Sensation-seeking, locus of control and self-efficacy correlates of adventure-based trainees : a comparative studyLe Roux, Hermias Nel 04 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2014. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: There has been an increase in the popularity of adventure programming over the past few years, with the result that the practice of high-risk recreational activities is growing phenomenally. This study examined how students who are enrolled in a full time adventure education programme involving high-risk recreational activities would differ in terms of sensation-seeking, locus of control and self-efficacy when compared to their non-participative peers. The research group devoted a whole year towards an adventure-based gap year programme that utilises high-risk recreational activities as a core aspect of the programme’s curriculum. It was hypothesised that the research group will measure higher in sensation-seeking, locus of control and self-efficacy when compared to the research equivalent group. For this cross- sectional quantitative study, the research group consisted of 25 students participating in the high-risk iALA recreational adventure programme. The research equivalent group consisted of 34 first year university students. The two sample groups were assessed in terms of their attribute differences on Zuckerman’s Sensation-Seeking Scale, Sherer’s General Self-efficacy Scale, and Rotter’s Internal-External Locus of Control Scale.
MANOVA and ANOVA analyses were performed in order to analyse the data. The study indicated that there was a significant difference in sensation-seeking between the two samples. There was, however, no significant difference in levels of locus of control and self-efficacy between the two samples. The study’s significant findings support trends in previous studies concerning greater sensation-seeking among participants of high-risk recreation activities. Important considerations for the results obtained are provided together with implications for further research in this field. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Avontuurprogramme het die afgelope paar jaar in gewildheid toegeneem en het tot gevolg dat daar al hoe meer van hoë-risiko ontspanningsaktiwiteite gebruik gemaak word. Hierdie studie ondersoek hoe studente wat aan hoë-risiko ontspanningsaktiwiteite deelneem, verskil ten opsigte van die soeke na sensasie, lokus van kontrole en self-effektiwiteit in vergelyking met hul niedeelnemende portuurs. Die eksperimentele groep het vir ʼn jaar deelgeneem aan ʼn gapingsjaar-avontuurprogram met hoë-risiko ontspanningsaktiwiteite wat ʼn kernsaspek van die kurrikulum uitmaak. Die hipotese was dat die eksperimentele groep hoër sou meet in die soeke na sensasie, lokus van kontrole en self-effektiwiteit as die kontrolegroep. Vir die doel van hierdie kwantitatiewe studie het die eksperimentele groep uit 25 studente bestaan wat aan hoë-risiko ontspanningsaktiwiteite deelgeneem het gedurende die gapingsjaar-avontuurprogram. Die kontrolegroep het uit 34 eerstejaar universiteitstudente bestaan. Ten einde die verskil tussen die twee groepe te assesseer, is Zuckerman se Sensation-Seeking Scale, Sherer se General self-efficacy scale, en Rotter se Internal external locus of control scale gebruik.
ʼn MANOVA en ANOVA is gebruik om die data te analiseer. Die studie het getoon dat daar ʼn betekenisvolle verskil tussen die twee groepe was ten opsigte van die soeke na sensasie. Daar was egter geen betekenisvolle verskil in die vlakke van lokus van kontrole en self-effektiwiteit tussen die twee groepe nie. Bevindings van die huidige studie oor die soeke na sensasie het bevindings van vorige studies rakende die soeke na sensasie en hoë-risiko ontspanningsaktiwiteite ondersteun. Belangrike afleidings kan gemaak word uit die resultate wat verkry is wat moontlikhede bied vir verdere navorsing in hierdie veld.

