Therefore, a survey was applied to men and women with age over 18 (eighteen) years old, registered in the above mentioned community. The survey had 6 (six) identification questions and 6 (six) semi-open questions answered by the internet. To analyze the data, it was used the Thematic Analysis, described by author Douglas Ezzy (2002). From the gathered data, a profile of the zombie character was defined and its context from the Jungian psychology point of view. It was observed that the zombie character represents a metaphor for current constellated complexes associated to feelings of strangeness, bond break, lack of solidarity, existential insecurity, relationship dehumanization, consumerism and fear or denial of death. The conclusion from the analysis of the character is a reflection of the current life panorama in society and relationships, as well as a projection of individual anxieties / A pesquisa realizada visou compreender o fator motivador da participação das pessoas cadastradas na comunidade virtual Zombie walk Rio de Janeiro, presente no website de relacionamento Facebook. Para tanto, foi aplicado um questionário a homens e mulheres acima de 18 (dezoito) anos, cadastrados na comunidade virtual mencionada. O questionário contou com 6 (seis) perguntas de identificação, e 6 (seis) questões semiabertas respondidas via Internet. Para análise dos dados foi utilizado o método de Análise Temática, conforme descrito pelo autor Douglas Ezzy (2002). A partir dos dados levantados, realizou-se uma leitura do personagem zumbi e seu contexto sob a ótica da psicologia junguiana. Foi observado que o personagem zumbi constitui uma metáfora para alguns complexos constelados na atualidade, associados a sentimento de estranheza, ruptura de vínculos, falta de solidariedade, insegurança existencial, desumanização das relações, consumismo e medo, ou negação da morte. Conclui-se que a leitura desse personagem reflete um panorama atual de vida em sociedade e relacionamentos, assim como serve de projeção para angústias individuais

Leukemias are the most common malignancies in childhood. The child is affected in its entirety by the reality of treatment and this is an important moment in its development. the benefits that promotes art therapy are known in the manifestation of psychological activity promoting access to internal content, increasing the well being of the individual and allowing application in diagnostic and therapeutic intervention approach. The aim of this study was that the effects of art therapy on the expression of emotional experiences of children in the treatment of leukemia. The effects studied were the feelings experienced by children with leukemia. We conducted a field survey and the results were treated qualitatively. Participants were four children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, between 5 and 8 years of age, of both sexes, attended an outpatient specialties of a provincial city of São Paulo. The instruments used were: Questionnaire socio-demographic and clinical history script. five sessions of art therapy directed with each child were held. The preparation of the sessions was to develop a technique of psychological research by art therapy, which can be associated with other techniques used in the clinical context and the imagistic content of the productions was analyzed in the light of Jungian psychology. One of the aspects discussed in this research is that expressive activities favored the expression of emotions and feelings of children about their disease process and also other aspects involving their emotional development. In this sense, there was contact between aspects of the conscious and the unconscious. The use of art through the proposed modalities: drawing, collage, painting and modeling made it possible to observe the establishment of emotional bond between her and her work. Some images were recurrent, as referring to polarities, such as life and death, death and rebirth, rain and sun, night and day. These images seem to appear as compensation ahead the imbalance arising from the process of becoming ill, as the regulatory function of the psyche. The making art and think about the production seem to have provided connection to channel the emotions of the participating children. It was noticed also that the sessions possibly helped children to develop their disease process. With regard to images and recurring colors, raise imagine that these are the manifestation of personal content and groups of children. Note that the open space where it ensured the manifestation of content through art was paramount to the imagistic content could be manifested. / O câncer na infância corresponde a um grupo de diversas doenças que tem como elemento comum a proliferação descontrolada de células anormais e podem ocorrer em qualquer parte do organismo. As leucemias são as neoplasias mais comuns na infância. A criança é afetada em sua totalidade pela realidade do tratamento e isso ocorre num momento importante de seu desenvolvimento. São conhecidos os benefícios que a arteterapia promove na manifestação da atividade psicológica como facilitadora de acesso aos conteúdos internos, ampliando o bem-estar do individuo e permitindo a aplicação numa abordagem de intervenção diagnóstica e terapêutica. O objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar quais os efeitos da arteterapia na expressão das vivências emocionais de crianças em tratamento de leucemia. Os efeitos estudados foram os sentimentos vivenciados pelas crianças com leucemia. Realizou-se uma pesquisa de campo e os resultados foram tratados qualitativamente. Participaram da pesquisa quatro crianças diagnosticadas com leucemia linfoide aguda, entre 5 e 8 anos de idade, de ambos os sexos, atendidas num ambulatório de especialidades de uma cidade interiorana de São Paulo. Os instrumentos utilizados foram: Questionário sócio demográfico e Roteiro de anamnese. Foram realizadas cinco sessões dirigidas de arteterapia com cada criança. A elaboração das sessões consistiu no desenvolvimento de uma técnica de investigação psicológica pela arteterapia, que pode ser associada a outras técnicas utilizadas no contexto clínico e o conteúdo imagético das produções foi analisado à luz da psicologia junguiana. Um dos aspectos discutidos nesta pesquisa é que as atividades expressivas favoreceram a expressão de emoções e sentimentos das crianças a respeito do seu processo de adoecimento e ainda de outros aspectos que envolveram seu desenvolvimento emocional. Nesse sentido, observou-se o contato entre aspectos do consciente e do inconsciente. O uso da arte através das modalidades propostas: desenho, colagem, modelagem e pintura fez com que fosse possível observar o estabelecimento de vínculo afetivo entre ela e a sua obra. Algumas imagens foram recorrentes, como as que remetem às polaridades, tais como vida e morte, morte e renascimento, chuva e sol, noite e dia. Essas imagens parecem surgir como compensação diante do desequilibrio advindo do processo de adoecer, como função reguladora da psique. O fazer arte e o pensar sobre a produção parecem ter proporcionado conexão com canais das emoções das crianças participantes. Percebeu-se, ainda, que as sessões possivelmente auxiliaram as crianças a elaborar seu processo de adoecimento. Com relação às imagens e cores recorrentes, suscitam imaginar que se tratam da manifestação de conteúdos pessoais e coletivos das crianças. Vale destacar que o espaço aberto onde se assegurou a manifestação de conteúdos mediante a arte foi primordial para que o conteúdo imagético pudesse ser manifestado

