This book was released on 2004 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The separation-individuation process is a lifelong journey. It involves the gradual separation from ones parents to a more independent life. For many Caucasian, middle class young adults, leaving home and transitioning to college is the most overt statement of parental separation and increased independence. Only children are faced with a unique challenge in this separation process. The family system of the only child is unique in that only children often are more interconnected with parents and may experience strong feelings of dependency. Therefore, as an only child separates from her parents, she is faced with the unique challenge of living with the enlargement of her living system as she copes with the strong emotions associated with separation and the subsequent relinquishment of the responsibility she feels for her parents' wellbeing. This qualitative dissertation explores the meaning of guilt in the separation and adjustment process for five female, only child, freshman college students. An open-ended interview protocol, analyzed horizontally and vertically, produced clusters of meanings leading to the essential set of meanings for this group of participants. While making a positive overall adjustment, many participants faced marked feelings of loss and guilt during the initial separation from their parents. Many participants described profound fears and guilt about injuring their parents through their choice to separate and attend college. Future research on the differential experience of male, only child, Caucasian freshman college students is recommended.

Book excerpt: [Abstract] "What is the experience of feeling guilty?" is the question which is explored from the perspective of psychology using a qualitative research design. In lengthy, in-depth interviews, eight co-researchers were asked to describe their experiences of feeling guilty. The interviews were analyzed using phenomenological methodology. As a result of the analysis, eleven themes were identified: experiences of alienation; a need to isolate oneself; a tendency to self-blame; a conflicted view of self; attempts to escape feeling guilty; the obsessive and unavoidable quality of the experience; the relationship of guilt feelings to feelings of responsibility and control; other painful emotions connected with feeling guilty; physical states; the repetitive and long lasting nature of the feeling; and the restrictive and heavy quality of guilt. These themes were found to impact the co-researchers in the relationship to self; the self in time; the self in relationship to the world of others; and the body in space. The co-researchers in the study described the experience of feeling guilty as one of being forcibly removed from the flow of life, from human sharing and warmth, and of being cast into a painful, frozen, inner-focused world. Guilt severed their sense of connection with everyday things, other people, and themselves. At the same time, perceiving themselves as basically good people, they severely questioned the actions that evoked the guilt. They needed absolution, but fearing the comdemnaiton of others remained isolated. They were haunted by what had been done could never be undone. Time stood still. All exits were closed. Self-respect deteriorated. They hid their real selves behind the mask of pleasing others. Some of the co-researchers were able to find the courage to face the guilt, come to terms with it, and ultimately find a peaceful resolution. Theoretical perpectives of Freud, selected neo-Freudians, and the existentialists were presented and assessed. Previous research studies on guilt were reviewed. The implications of the study for psychology and specifically to psychotherapeutic interventions were discussed and suggestions for further outlined.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book of 2020 A Bloomberg Best Non-Fiction Book of 2020 A Behavioral Scientist Notable Book of 2020 A Human Behavior & Evolution Society Must-Read Popular Evolution Book of 2020 A bold, epic account of how the co-evolution of psychology and culture created the peculiar Western mind that has profoundly shaped the modern world. Perhaps you are WEIRD: raised in a society that is Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic. If so, you’re rather psychologically peculiar. Unlike much of the world today, and most people who have ever lived, WEIRD people are highly individualistic, self-obsessed, control-oriented, nonconformist, and analytical. They focus on themselves—their attributes, accomplishments, and aspirations—over their relationships and social roles. How did WEIRD populations become so psychologically distinct? What role did these psychological differences play in the industrial revolution and the global expansion of Europe during the last few centuries? In The WEIRDest People in the World, Joseph Henrich draws on cutting-edge research in anthropology, psychology, economics, and evolutionary biology to explore these questions and more. He illuminates the origins and evolution of family structures, marriage, and religion, and the profound impact these cultural transformations had on human psychology. Mapping these shifts through ancient history and late antiquity, Henrich reveals that the most fundamental institutions of kinship and marriage changed dramatically under pressure from the Roman Catholic Church. It was these changes that gave rise to the WEIRD psychology that would coevolve with impersonal markets, occupational specialization, and free competition—laying the foundation for the modern world. Provocative and engaging in both its broad scope and its surprising details, The WEIRDest People in the World explores how culture, institutions, and psychology shape one another, and explains what this means for both our most personal sense of who we are as individuals and also the large-scale social, political, and economic forces that drive human history. Includes black-and-white illustrations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this 1994 classic work on student retention, Vincent Tinto synthesizes far-ranging research on student attrition and on actions institutions can and should take to reduce it. The key to effective retention, Tinto demonstrates, is in a strong commitment to quality education and the building of a strong sense of inclusive educational and social community on campus. He applies his theory of student departure to the experiences of minority, adult, and graduate students, and to the situation facing commuting institutions and two-year colleges. Especially critical to Tinto’s model is the central importance of the classroom experience and the role of multiple college communities.