Supervisão de supervisão: grande angular fenomenológica na cartografia de práticas clínicas em contextos institucionais e comunitários / Supervision of supervision: a phenomenological upward look toward the cartography of clinical practices at the institutional and community contextsBraga, Tatiana Benevides Magalhães 24 September 2010 (has links)
Esta pesquisa investigou a prática clínica de Supervisão de Supervisão, espaço de discussão entre supervisores clínicos de diferentes projetos de atenção psicológica em instituições e comunidades. Utilizando uma abordagem fenomenológica, a investigação se baseou numa cartografia clínica desta prática, abrangendo a historicidade de sua constituição e o contexto no qual se mostra seu desenrolar, apresentado em cenas de supervisão de supervisão relativas a diferentes cenários sociais em que se desenvolveram modalidades de prática psicológica. O diálogo dos supervisores desvelou alguns eixos teóricos de discussão atinentes à práxis desenvolvida, que foram abordados por meio de ensaios, buscando dialogar com o modo como tais temas emergentes foram apresentados nas supervisões de supervisão e refletir sobre seu sentido. O primeiro eixo abordado foi a cartografia, em relação à qual se buscou contemplar aproximações e diferenças entre a prática realizada e outros autores que discutem o tema, em especial aqueles utilizados como referência pelos supervisores na compreensão de suas práticas, delineando-se uma cartografia clínica de orientação fenomenológica. O segundo tema apresentado refere-se às relações entre psicologia e fenomenologia, quanto ao qual o ensaio procura demonstrar a pertinência do olhar fenomenológico na psicologia a partir da historicidade destes campos. Em relação ao terceiro eixo temático a práxis psicológica realizada nos contextos institucionais e comunitários o ensaio aborda duas vertentes interligadas. Discute-se, por um lado, a origem de um entrelaçamento entre sujeito e contexto social a partir das interdisciplinaridades, pluridisciplinaridades e transdisciplinaridades originadas no questionamento do papel da ciência e da universidade a partir do pós-guerra. Por outro lado, o ensaio trata da inserção da clínica em cenários externos ao consultório particular enquanto articulada à falência do modelo de clínica liberal e aos movimentos políticos pela construção de direitos de cidadania, no panorama brasileiro ocorridos em especial na saúde pública e na saúde mental. No tocante ao quarto tema, o lugar do aconselhamento psicológico a partir da fenomenologia existencial, o ensaio versa sobre a compreensão da atenção psicológica como possibilidade de designação pertinente à práxis, abrangendo o olhar sobre a experiência enquanto modo de habitar o mundo. Finalmente, quanto ao quinto tema, as relações entre clínica e política são discutidas no intuito de designar o espaço clínico enquanto pré-político. A partir destas discussões, a supervisão de supervisão é compreendida como uma grande angular, em que se interpenetram cinco dimensões: investigativo-cartográfica (relacionada à compreensão/interpretação dos espaços internos e externos em que ocorre a prática), prático-teórica (movimento de compreensão da experiência e sua interpretação pela palavra), clínica (diálogo que permite o entrelaçamento de significações e experiências), pedagógica (a aprendizagem que se realiza no nomear a experiência, na atribuição de sentido, na multiplicação dos sentidos possíveis e na compreensão do processo de aprendizagem clínica) e ético-política (na construção de referenciais a partir dos quais é possível compreender o mundo e agir sobre ele) / This work intended to investigate Supervision of Supervision as a clinical practice for discussion between clinical supervisors from psychological attention institutions and communities different projects. By using a existential phenomenological approach, the investigation was based upon a clinical cartography that shows the history of its constitution and contexts where it happens: Supervision of Supervisions different scenes concerning to different social scenarios where the psychological practice took place. The supervisors conversation allowed disclosing five theoretical axes for reflexions about the praxis. Such axes were explored by essays that dialogue with the mode by which they were presented at the supervisions. The first axe presents the cartography, relating it to the practice developed and some thoughts by authors reffered by the supervisors to comprehend their action in supervision: a clinical cartography in a existential phenomenological perspective was revealed. The second theme refers to relations between psychology and phenomenology, to demonstrate the property of the phenomenological optics for psychology when the historicity of those practical fields is taken into account. The third axe deals with the psychological practice in institutional and communitarian contexts, approaching to interconnected trends. By one side, it discusses the original interconnection between subject and social context, concerning interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary and their post-war role as in science as at the university. On the other hand, the third essay deals with the clinics insertion in scenarios, others than the traditional private practice, model inspired by the Brazilian political liberal movements for citizens rights specially for Public Health and Mental Health. Yet, the fourth axe explores counseling psychology by the existential phenomenology, in respect to the comprehension of psychological attention as a proper designation for that kind of praxis, encompassing experience as a human mode to dwell in the world. Finally, the fifth theme discusses the relations between clinic and politics in other to designate the clinical context as pre-political. The conclusion points to supervision of supervision as a great angular lens, where five dimensions interrelate themselves: the investigative-cartographic one (comprehension/interpretation of internal and external practice spaces); the practicaltheoretical one (movement for experience comprehension and interpretation by the speech); the clinical one (dialogue that propitiates interrelations between experience and meaning); the pedagogic one (learning by sense attribution while nominating experience, expanding possible meanings to the clinical learning); and the ethical-political dimension (referential construction that provides the comprehension of the world and to act upon it)

Women's experience of their sense of identity at work : a phenomenological studySterley, Beverley Anne 02 1900 (has links)
Although women increasingly contribute their labour to an ever-burgeoning
workplace, little is understood about their roles and sense of identity at work.
