Tem como objetivo principal detectar a prevalência de aspectos subclínicos do TP em uma amostra representativa da Região Metropolitana de Campinas (RMC), Brasil. Casuística e Método ¿ Realizou-se um estudo epidemiológico de corte transversal. A amostra de estudo constituiu-se de 405 sujeitos, equilibrada segundo sexo, idade e cidade de moradia da população da Região Metropolitana de Campinas (RMC), São Paulo. Utilizou-se o questionário de auto-avaliação ¿Panic Agoraphobic Spectrum-Self Report¿ (PAS-SR) que contém 114 perguntas divididas em 8 Domínios e 13 subdomínios. O total escore do PAS-SR (total de respostas positivas de cada questionário) permite uma avaliação quantitativa dos sintomas correlacionados ao transtorno do pânico (TP) em cada sujeito entrevistado. Resultados- A idade dos sujeitos da amostra variou entre 16 e 89 anos, com média de 36,82 anos e desvio padrão de 14,74. Em relação ao escore total obteve-se uma média de 31,61 e um desvio-padrão de 19,63. Não foram encontradas diferenças significativas quanto aos valores médios do escore total do PAS-SR em relação a: faixa etária (p=0,21), raça (p=0,59), grau de instrução (p=0,20), estado civil (p=0,21) e região (p=0,13). A diferença mais significativa foi encontrada entre os sexos (p=0,001), onde as mulheres apresentaram em média um valor de escore total de 37,45, enquanto os homens de 25,74. A análise fatorial, utilizada como método de validação de construto, indicou que o questionário possui adequadas características psicométricas. Conclusões: Os dados obtidos neste estudo corroboram os da literatura quanto aos fatores mais freqüentemente associados no TP. O instrumento PAS-SR, traduzido e validado para uso no Brasil foi bem compreendido e teve boa aceitação pelos sujeitos da pesquisa. Isso permitiu a individualização de uma faixa da população geral com maior freqüência de sintomas relacionados ao TP. Revelando-se um instrumento útil para avaliação em nosso meio / Abstract: Objective ¿ The current investigation is part of ¿Spectrum Project¿, an international research project already developed in Europe and in the United States, which proposes a methodology for the evaluation of psychopathologic and clinical characteristics of symptoms related to Anxiety Disorder (AD), with a special focus on Panic Disorder (PD). It aims mainly at detecting the prevalence of sub-clinical PD symptms in a representative sample in the Metropolitan Region of Campinas (RMC), Brazil. Method ¿ An epidemiological study of transversal cut was carried out. The sample for this study consisted of 405 subjects and was balanced according to sex, age and city where they live in the Metropolitan Region of Campinas (RMC), São Paulo. The Panic Agoraphobic Spectrum-Self Report (PAS-SR) questionnaire containing 114 questions divided into 8 fields and 13 sub-fields was applied. The total PAS-SR score (total of positive answers of each questionnaire) allows a quantitative evaluation of the symptoms associated with the Panic Disorder (PD) in each interviewed subject. Results ¿ The age of the subjects ranged from 16 to 89 years, mean 36.82 (±14.74) and the total 31.61 ( ±19.63). There were no significant differences in the median values of the PAS-SR total score in relation to age range (p=0.21), race (p=0.77), education level (p=0.20), marital status (p=0.21) and location (p=0.14). The most significant difference was the one found between both sexes (p=0.001). Females presented a mean value of total score of 37.45, while males presented the average of 25.74. Conclusion ¿ The findings agreed substantially with those found in the literature concerning the most frequent factors associated with PD. The PAS-SR instrument, which was translated and validated for use in Brazil, had a good acceptance and was well understood by the subjects who underwent the research. It allowed the individualization of a sample of general population with greater frequency of symptoms related to PD. Thus, it was revealed as a useful instrument for evaluation in our environment / Mestrado / Ciencias Biomedicas / Mestre em Ciências Médicas

