his brother, ... (read more)

17. How Your Inner "Ooga Booga" Could Be Getting You In Trouble
October 16, 2009

You know, everybody has an "Inner Ooga Booga". "Huh? What does that mean?", I hear you say. As highly evolved as man has become, we still carry within us the programming of the Primitive Man, the kind of mentality we crawled around the caves with (insert chest thumping and Wookie sounds here). What is the Primitive Mind? Many parts of our limbic system, (which controls our hormones, appetite, sexual drives emotional responses and a whole lot more) operate from very ancient parts of the brain. So even as martini-swilling sophisticated we think we are, we still have deep unconscious dr... (read more)

18. Discover How Self-Love Might Be Your Missing Key To Success
October 16, 2009

What does self-love have to do with finding the missing key to success in all areas of your life? Everything. It is safe to say that most adults today have been raised to believe that self-love is conceited and arrogant. That is just not true. Simply check out the self-help and psychology sections of your local bookstore. Self-love is about having a healthy respect for one-self and accepting your self unconditionally. It is about nurturing your mind, body and soul in order to be, do and have what you desire. Love yourself, for if you don't, how can you expect anybody else to lov... (read more)

19. Neuro-Linguistic Programming & Self-Hypnosis
October 14, 2009

Self-Confidence is a mental and emotional state of mind that responds to an individual's need for self-acceptance and recognition. It is among the oldest and most discussed concepts in psychology. It describes a positive but nonetheless adequate perception of oneself and one's abilities. As such, people with self confidence most often have a better idea of the things they are able to achieve and are more apt to succeed in what they attempt. They are also more likely to admit and learn from their errors. By contrast, a lack of confidence may prevent you from trusting that what you do and d... (read more)