Adopting a phenomenological approach to this study will allow the researcher to
discover what women’s experience of their sense of identity at work encompasses.
Furthermore, a review of the contemporary literature, and a phenomenological
approach to the study employing semi-structured interviews and an
explication of the protocols using the ‘modified’ Stevick-Colaizzi-Keen method
(Creswell, 1998), may be used to explore women’s experience of their sense of
identity in the workplace. Recommendations may be made for future research
and organisational practice.
The main findings indicated, inter alia, that the participants expressed their
sense of identity at work from a ‘collective’ or social identity orientation. This
finding also supports various feminist researchers’ viewpoints that women may
develop a unique sense of identity relative to the environment in which they find
themselves (Ely, 1994; Hakim, 1996). Themes that arose from the interviews
with the participants included the concerns women express universally to a
greater extent, yet included their interests, abilities, traits and material characteristics
to a lesser extent (Ashforth & Mael, 1989; Hogg & Turner, 1987). The
study findings also questioned psychology-based “person-centred” ideas about
women’s relationships with other women at work, and added credence to the
supposition that the demographic composition of an organisation may influence
an individual’s experiences at work (Ely, 1994, p. 203). Furthermore, as social
v
identities are more significant in organisations, due to the incidence of social
groups (Fisher, 1986; Mortimer & Simmons, 1978; Van Maanen, 1976), it would
appear that as fewer women are employed in management and the upper
echelons of organisations, they would therefore not benefit from being involved
in the social environment of work, and would therefore not be in a position to
adopt the identity of their counterparts (Becker & Carper, 1956). The contribution
of this research to understanding women’s experience of their sense of identity,
and the provision of a basic framework in this regard, may assist female employees,
and their employers and managers, in their relationships at work, and
in this way improve the employment prospects and retention of women. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M.A. (Industrial and Organisational Psychology)

Previous issue date: 2008-02-15 / It s possible to identify important phenomena to be approached regarding the Feeling of Inadequacy (FI), characterized for the feeling of being unequal or different from other people or diverse situations. For this, the present work keeps its attention directed toward the relation between subject and sociocultural context, with the objective of understanding the phenomenon of feeling inadequate and how one configures one s self according to the possible psychological consequences of the situation. The research was qualitative in nature and developed itself based on the phenomenological method style of Merleau-Ponty. The work initiated of theoretical form, through the analysis of popular literature, diagnostic manuals and indexed scientific bibliography. The second stage started from the descriptive-speculative analysis of opened and participative interviews with three adults. Each one described in their own way the presence of the FI in their lives. Notwithstanding the details of the phenomenon, three basic psychological responses have been identified: 1) the Levelling of Subjectivity (LS), characterized by self-questioning, isolation, solitude and, mainly, by the attempt to modify one s self in regards towards the sociocultural context; 2) the Levelling of the Objectivity (LO), in which are identified higher levels of aggressiveness, questioning of the sociocultural context and the possible attempt to modify it, which difficults, on the other hand, contact with subjective aspects; 3) the Sense of Inadequacy (SsI), position in which the subject assimilates the FI of reflexive and creative form, evidencing the importance of the playful character of the existence. The study revealed a possibility of transit between LS and LO, inverting the focus of the leveling, but not necessarily indicating any development of significant insights on the subject s part. / ? poss?vel identificar fen?menos importantes a