Para a persecução desse objetivo, tomou-se como ponto de partida a afirmação que Jacques Lacan fez em As psicoses, seminário proferido em 1955-1956, de que tais distúrbios são específicos das psicoses, isto é, não existem nas neuroses. Contudo, uma neurose é explicada pela teoria do `recalque¿, conceito que designa o `mecanismo psíquico¿ neurótico e, por consequência, não dá conta da psicose. Como, então, tais "distúrbios" permitiriam depreender a particularidade do `mecanismo psíquico¿ específico da psicose? Mais especificamente, como, a partir dessa noção de `distúrbios da linguagem¿, pode-se depreender a trajetória de construção da concepção de que o `mecanismo¿ psicótico é a `foraclusão do Nome-do-Pai¿? Para dar conta dessa questão, tomou-se como base de estudos a versão estenografada do seminário, que apresenta diferenças relevantes em relação à versão editada e estabelecida por Jacques-Allain Miller. O resultado foi o de que não são os distúrbios "da linguagem" ou "na ordem da linguagem" que especificam a particularidade das psicoses, mas sim os `distúrbios de alienação na ordem da linguagem¿. A partir da noção de `alienação¿ nota-se que o modelo para se pensar a psicose está fundamentado na obra freudiana no modelo neurótico. O empreendimento lacaniano, ao propor que há tal `foraclusão¿, é o de propor um exercício de reflexão que conceba o `mecanismo¿ estruturante da psicose no momento da própria constituição do sujeito. / Abstract: The main goal of this dissertation is to study `language disorders¿ in psychotic speech as indexes of the specific way the psychotic subject inhabits language. My starting point is Jacques Lacan¿s claim that such disturbances are specific to psychoses, i.e., they don¿t exist in neuroses (see The Psychoses, seminar delivered in 1955-1956). Yet a neurotic affection is explained by the theory of `repression¿, a concept that designates the neurotic `psychic mechanism¿ and thereby does not apply to psychosis. How then such "disturbances" would allow for the apprehension of the particularities of the specific "psychic mechanism" of psychosis? More precisely: Beginning from the notion of `language disturbances¿, how one is to discern the trajectory of production of the conception according to which the psychotic `mechanism¿ is the foreclosure of the Nome-of-the-Father? In inquiring this question, this study relied on the seminar¿s stenographed version, which substantially differs from Jacques-Allain Miller¿s edited version. The conclusion is that what explains the particularities of psychoses is neither disorders "of language¿ nor "in the order of language" but rather the "disorders of alienation in the order of language". From the notion of `alienation¿, we may infer that the model to thinking psychosis is premised on the neurotic paradigm of Freud¿s work. In suggesting the abovementioned notion of `foreclosure¿, Lacan instead proposed an exercise of thinking that conceives of psychosis¿ structuring `mechanism¿ in the moment of the subject¿s proper constitution / Doutorado / Linguistica / Doutor em Linguística

Theiss (MA) -- Stellenbosch Univeristy, 1989 / ABSICHT: Wie der Mensch bliekt, wird auf direkte Art und Weise von seinem Menschsein bestimmt. 1m Grunde genommen, ist sein Blick seinem "sieh in dieser Welt Stellen", seinem "sieh in dieser Welt Sehen, Denken und Fiihlen", seinem "in dieser Welt gesehen, gedacht und gefiihlt werden" - kurz gesagt seiner "ihn determinierenden Auffassungswelt" gleiehzusetzen. Wenn das so ist, dann ist die Psychoanalyse das geeignete Instrument, den Blick eines Subjekts zu erforschen. Die Entwicklung der Psychoanalyse - von Freud bis zu Guattari und Deleuze - verUiuft parallel zur Anderung des menschlichen SelbstversUindnisses. Die Psychoanalytiker, die den Blick umschreiben, definieren ihn gemaB ihrer fortschreitenden Kenntnisse so, wie sie sieh zur Zeit der Formulierung der Theorie erblicken. Anders gesagt, die Definition' des Blickes ist nicht vom blickenden Subjekt zu trennen. Ich werde in meinem Ansatz die Problematik des Blickes erUiutern und die Blicke der Subjekte - Rainer Werner Fassbinder in seinem Film "Die Ehe der Maria Braun" und Doris Dorrie in ihrem Film "Manner" - als entweder neurotisch oder schizophren einstufen. Die Syntax des Films erlaubt es mir, als Leser des Films Riickschliisse auf das Wesen des Blickes des Regisseurs bzw. der Regisseurin zu ziehen. Denn die Syntax des Films ist meiner Meinung nach dem Blick des Regisseurs bzw. der Regisseurin gleichzusetzen. Die Syntax des Films kann anhand der psychoanalytischen Theorien erkHirt werden. Habe ich Klarheit tiber die verwendete Syntax, so habe ich Klarheit tiber den Blick des Regisseurs bzw. der . Regisseurin. Fassbinder und Dorrie blicken auf (bzw. lesen) Texte. Er blickt auf (bzw. liest) Maria Braun. Dorrie blickt auf (bzw. liest) Julius und Stefan (d.h. die Manner in "Manner"). Ich will untersuchen, ob es eine Beziehung zwischen dem Akt des Blickens und dem Akt des Lesens gibt. Es gilt die Frage, inwiefern das Lesen den Blick bzw. inwiefern der Blick das Lesen bedingt. AnschlieBend will ich die soziale Bedingtheit des Blickes bzw. des Lesens untersuchen.