O reassentamento involuntário é uma forma de intervenção que promove a remoção forçada de uma população de suas casas para uma nova casa em outra localidade, visando à implementação de um projeto de habitação. Sendo um processo que envolve mudanças de casa, espaço e comunidade, o presente trabalho busca uma maior compreensão sobre a dimensão psicológica do reassentamento involuntário a partir da perspectiva de famílias reassentadas sobre a sua experiência e os sentidos atribuídos ao processo. Assim, foram entrevistados quatro reassentados do Programa de Aceleração do Crescimento/Projetos Prioritários de Investimento, do município de Pinhais do estado do Paraná, em diferentes estágios do reassentamento. Considerando o espaço como simbólico e a casa como referência do indivíduo no mundo, verificou-se a grande mobilização de conteúdos emocionais a partir da experiência do reassentamento para estes sujeitos. A ausência de participação na execução do programa e as perdas inerentes às mudanças exigidas, em especial da casa, mobilizaram imagens de sofrimento e morte por parte dos reassentados-independente de uma concordância anterior dos entrevistados pelo reassentamento. Assim, antes que possam se ver como beneficiários de uma casa nova, os reassentados enfrentam perdas profundas e uma morte simbólica, necessitando de uma elaboração da experiência para conseguir reconstruir a sua vida, seu lar e, por fim, renascer / Involuntary resettlement is a form of intervention that promotes the forced removal of a population from their homes to a new home in another location in order to implement a housing project. Being a process that involves home changes, and community space, this paper seeks a greater understanding of the psychological dimension of the involuntary resettlement from the perspective of resettled families about their experience and the meanings attributed to the process. Consequently, we interviewed four resettled PAC program / PPI in the city of Pinhais / Paraná, at different stages of resettlement. Considering the space as a symbol and the house as the individual reference in the world, there was a great mobilization of emotional content from the resettlement experience for these persons. The lack of participation in the program implementation and losses of the inescapable changes, especially the house, mobilized suffering and death images by the resettled - regardless of a previous agreement of the interviewed about the resettlement. So, before they can see themselves beneficiaries of a new home, the resettled must deal with deep losses and a symbolic death, requiring an elaboration of experience to be able to reconstruct their life, their home and finally reborn