serem abordados no que diz respeito ao Sentimento de Inadequa??o (SI), caracterizado pelo sentimento de desigualdade ou diferen?a em rela??o a outras pessoas ou situa??es diversas. Para isso, o presente trabalho mant?m sua aten??o voltada para a rela??o entre sujeito e contexto sociocultural, com o objetivo de compreender o fen?meno de sentir-se inadequado e de como se configuram os poss?veis desdobramentos psicol?gicos dessa situa??o. A pesquisa, de car?ter qualitativo, se embasa no m?todo fenomenol?gico segundo o estilo de Merleau-Ponty. O trabalho se iniciou de forma te?rica, atrav?s da an?lise de literatura popular, manuais diagn?sticos e bibliografia cient?fica indexada. A segunda etapa ocorreu a partir da an?lise descritivo-especulativa de entrevistas participativas abertas realizadas com tr?s adultos. Todos descreveram ao seu modo a presen?a do SI em suas vidas. Al?m de detalhes sobre o fen?meno, foram identificados tr?s desdobramentos psicol?gicos b?sicos: 1) o Aplainamento da Subjetividade (AS), caracterizado pelo autoquestionamento, isolamento, solid?o e, principalmente, pela tentativa de o sujeito de se modificar em fun??o do contexto sociocultural; 2) o Aplainamento da Objetividade (AO), no qual se identificam n?veis de agressividade, questionamento do contexto sociocultural e a poss?vel tentativa de modific?-lo, dificultando, por outro lado, o contato com aspectos subjetivos; 3) o Senso de Inadequa??o (SsI), postura na qual o sujeito assimila o SI de forma reflexiva e criativa, evidenciando a import?ncia do car?ter l?dico da exist?ncia. Percebeu-se a possibilidade de tr?nsito entre o AS e o AO, invertendo o foco do aplainamento sem que necessariamente se desenvolvam reflex?es significativas.

Previous issue date: 2007-02-06 / The German philosopher Edmund Husserl (1859-1938), founding father of Phenomenology, was one of the most prominent thinkers of the 20th century, who not only influenced the philosophical trends of his time but also the sciences in general. Nevertheless, psychology was the science which strongly had direct influence of phenomenology which, in its turn, provided the possibility of developing a phenomenological psychology. The aim of this thesis is to (re)constitute, from a historical-critical point of view, the conception of phenomenological psychology in Husserl s last work: The Crisis of European Sciences and the Transcendental Phenomenology (Die Krisis der europ?ischen Wissenchaften und die transzendentale Ph?nomenologie. Eine Einleitung in die ph?nomenologische Philosophie). At present, psychologists are developing a large number of versions of phenomenological psychology, particularly in Brazil; however, none of them have rigorously been based on Husserl s concepts. Thus, in order to have an understanding of what constitutes to Husserl a phenomenological psychology, we present, to start with, a brief introduction to the transcendental phenomenology, explaining the variations of the phenomenological method (i. e. phenomenological levels). After that, we point out the most meaningful aspects of Husserl s last piece of writing, concentrating our efforts on the revelation the philosopher makes concerning a crisis of the sciences and of reason, as well as his phenomenological criticism on epistemology of Psychology. At last, following Husserl s analyses of phenomenology and psychology, we conclude that the conception of phenomenological psychology will constitute a universal science of human beings whose object of study is the animistic being. This science will have basic functions such as: a) the rebuilding of the scientific psychology and the explanation of the psychological concepts; b) the constitution of a universal science of the psychic; c) the description of the intentional experiences and d) be a propaedeutic discipline for the transcendental phenomenology. For Husserl, the authentic and genuine conception of the phenomenological psychology is important to the psychologists since that it is through the development of this discipline that they will recover the subjectivity as the original source of human life and its correlation with the world-life. / O fil?sofo alem?o Edmund Husserl (1859-1938), fundador da Fenomenologia, foi um dos principais pensadores do s?culo XX, que influenciou tanto as correntes filos?ficas de seu tempo quanto