As with social anxiety, people with high social appearance anxiety (SAA) might experience increased perceptions of being looked at by others and elevated levels of self-focussed evaluative attention (SFEA). This study tested whether individuals with high SAA perceive more people look at them than do those with low SAA, and whether SFEA increases this perception. A sample of 52 low SAA and 48 high SAA participants completed questionnaires and experimental tasks online. Participants estimated the proportion of people looking at them in numerous matrices of faces. A control task of matrices of clocks was used. SFEA was experimentally manipulated. Those high in SAA estimated more people looking at them, and reported higher trait self-focussed attention. Increasing SFEA increased these individual’s estimates of faces looking at them but did not affect perceptions of non- social stimuli. Implications for clinical interventions and the body image literature are discussed. Future lines of research are recommended.

This study explored the relationship between life events and central need schemas(i.e. basic assumptions about oneself and the world). The hypotheses tested were 1) people who have experienced traumatic stress will have more negative or disrupted schemas in areas of central need than those who haven't experienced traumatic stress, 2) the schemas of lesbian women, gay men, and bisexual men and women who have not experienced significant traumatic stress differ from those of heterosexual men and women who have not experienced significant traumatic stress, and 3) one's sexual identity is a variable in how one responds to traumatic stress. Results did not support the first or third hypotheses. However, support was found for the second hypothesis. Lack of support for two of the hypotheses is believed to be due to the specific data analysis used for the study A discussion of the results and suggestions for future research are then presented. / Department of Counseling Psychology and Guidance Services

The present study was undertaken to determine whether significant differences exist between delinquent and non-delinquent adolescent females in terms of three personality variables, specifically: (1) neuroticism, (2) extroversion, and (3) self concept. An underlying assumption of the study was that all three of the variables would be significantly different between the delinquent and the non-delinquent populations. The expectation was that delinquents would score high in neuroticism and extroversion and low in self concept while the non-delinquents would manifest moderate to low scores in neuroticism and extroversion and would score significantly higher than the delinquent group in the area of self concept.The non-delinquent population was selected from a public community school and consisted of 66 subjects who were chosen by their teachers, counselors, and administrators as representing model school citizens. The delinquent population was selected from three separate correctional institutions within the state of Indiana. This population was composed of 51 girls who had been adjudicated delinquent by the court. The total of 117 subjects was ultimately reduced to two groups of 40, giving a total of 80 subjects who met the following criteria: (1) they were females between the ages of 13 and 18, (2) they were of the Caucasian race, (3) they were not suspected of having brain damage or of being functionally retarded, psychotic, borderline psychotic, or dyslexic, (4) they were able to read at the sixth grade level or above, and (5) they met the delinquent or non-delinquent criteria.The Tennessee Self Concept Scale, Eysenck Personality Inventory, and the Wide Range Vocatulary Test were administered to the subjects.The data gathered from the Tennessee Self Concept Scale and the Eysenck Personality Inventory were treated by one-way multivariate analysis of variance, univariate analysis of variance, and Pearson product moment correlation coefficients. Significant correlations were found within each group between the variables of self concept and neuroticism, and the correlations for these variables were negative indicating an inverse relationship. The directions of these variables, as indicated by their group means, were high neuroticism and low self concept for the delinquent group and high self concept and low neuroticism for the non--delinquent group. There was a high positive correlation between the variables of self concept and extroversion among the non-delinquent group; however, the correlation of these two variables for the delinquent group was not significant. Likewise, the variables of neuroticism and extroversion had a significant negative correlation for the non-delinquent population, but did not show a significant correlation for the delinquent population.Univariate analysis of variance indicated that self concept, as measured by the Total P of the Tennessee Self Concept Scale, was significant at the p c.0001 level in differentiating between delinquent and non-delinquent adolescent females. Neuroticism as measured by the Eysenck Personality Inventory was significant at the p c.005 level in differentiating between delinquent and non-delinquent girls. Extroversion was not a significant variable in differentiating between groups.Within the limitations of the study, it was concluded that low self concept and high neuroticism were traits highly characteristic of the delinquent population while high self concept and low neuroticism were traits which were highly characteristic of the non-delinquent population.