This thesis looks at the Jungian concept of the archetypes and the connection between the process of individuation and social ecology. An unnatural split between thinking and feeling is seen to be entrenched in society and to be a cause for conflict. It is argued that this split has its origins in the individual 's unresolved inner conflict of ego and shadow. The idea of the archetype is examined in the context of Jung's observations about psychic features which he made throughout his lifetime. While it is true the psychic archetypes have an immense significance for a society in general, it is also true that archetypes are absolutely central in the life of the individual. The central part played by mythology and fairy tale in Jungian psychology is explored using a North American Indian myth as a vehicle for an exposition for some major concepts. Inheritance of archetypes is perhaps the central feature of controversy surrounding the Jungian concept of psychic archetypes and a possible mechanism of inheritance based on the idea of the 'meme' and its relationship to the gene, is examined. The ancient story of Aladdin and the Lamp, is found to contain inherent psychic features or artefacts, which elucidate the concept of the ego/shadow polarity, and so can be seen to constitute an example of an 'archaeology' of archetypes. The apparent dual nature of the archetype is further explored by comparing and contrasting the archetypes of the 'wise old man' and the 'wicked magician', and this dual nature exploration is seen to be in essence an examination of the ego/shadow equilibrium, which exerts its influence on all manifestations at the moment of expression. This unexpected influence on the archetype, despite the archetype's collective nature, explains the positive and negative faces of the archetypes and seems to resolve some questions about their moral, amoral and/or polar nature. The resolution of psychic conflict in the context of Jungian individuation and how the individuation process may influence the expression of collective features, is also found to have the ego/shadow equilibrium as the central psychic structure. / Master of Science (Hons) (Social Ecology)

This thesis explores, through critical dialogue and personal experience, various aspects of rehabilitation in the context of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. The journey visits broad, in principle, government policy reports. It touches on insurance and political aspects of health care; the separation between medical, convalescent and tertiary divisions of the rehabilitation professions; and, most importantly, it is concerned with the personal struggle to find some ‘meaning’ in the experience of a chronic illness for which there is, at this stage, no cure. From this arises the complexity of the inter-relationships between professionals and clients and the vexed question of ethics. The writing or methodology is first-person narrative, with deep roots in natural philosophy, and the dissertation can be read on several levels. It can also be read as a meta-thesis, that is, as an illustration of the process of researching/writing in an experiential methodology / Master of Science (Hons) Social Ecology

This study is textual in its resource rather than empirical, and is applied to the experiential nature of the dream-ego. It is conceptual in its application, and its domain of inquiry is focussed on redescribing and reinterpreting the Jungian literature in order to further inform the understanding of the role of the dream-ego in analytical psychological practice. The major underlying assumption which forms the primary foundation for this study is that ‘mind is the subjective experience of brain’ and this statement serves the purpose of positioning the study as being anchored in biological science but not biological in scope. The statement also implies there is no conflict in the conclusions of neurobiological studies and phenomenological studies and positions these realms as correlates of each other. The subjective experience of brain is the realm in which our lives are lived and in which all our perceptions, ideas and feelings are experienced and so the phenomenological approach of the study is a consequence of that fact. The focus is on the dream-ego itself, using a selection of Jung’s own recorded dreams as vehicles to support, describe and reinterpret concepts from the literature in order to elucidate the dream-ego’s function in psychological health. If the dreaming state were exclusively an innocuous epiphenomenon of neurological processes with no experiential function, then it would be expected that the images generated would be quarantined from consciousness entirely, for reasons of psychic stability and hence then cease to be images, but the commonality and regularity of the dream-ego experience indicates an evolved psychic phenomenon with a definite relationship to the waking-ego. The remarkable images and associations experienced in dreams are expressions of the psyche’s uncompromising experiential authenticity and although these dream experiences may be profoundly complex, the dream-ego is seen to have an underlying naivety whose nature is captured by the title of Charles Rycroft’s (1981) book “The Innocence of Dreams”. When the dream-ego is contrasted to the waking-ego it becomes clear that the major difference is in this ‘innocence’ which is a consequence of the attenuation of rationality and volition for the dream-ego. This weaker rationality and volition prevents the dream-ego from talking or walking its way out of confrontation with unconscious content which manifests before it. The dream-ego experience is based on feelings and emotions which were the original reasons and criteria driving the censorship of the ‘feeling toned complexes’, as Jung describes them. The experience of unconscious material by the vulnerable dream-ego and the subsequent transfer to the waking-ego provides the option for the waking-ego to ‘reconsider’ or to make decisions based on the authentic feelings of the psyche. The fact that mammals exhibit REM sleep, and the strong case for mammals dreaming during that period, complicates the understanding of human dream function. In non dreaming sleep the ego is annihilated but is underwritten by the neural networks which constitute the ego when ‘active����. Since neural networks are known to atrophy with disuse, the sequestered ego is at risk of loss of fidelity on manifestation, and therefore may mismatch the environmental context. The study presents the dreaming state as the periodic partial activation of the ����neural ego���� to prevent atrophy and to maintain ego retrieval fidelity. This concept has applicability also to the animal case, since they must maintain their behavioural fluency and environmental congruence. Once the evolved dreaming state is established in mammals it may be subject to further evolutionary possibilities and subtleties in the human case. A consequence of this study is the presentation of the dream-ego as the partial arousal of the waking-ego, rather than the normal wording of the dream-ego as the half asleep waking-ego, since the dream-ego is seen as the psyche rehearsing its ego. The defining phenomenology of the dream-ego is found in its vulnerability to the feelings and emotions of the psyche, but paradoxically this vulnerability is its strength in its role as the feeling nexus between the unconscious and conscious mind. The waking-ego which may misconstrue its role in the psyche’s scheme of things and become aloof in its mentations believing all problems are intellectual, has the innocence of the dream-ego experience as its lifeline to the psyche’s authenticity. It is the intent of this study to contribute to the understanding of the role of the dream-ego experience in therapeutic practice, and placing the dream-ego as the protagonist of the study, to be attentive to the power of its innocence. / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