as ci?ncias em geral. No entanto, a psicologia foi a que mais recebeu influ?ncia direta da fenomenologia, a qual proporcionou a essa ci?ncia a possibilidade de desenvolver uma psicologia fenomenol?gica. A finalidade dessa tese ? (re) constituir, a partir de uma leitura hist?rico-cr?tica, a concep??o de psicologia fenomenol?gica na ?ltima obra de Husserl: A Crise das Ci?ncias Europ?ias e a Fenomenologia Transcendental (Die Krisis der europ?ischen Wissenchaften und die transzendentale Ph?nomenologie. Eine Einleitung in die ph?nomenologische Philosophie). Atualmente, os psic?logos est?o desenvolvendo muitas vers?es de psicologia fenomenol?gica, principalmente no Brasil, por?m nenhuma delas tem se fundamentado rigorosamente nas conceitua??es de Husserl. Assim, para termos uma compreens?o do que constitui para Husserl uma psicologia fenomenol?gica, apresentamos, de in?cio, uma breve introdu??o ? fenomenologia transcendental, explicitando as varia??es do m?todo fenomenol?gico (n?veis fenomenol?gicos). Em seguida, destacamos os pontos principais do ?ltimo escrito de Husserl, concentrando-nos na den?ncia que o fil?sofo faz de uma crise das ci?ncias e da raz?o bem como sua cr?tica fenomenol?gica ? epistemologia da Psicologia. Por fim, seguindo as an?lises de Husserl sobre a fenomenologia e a psicologia, conclu?mos que a concep??o de psicologia fenomenol?gica se constituir? em uma ci?ncia universal do seres humanos cujo objeto de estudo ? o ser an?mico. Esta ci?ncia tem como fun??es b?sicas: a) a reformula??o da psicologia cient?fica; o esclarecimento dos conceitos psicol?gicos; b) a constitui??o de uma ci?ncia universal do ps?quico; c) a descri??o das viv?ncias intencionais e; d) ser uma disciplina proped?utica ? fenomenologia transcendental. Para Husserl, a aut?ntica e genu?na concep??o de psicologia fenomenol?gica ? importante para os psic?logos, porque ? com o desenvolvimento dessa disciplina que eles poder?o resgatar a subjetividade como fonte origin?ria da vida humana e a sua correla??o com o mundo-da-vida (Lebenswelt).

Previous issue date: 2010-06-21 / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / The aim of this work is to understand in a phenomenological perspective, the
contribution of the practice of Vipassana meditation for the development of the way
of being present of the therapist. Considering that the trainning of the therapist goes
beyond the acquisition of theoretical knowledge, which also includes several
personal processes that contribute to the unique way to become a therapist, I retake
in this dissertation to my personal journey as a therapist and practitioner of
Vipassana meditation. In a phenomenological perspective I focused on the
experiences of meditation in a process of immersion and distance, which allowed me
to reflect and express the effects of meditation on my personal way of being a
therapist. Based on the description of my experiences in meditation practice as well
as on clinical vignettes, I point out how my way of being present with clients was
helped by the practice of meditation. This work shows that trainning in psychotherapy
is more than the learning of theorical knowledge, for it includes personal processes
which contribute to one s becoming a therapist / Esta dissertação visa compreender, em uma perspectiva fenomenológica, a
contribuição da prática da meditação vipássana para o desenvolvimento do modo de
estar presente do terapeuta. Retomo, nesta dissertação, o meu percurso pessoal
como terapeuta e praticante de meditação vipássana. Em uma perspectiva
fenomenológica, focalizo as experiências de meditação, em um processo de imersão
e distanciamento, que me permitiu refletir e expressar os efeitos da meditação no
meu modo de ser terapeuta. A partir do relato das minhas experiências na prática da
meditação e de vinhetas clínicas, evidencio como o meu modo de estar presente
com os clientes foi facilitado na prática da meditação. O trabalho evidencia que a
formação clínica vai além da aquisição de conhecimentos teóricos: inclui diferentes

Previous issue date: 2013-05-23 / With the great achievements of biotechnology, there has been an increase in the
number of kidney transplantations with live donors in Brazil. In the past decade, several
studies focused in quantifying, analysing and describing the aspects of live kidney donation.
