Traditional management-leadership and organizational literature depicts the individual as conflated with their role and instructs them to handle their employees and the situations that arise daily and over the course of business cycles instrumentally and for the purposes of control and productivity. This more traditional and mainstream literature does not adequately address, if at all, the unconscious factors influencing people or the management situations in which they find themselves. Using a model based upon the theory of the Swiss psychologist Carl Gustav Jung and the relationship of consciousness to the unconscious, this dissertation looks at situational management cases and reveals the existence of the unconscious in the midst of our strongest claims to rationality. Present and active, the cases show the unconscious to be a significant factor in creating subjective meaning and ordering our world even in the most "rational" moments of our lives in public administration. They further describe how it is that the individual in the manager-leader role is implicated in and caused by the very situations they are attempting to manage and the way in which acknowledging and relating to the unconscious provides an additional resource for public managers. / Ph.

The factors that hinder or help the development of emotionally competent behaviour in leaders appear to be varied and complex. The role of personality variables such as personality preferences and self-esteem in influencing the development and demonstration of emotional competent behaviour has not yet been well researched. The general aim of this research was to investigate whether a relationship exists between personality preferences, self-esteem and emotional competence, and to determine whether the variables personality preferences and self-esteem can predict the demonstration of emotional competence. Personality preferences were studied from the Analytical Psychology paradigm. Jung's Psychological Types and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator theory of Personality Types provided a theoretical understanding of individual differences in emotional response behaviour. Based on the Humanistic and Social Psychology paradigms, the construct self-esteem was explored from a multi-dimensional perspective with particular emphasis on individuals' self-evaluative views and feelings of self-worth, self-acceptance, sense of belonging and sense of psychological well-being within the particular socio-cultural domain in which these aspects manifest themselves. Emotional competence was studied from the paradigmatic perspectives of the Cognitive Social Learning theories. Emotional competence was viewed as the workplace application of emotional intelligence abilities, which are developable and can be learned. In this regard, emotional competence was described as the demonstration of self-efficacious behaviour in emotion-eliciting social transactions. Emotional competence implies a sense of psychological well-being (a positive inner state of being) and an ability to skillfully, creatively and confidently adapt in an uncertain, unstructured and changing socio-cultural environment. An empirical investigation was conducted to analyse the responses of a randomly selected sample of 107 South African leaders in the manufacturing industry to measures of these three constructs. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), the Culture-free Self-esteem Inventories for Adults (CFSEI-AD), and the 360° Emotional Competency Profiler (ECP) were administered. The MBTI extraverted-thinking and extraverted-intuitive personality preferences were associated with the CFSEI-AD social, general and total self-esteem scales. In terms of the ECP emotional competence self-evaluations, self-motivation was associated with the MBTI extraverted-judging, extraverted-thinking and extraverted-intuitive preferences, while interpersonal relations was associated with the extraverted-intuitive and extraverted-feeling preferences. The MBTI introverted-sensing, introverted-judging and introverted-thinking preferences were associated with the ECP emotional literacy scale, and the introverted-judging, introverted-sensing and introverted-thinking preferences were associated with interpersonal relations in terms of the emotional competence other evaluations. The MBTI introverted-thinking preference was associated with the ECP self-esteem/self-regard other evaluations and the CFSEI-AD personal self-esteem scale. The ECP total emotional competence scale was associated with the MBTI extraverted-intuitive preference (in terms of the self-evaluations) and the introverted-judging and introverted-thinking preferences in terms of total emotional competence other evaluations. The CFSEI-AD general, personal and total self-esteem scales were associated with the ECP change resilience, self-motivation, self-esteem/self-regard, interpersonal relations and total emotional competence scales. Furthermore, the findings suggest that the ECP emotional competence construct is closely related to the affective component of the CFSEI-AD self-esteem construct, particularly one's sense of psychological well-being which is related to feelings of self-worth. The empirical results confirmed the effect of self-esteem on the self-evaluations of raters exposed to multi-rater assessments such as the 360° Emotional Competency Profiler, namely that self-raters with very high self-esteem may tend to over-inflate their self-evaluations. The CFSEI-AD total self-esteem scale also appears to be a more reliable predictor of emotional competence than the MBTI personality preferences. The results contributed new knowledge about the relationship between individuals' self-esteem, personality preferences and emotional competence and added perspective on the interpretation of individuals' self-ratings, particularly with regard to 360° emotional competence assessments. Recommendations for Industrial and Organisational Psychology practices regarding leader development are formulated, as well as recommendations for future research in the field. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / D.Litt. et Phil.