This thesis applies the analytical psychology of C. G. Jung to the study of films. The thesis is in three parts. Part One forms an introduction to the theory of analytical psychology and makes the initial links to film theory. Part Two involves the development of a model for systematically applying the theory and Part Three is a detailed analysis of one film. Part One: In Chapter One Jung's theories about conscious behaviour are explored, some initial points of contact are made with film analysis, and a variety of films are used to illustrate the relevance of the theory. Chapter Two finds areas of correspondance between Jung's theories of the unconscious and film theory. This is a bridging of what had previously been regarded as separate critical traditions. Chapter Three is a detailed analysis of Tightrope (Dir. R. Tuggle, Warner Brothers, 1984) which demonstrates the applicability of analytical psychology n the analysis of films. Part Two: Chapter Four presents more theory about the nature of archetypes, and from this a model is derived. This model enables the central tenets of analytical psychology to be used for the analysis of films. This is demonstrated in Chapter Five which is an analysis of the detective film Blade Runner (Dir. R. Scott, Columbia, 1982). Chapter Six explores the function of the symbol in film, especially how it relates to the development of the narrative and to the psychological growth of the film's central characters. Chapter Seven is the last of the theoretical chapters and indicates how the individuation process can be applied to films. The figures of the shadow and the femme fatale are regarded as having a particular generic and cultural importance. Part Three: The remaining chapters are a detailed examination of Trancers (Dir. C. Band, Lexyen Productions, 1984), in which the model established in Chapter Four is used to facilitate the analysis of the film. This reveals that beneath the visual and narrative surface of the film there exists a series of mythological and psychological structures. Ultimately the film is regarded as an expression of collective latent unconscious psychological needs.

M. Tech. Fine Arts / This dissertation will attempt to contextualise the notion of art created by individuals suffering from schizophrenia. These individuals include four non-westernised individuals. Artworks used in this dissertation were obtained, with permission, from a psychiatric facility on the East Rand. It is the aim of this dissertation to analyse the symbols that manifest in these artworks, symbols that manifest from the personal unconscious of collective unconscious. The symbols that manifest in these artworks will be analysed through the application of Jungian psychoanalytic theory as put forth by the 20th century analytical psychologist, Carl Gustav Jung. The Jungian theoretical propositions to be included in the argument include: Jung's view of the psyche (which is divided into ego, personal unconscious and the collective unconscious, which houses the main archetypes) as well as Jungian views on symbolism, and Jung's understanding of schizophrenia. This thesis attempts to show that the methodology that is used during the Jungian dream analysis can also be applied to the analysis of artworks created by schizophrenic individuals. Dream analysis, in this context, will be adapted to an analysis of visual symbols.
