The aim of this research is to show theoretical similarities between emotional intelligence and self-actualisation. The empirical results give evidence of the relationship between these two concepts. An assessment battery consisting of the BarOn Emotional Quotient Inventory (BarOn EQ-i), an emotional intelligence instrument and the Personal Orientation Inventory (POI), a self-actualisation instrument was used to measure the concepts of emotional intelligence and self-actualisation. A sample of 71 employees was assessed using psychometric tests and a biographical questionnaire. The data was collected over a period of four months. The statistical methods used in this research focus on quantitative measurement. Calculations are mainly done with t-tests and Pearson's product moment correlation coefficient. The empirical results of this research give partial evidence of the correlation between emotional intelligence and self-actualisation. Positive relationships between various factors of emotional intelligence and self-actualisation were found. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M.A.(Industrial Psychology)

We have witnessed a significant increase in the demand for psychological care in public and private health services. Given this scenario, this work aimed to investigate, through Winnicott clinical cases and vignettes of my professional practice, the specificities, the possible dialogues with the parents and the therapeutic possibilities of the clinic with adolescents, from a Winnicottian perspective. To this end, a study was made of the emergence of the notion of adolescence, as we conceive it today and of the maturational process characteristic of this phase, from the Freudian postulates to the formulation of contemporary psychoanalysts, with special emphasis on Winnicottian theory, for contemplating these aspects more comprehensively. It was evidenced that the psychoanalytic process can offer subsidies to help adolescents in their difficulties and contribute to maturity at this stage. The professional who has the purpose of providing care for adolescents needs to prepare for this type of work. The winnicottian clinic has as main specificities the need to know the process of maturation, because the disturbances are understood as paralyzes in the course of this process; the expansion of the analytical setting, to include the family, the school, among others; the use of management; the provision of a facilitating environment for maturation; besides the care of the analyst with his own maturity. Follow-up with parents is valued and carried out wherever possible because they are understood as enabling environments for maturation for their children. The therapeutic possibilities vary according to the needs and possibilities of each case, being related to the resumption of developments that were interrupted and the propitiation of the maturation inherent to that phase. Because it is qualitative research, these data can not be generalized, however, it has been shown that the possibility of helping young people in this phase can contribute so that they can develop their true self to live creatively and feel that their life is full of meanings / Atualmente, as transformações decorrentes da globalização, do avanço tecnológico e das novas condições de ser e de viver têm gerado inúmeras dificuldades que se agravam a cada dia, levando a um aumento preocupante de psicopatologias acometendo adolescentes no mundo todo. Temos presenciado um significativo aumento na procura por atendimento psicológico nos serviços de saúde da rede pública e privada. Diante desse cenário, este trabalho teve por objetivo investigar, por meio de casos clínicos de Winnicott e vinhetas de minha prática profissional, as especificidades, as possíveis interlocuções com os pais e as possibilidades terapêuticas da clínica com adolescentes, numa perspectiva winnicottiana. Para isso, partiu-se de um estudo sobre o surgimento da noção de adolescência, como a concebemos hoje e do processo maturacional característico dessa fase, desde os postulados freudianos até formulações de psicanalistas contemporâneos, com especial ênfase na teoria winnicottiana, por contemplar esses aspectos de modo mais abrangente. Evidenciou-se que o processo psicanalítico pode oferecer subsídios para ajudar os adolescentes em suas dificuldades e contribuir com o amadurecimento nessa fase. O profissional que tem o propósito de oferecer cuidados aos adolescentes precisa se preparar para esse tipo de trabalho. A clínica winnicottiana possui como principais especificidades a necessidade de se conhecer o processo de amadurecimento, pois os distúrbios são entendidos como paralizações no decurso desse processo; a ampliação do setting analítico, para abarcar a família, a escola, entre outros; o uso do manejo; o oferecimento de ambiente de facilitação para o amadurecimento; além do cuidado do analista com o próprio amadurecimento. O acompanhamento com os pais é valorizado e realizado sempre que possível porque eles são entendidos como ambientes facilitadores do amadurecimento para seus filhos. As possibilidades terapêuticas variam de acordo com as necessidades e possibilidades de cada caso, estando relacionadas à retomada de desenvolvimentos que estavam interrompidos e à propiciação do amadurecimento inerente a essa fase. Por se tratar de pesquisa qualitativa esses dados não podem ser generalizados, no entanto, mostrou-se que a possibilidade de se ajudar os jovens nessa fase pode contribuir para que possam desenvolver seu self verdadeiro para viver criativamente e sentir que a sua vida é cheia de significações