Due to its complexity, it has conflicts in psychic, social, spiritual and existential aspects. The
present study aims to describe the fantastic world of donors with the choice of donating a
kidney and understand the possible choices of those who have performed the transplant.
Meaning to describe the life of each donor, this is a phenomenologic qualitative research with
an interview with six kidney donor adults living in São Paulo. The interviews were performed
by questions followed by a trigger question considering the participant s answer and
following its phenomenologic flow. For data analysis and synthesis, the following steps were
put into practice: description, reduction and phenomenon interpretation. The lack of a
psychological work on the donors was noticed before, during and after donation. Finally, this
essay reveals being a kidney donor has new challenges and confrontations to save the life of a
family member, in addition to the subjective aspects in the choices and decisions of being a
donor / Com o grande avanço da biotecnologia foi possível observar um crescente número de
transplantes renais com doadores vivos no Brasil. Na última década, muitos estudos têm se
preocupado em quantificar, analisar e descrever os aspectos do fenômeno da doação renal

espirituais e existenciais. Este estudo teve como objetivo descrever o que aconteceu no mundo
fenomenal de pessoas doadoras com a escolha de doar um rim e apreender as possibilidades
de escolhas dessas pessoas que realizaram o transplante. Com a intenção de descrever a
vivência interna de cada doador, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa de abordagem
fenomenológica entrevistando seis participantes adultos que realizaram a doação renal na
cidade de São Paulo. Foram realizadas entrevistas através da construção de perguntas
seguidas à pergunta disparadora, a partir do discurso do doador participante, seguindo o seu
fluxo de sentido fenomenológico. Para a análise e síntese dos dados, seguiu-se as seguintes
etapas: descrição, redução e interpretação fenomenológica. Apurou-se a insuficiência do
trabalho psicológico realizado com os doadores, que deve abranger as fases pré, durante e pós
doação. Por fim, o presente estudo revelou que a experiência de ser um doador renal apresenta
novos desafios e enfrentamentos em prol do desejo de salvar a vida de um familiar enfermo e
ainda reflete aspectos subjetivos que permeiam nas escolhas e decisões de ser doador renal

年輕思覺失調症患者及其主要照顧者主體經驗探究:關係取向觀點 / Exploring the Subjective Experiences in Young Schizophrenic Patients and Their Caregivers: From Relational Approach林孟瑤, Lin, Meng Yao Unknown Date (has links)
本研究之目的:一為探究年輕思覺失調症患者,於荒野臨界中如何形塑其此際體態;二為探討患者主要照顧者面對精神分裂體驗,從何接應患者,如何賦予其心理照顧意義。而後,以對元結構方式,探討患者及其照顧者雙方的心理經驗。研究者將患者「生命經驗」及其主要照顧者「照顧經驗」並置於現象場脈絡中,透過深度訪談,進行現象還原,以接近患者的內在經驗,反思照顧者照顧行動意義。方法上,本研究採取立意抽樣,以年輕思覺失調症患者與其主要照顧者作為研究對象,以配對方式進行資料蒐集,共三對受訪者(6位)接受訪談,患者部分為三位男性,而雙親照顧者部分為一位男性、兩位女性。資料蒐集後,以Henri Ellenberger之現象學分析方法(林耀盛,2002)分析。研究結果發現,年輕思覺失調症患者與其雙親主要照顧者共構之置身結構經驗的定向軌跡為:(1)超常隱匿於日常偽裝之下;(2)超常現身,即特異性經驗被看見,包含病者與雙親照顧者;(3)芻思心緒,反覆思索當前之事件;(4)經驗賦義,理解所發生的事,並給出位置,將其涵容於自我之中;(5)存有的流變:希望與憂懼心思。研究貢獻為在臨床心理實務上可能的幫助:可協助狀態逐漸穩定之個案進行經驗之整理,使其看見自己的狀態,而非僅僅使其擁有病識感、願意配合醫療處遇。而對雙親做為主要照顧者,可協助其釐清對於疾病狀態的未知,及自我照顧技藝的發展。礙於現實收案狀況,難以擴大取樣具異質性的思覺失調症患者,資料豐富度較為不足,為未來研究可改善之處。 / Purpose: This study is exploring (1) how the young schizophrenic patient perceived who he/she is in “the wilderness”; (2) how their caregivers faced with the schizophrenic experiences and constructed the meaning of caring; and (3) disclosing the patients and their caregiver’s mutual situated experiences by the meta-dyadic structure.
