Book The Relationship of Ego Development  Empathy  and Mature Moral Judgment in Women Graduate Counseling Students

Download or read book The Relationship of Ego Development Empathy and Mature Moral Judgment in Women Graduate Counseling Students written by F. Katharine Bennett and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central problem of this study was to determine whether ego stage scores are valid predictors of empathy and mature moral judgment in women graduate counseling students. The research was based on the theories of ego development (Loevinger, 1976), empathy (Rogers, 1975; Hogan, 1975) and moral values (Hogan, 1970). Forty-three women graduate counseling students and a comparison group of twenty-one women graduate post secondary education students contributed data. Subjects completed the Washington University Sentence Completion Test of ego development, the Empathy Scale, which is embedded in the California Psychological Inventory, Hogan's Measure of Moral Values, and a Demographic Data Survey. Faculty ratings of graduate counseling students' ego development, empathic ability, and maturity of moral judgment were obtained. Analysis of the data found that the mean ego level for counseling graduate students was I-4 and the mean level for the post-secondary education graduate students was I-3/4. A t test found a significant difference (p = .01) between the mean ego level of the groups. Regression analysis assessed the influence of ego level on empathy score and mature moral judgment scores for both groups. Ego level was found to predict empathy (p = .05) for the post secondary education students but not for the counseling students. Ego level also predicted maturity of moral judgment (p = .01) for the post secondary education students. Increasing ego level corresponded to incrementally increasing empathy scores and mature moral judgment scores at each level prior to I-5 in the graduate counseling group. Regression analysis demonstrated a correlation (p = .004) between higher ego level and less childhood happiness for the post secondary education group. There were no other significant findings for demographic variables. Similarly, significant correlations were not found for faculty ratings and scores obtained by subjects on measures of ego development, empathy, and moral judgment. Implications for counselor selection and training were discussed and recommendations were made for further research.

Book In Over Our Heads

  • Author : Robert Kegan
  • Publisher : Harvard University Press
  • Release : 1998-07-21
  • ISBN : 0674265017
  • Pages : 411 pages

Download or read book In Over Our Heads written by Robert Kegan and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1998-07-21 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If contemporary culture were a school, with all the tasks and expectations meted out by modern life as its curriculum, would anyone graduate? In the spirit of a sympathetic teacher, Robert Kegan guides us through this tricky curriculum, assessing the fit between its complex demands and our mental capacities, and showing what happens when we find ourselves, as we so often do, in over our heads. In this dazzling intellectual tour, he completely reintroduces us to the psychological landscape of our private and public lives. A decade ago in The Evolving Self, Kegan presented a dynamic view of the development of human consciousness. Here he applies this widely acclaimed theory to the mental complexity of adulthood. As parents and partners, employees and bosses, citizens and leaders, we constantly confront a bewildering array of expectations, prescriptions, claims, and demands, as well as an equally confusing assortment of expert opinions that tell us what each of these roles entails. Surveying the disparate expert “literatures,” which normally take no account of each other, Kegan brings them together to reveal, for the first time, what these many demands have in common. Our frequent frustration in trying to meet these complex and often conflicting claims results, he shows us, from a mismatch between the way we ordinarily know the world and the way we are unwittingly expected to understand it. In Over Our Heads provides us entirely fresh perspectives on a number of cultural controversies—the “abstinence vs. safe sex” debate, the diversity movement, communication across genders, the meaning of postmodernism. What emerges in these pages is a theory of evolving ways of knowing that allows us to view adult development much as we view child development, as an open-ended process born of the dynamic interaction of cultural demands and emerging mental capabilities. If our culture is to be a good “school,” as Kegan suggests, it must offer, along with a challenging curriculum, the guidance and support that we clearly need to master this course—a need that this lucid and richly argued book begins to meet.

Book Friendship and Social Interaction

Download or read book Friendship and Social Interaction written by Valerian J. Derlega and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A neglected topic in the field of personal relationships has been the study of friendships. Social psychologists have studied how and why individuals are attracted to one another and the processes of interaction during initial encounters, but they have not paid much attention to ongoing friend ships. A major goal of the present volume is to develop theories and integrate research on the development and maintenance of friendships. Another major goal is to build bridges between social psychologists and other social scientists by presenting an interdisciplinary approach. Although a majority of the contributors are social psychologists, other authors include sociol ogists as well as developmental, personality, and clinical psychologists. The chapters also present research on friendship based on a wide range of research methodologies, including laboratory research as well as longi tudinal, naturalistic, and clinical studies. Hence, the book incorporates a variety of conceptual and methodological approaches that should con tribute to a cross-fertilization of ideas among disciplines. The first chapter, by Barbara A. Winstead and Valerian J. Derlega, provides an overview of theory and research on friendship. The second chapter, by Daniel Perlman and Beverley Fehr, provides a summary and conceptual critique of social psychological theories of social attraction that are relevant to the study of friendship. Adopting a developmental approach, Duane Buhrmester and Wyndol Furman, in Chapter 3, demonstrate the particular importance of friendship during middle childhood and adolescence in fulfilling interpersonal needs.