The behaviors and situations described were qualitatively analyzed having the concepts of Analytical Psychology as a reference. The work starts with a revision of the material that has been published about the Internet and its developments, and this material comes from different psychological schools. Many publications from other areas are listed (philosophy, sociology, etc), since they also study the psychological factors that are present in the analysis of the Internet usage. A few Jungian works related to the topic are presented as well. A brief summary about the creation and development of computers and the Web and their effects on the relationship man ���� machine is used to examine the relationship between the evolution of new technologies and the development of consciousness considered as processes that occur synchronically. The fifth chapter presents concepts and ideas proposed about the cyberspace as a psychic space. After that, it discusses the notion of a virtual body and presents examples about the presence of the images related to technology in dreams that people have nowadays. The cyberspace is occupied by the internauts who use it as a stage for expressing conflicts, as well as a place for experimenting with new forms for structuring the subjectivity and for establishing relationships and connections. On the other hand, we also notice attempts to create new forms of knowledge, through the use of resources and tools that allow for activities in group and that are offered by the communication made possible through informatization. The last topics of the fifth chapter offer a picture of these expressions in the field of virtuality / O objetivo deste trabalho é descrever comportamentos e vivências dos usuários da Internet, de acordo com observações feitas durante a coordenação do NPPI - Núcleo de Pesquisas da Psicologia em Informática, o Serviço de Informática da Clinica Escola da PUC-SP. O método adotado foi a Observação Participante. Os comportamentos e vivências descritos foram analisados qualitativamente segundo o referencial da Psicologia Analítica. O trabalho se inicia por uma revisão da literatura da qual constam publicações sobre o tema Internet e seus desdobramentos, fundamentadas em diferentes enfoques psicológicos. São relacionadas publicações de áreas afins (filosofia, sociologia etc.) por conterem estudos que tangenciam fatores psicológicos envolvidos na análise dos usos da Internet. Ao final, são apresentados trabalhos junguianos referentes ao tema. Na sequência, insere-se breve histórico sobre a criação e desenvolvimento dos computadores e da WEB e suas repercussões para a relação homem ���� máquina, com o objetivo de relacionar a evolução das novas tecnologias ao desenvolvimento da consciência, como processos que ocorrem em sincronia. Compondo o quinto capítulo são apresentados inicialmente conceitos e proposições sobre o ciberespaço como espaço psíquico. Em seguida, a noção do corpo virtual e ilustrações sobre a presença de imagens referentes à tecnologia nos sonhos da atualidade. O ciberespaço é ocupado pelos internautas como palco de expressão de conflitos e de ensaio de novas formas de estruturação da subjetividade, estabelecimento de vínculos e relacionamentos em renovadas expressões. Como contraponto, observa-se a experimentação de alternativas de construção do conhecimento, com a utilização dos recursos e ferramentas colaborativas oferecidas pela comunicação informatizada. Os últimos itens do quinto capítulo compõem um painel ilustrativo sobre essas expressões do ser humano no campo da virtualidade

To this end, a social approach in the history of psychology was used seeking to place people and facts in a general context once history is inserted in a certain time and place. Three figures considered pioneers in this field in the country were identified Nise da Silveira, Pethö Sándor and Leon Bonaventure whose personal and professional paths are addressed. At the same time, also noted, are the possible related broader events and situations that may be related to their being responsible for their role as pioneers. In mapping the contributions made by these professionals in the field of analytical psychology, one perceives the development of a creative work not limited to the dissemination of Carl Gustav Jung s concepts, but to the proposition of their own methods and techniques. Furthermore, particularly in the work of the two first pioneers researched, one observes the collaboration toward the birth of a Brazilian analytical psychology. / O objetivo deste trabalho é o estudo da constituição da psicologia analítica no Brasil. Para esse fim, utilizou-se a abordagem social em história da psicologia buscando situar personagens e fatos no contexto geral, na medida em que se entende que a história está inserida em determinado tempo e lugar. Foram identificados três personagens considerados pioneiros da disciplina no país Nise da Silveira, Pethö Sándor e Leon Bonaventure, cujos percursos pessoais e profissionais são abordados, ao mesmo tempo em que são apontados eventos e situações mais amplos que podem estar relacionadas ao processo que levou tais pessoas a assumirem o papel de pioneiros. Ao mapear-se a contribuição desses profissionais, para o campo da psicologia analítica, percebe-se o desenvolvimento de um trabalho criativo que não se limita à disseminação, no país, dos conceitos de Carl Gustav Jung, propondo métodos e técnicas próprias. Além disso, particularmente na obra dos dois primeiros pioneiros pesquisados, observa-se a colaboração para a constituição de uma psicologia analítica brasileira.

The diploma thesis is concerned with the spiritual needs of disabled persons. The topic is based on the psychology of personality, characterizes human needs, and defines motivation, values and interests. Basic areas of psychology of religion and religious education follow. The educational view focuses on issues associated with the religiosity of human beings seeking aims for religious education. Further chapters are dedicated to disabled persons, describe basic types of such disability and based on the author´s personal experience they show the specificities of the life of disabled persons. The second part concentrates on meeting the spiritual needs. The thematic area gives rise to the methodological proposal for the didactic opening of the spiritual needs. Several didactic units containing individual lessons for a group of disabled persons form part of the thesis.