Methods: Taking a qualitative approach grounded in phenomenological psychology, this study conducted in-depth interviews by which researchers strived to observe, analyze and understand, from their first-person perspective, how they live under such situation. The participants were recruited through purposive sampling. Three patient-caregiver dyads (three male schizophrenic patients with one male and two female caregivers) were interviewed. The analysis step is adopted by Henri Ellenberger’s existential-phenomenological method (Yaw-Sheng Lin, 2002).
Results: Five over-arching themes emerged in the analysis on the transformation of experiences of suffering and caring. (1) Camouflaging the “extra-normal” in daily life. (2) “Extra-normal” is understood through the singularity in the daily life, including the patient and caregiver can “encounter” the unique experience. (3) Ruminative reflection about what happening? (4) Make sense of schizophrenic experiences through blurry the boundary between the normal and abnormal to integrate self into life orientation. (5) Existential experience as becoming process through the state of mind of “hope” and “Angst”.
Conclusions: The outcome is implicated in clinical practice: (1) Return to young schizophrenic patients’ lifeworld beyond psychopathology comprehension to articulate the intersubjective understanding relationships. (2) Help caregiver to understand their uncanny situation and cultivate the caring ethics for self and the other. Limitation, future research agenda and suggestion are discussed and proposed.

The meaning of becoming and being a member of a small and structured religious group|Stones, Christopher R January 1980 (has links)
The concern of this investigation is with the meaning of becoming as well as being a member of one of four specific small and structured religious communities. Three of these religious groups - the Jesus People, the Hare Krishna Devotees and the Maharaj Ji Premies - are considered to be nonconformist in terms of the life-style, value-system and theology each adopts within the mainstream social and theological ethos, while the fourth group - a sample of Catholic Seminarians - like the other groups is a small community with a structured life-style, but its life-style and value-system is not necessarily non-conformist. These groups are all to be found, amongst other places, in Johannesburg, apart from the Catholic Priests, all of whom were living in a seminary in Pretoria. All the members of these religious communities - both men and women - who were interviewed were Caucasian, their educational standard ranged from pre-matric through to university graduate status, and the overall average age of the 9rouP members was 24 years - the youngest subject was aged 17 while the oldest was 31 years of age. Rather than a meas~rement orientated procedure, a phenomenologically inspired methodological procedure was used to explicitate the data. It is argued that a descriptive phenomenological perspective is more appropriate for the elucidation of meaning-structures, especially with reference to the present inquiry, than would be a quantitative, measurement and mathematical treatment of the subject matter with which this thesis is concerned. The results are best summarized by stating that, although the explication revealed that the four groups are distinctly different in certain aspects of the meaning-structures of the individuals' becoming and being members of a group, there are nonetheless marked similarities between the groups in other aspects of the explicitated data.