No. of bitstreams: 1 Sonia Maria da Silva Balão.pdf: 990062 bytes, checksum: d661de8299c0d3453ea314d82c5dbbd6 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-06-20 / Nowadays, a great number of young people present themselves in clinic with complaints of a lonely and isolated personal life, with an affective-social withdrawal and impoverishment, sadness, hopelessness, anguish, internal guilt, helplessness, lack of will to live, cranky, self agressive and self-multilation behaviors. These factors, beyond worrying, point to pathology and to complex emotional difficulties. Another common feature of these young patients is to dedicate a lot of time to the virtual world instead of real life. On the social network, they have a group of lots of friends and dedicate a lot of their time with unknown people. This clear dissociation between the cloistered real life and the active virtual life demands questioning the social network role and think its excessive use as a way of psychological defense. Therefore, through the case study of a 16 years old young woman (when she begins the analysis), this research project proposes to understand this dissociation and its possible relation of the phenomenon to some psychopathology, specially depression, covering the contradictory way of the young people to have a depressive, apathetic and isolated existence in real life and manifest themselves vitally, interactively and intensely in social networks. The theorical basis of this investigation is the Winnicott’s Theory of Personal Maturity and the focus was on the articulation between the clinical case and the theory through the theoretical-methodological research and the research-listening. Reports from the patience, written by the psychologist during her three first years of psychological treatment and WhatsApp and Facebook messages given by the patience were all the valid corpus for this investigation. By avoiding contact with the loneliness that her illness aroused, the patient presented herself to treatment incapacitated to be alone and think about herself. Because of the lack of limits, she made use of the virtual world and isolated herself from shared reality. With psychic action from the analytic process, she started to stay connected to the cyber world while she needs, returning to the real world whenever she feels strengthened. Therefore, based on the analysis of the results of this clinical case, the use of communication in social networks by young depressive people is based on a paradox: the defense of the maniac type by the performance of the false self, to avoid depressive psychopathology, and, at the same time, the attempt to be cured by the new possibilities when the patient can experience the false self in consigning thru it the emersion of the true self / Atualmente, muitos jovens apresentam-se em consultório com queixas de uma vida pessoal solitária e isolada, com retraimento e empobrecimento afetivo-social, tristeza, desesperança, angústia, culpabilidade interna, desamparo, falta de vontade de viver e comportamentos irritadiços, autoagressivos e de automutilação, fatores esses que, além de preocupantes, apontam para uma possível patologia e para dificuldades emocionais complexas. Outra característica comum a esses jovens pacientes é dedicarem muito tempo ao mundo virtual em detrimento do real. Nas redes sociais, têm um grande grupo de amigos virtuais e dedicam muito tempo à interação com desconhecidos. Essa clara dissociação entre a vida real enclausurada e a vida virtual ativa impõe questionar o papel das redes sociais como uma forma de defesa psicológica. Frente a isso, a partir do estudo do caso clínico de uma jovem que, no início da análise, tinha 16 anos, esta pesquisa propõe compreender essa dissociação e a possível relação do fenômeno com alguma psicopatologia, em especial a depressão, abrangendo o modo contraditório dos jovens de ter um existir depressivo, apático e isolado na vida real e de se manifestarem de maneira vitalizada, interativa e intensa nas redes sociais. O fundamento teórico deste estudo é a Teoria do Amadurecimento Pessoal de Winnicott e o enfoque principal foi a articulação do caso clínico com a teoria por meio da pesquisa teórico-metodológica (pesquisa-investigação) e da pesquisa-escuta. Relatos da paciente anotados pela psicóloga em seus três primeiros anos de tratamento e mensagens de WhatsApp e de Facebook fornecidas pela paciente constituíram o corpus de base da pesquisa. Ao evitar contato com a solidão que seu adoecimento despertava, a paciente apresentou-se para tratamento incapaz de se manter sozinha e refletir sobre si mesma e, por não encontrar limites, fez uso patológico do mundo virtual, afastando-se da realidade compartilhada. Com a evolução psíquica a partir do processo analítico, ela passou a se conectar ao mundo cibernético dentro de sua necessidade, retornando ao mundo real sempre que se sentia fortalecida. Desse modo, a partir da análise desse caso clínico, chegou-se ao resultado de que o uso da comunicação nas redes sociais pelos jovens depressivos baseia-se num paradoxo: a defesa maníaca pela atuação do falso self, a fim de evitar o sofrimento da psicopatologia depressiva, e, ao mesmo tempo, a tentativa de cura por meio de novas experiências que o paciente pode vivenciar quando o falso self cede e consente a emersão do self verdadeiro

[Truncated abstract] Early psychosocial stress is conjectured to place individuals on a developmental trajectory leading to earlier pubertal maturation, earlier initiation of sexual activity and earlier reproduction than those with less early psychosocial stress. This may have an adaptive function to minimise the chances of lineage extinction, which is more likely in environments of high risk and uncertainty. Previous studies have examined the relationship between early psychosocial stress and life history stages (e.g., age at puberty, age at first sex and age at first birth). However, these studies are limited in that they either examined only a few early psychosocial stressors, examined psychosocial stress relatively late in individuals' lives and/or were restricted to women. Thus, the first aim of the present thesis was to examine these findings in both genders using a measure of early psychosocial stress comprised of 24 categories of retrospectively assessed stressors (e.g., sexual abuse, physical abuse, parental divorce, rated quality of family life) during the first 7 years of life. It was hypothesised that individuals with high, as opposed to low, levels of early psychosocial stress would pass through life history stages earlier. The second aim was to examine how early psychosocial stress affects characteristics associated with life history traits, such as individuals? length, number and type of heterosexual relationships, number of sex partners, adult attachment styles, number of pregnancy terminations, and attitudes and behaviours towards contraceptive use. High levels of early psychosocial stress were predicted to be associated with characteristics reflecting a quantitative, as opposed to a qualitative, reproductive approach (e.g., more sex partners, more short-term relationships, insecure attachment styles). The third aim was to examine how early psychosocial stress is related to mate choice because numerous studies have identified what traits individuals' desire in a mate but not whether early psychosocial stress affects these choices. ... Early psychosocial stress generally had no effects on age at first sex, age at first birth, the number of pregnancy terminations, and mate choices. On the other hand, individuals with high, as opposed to low, levels of early psychosocial stress were more likely to be insecurely attached, had more short-term sexual relationships (men only), had more extra-pair copulations, were more likely to be divorced/separated, had a greater lifetime number of sex partners (men only), and had lower self-rated frequencies of contraception use. Overall, some of these findings are consistent with life history theory, which suggests that individuals with high levels of early psychosocial stress (i.e., those living in environments of high risk and uncertainty) should reach biological maturation earlier, engage in behaviours that facilitate earlier and more frequent reproduction to minimise the chances of lineage extinction. Implications for public health, limitations of the present study and future directions are also discussed.
