Book excerpt: Our prominent personality features are shaped in early childhood beyond our awareness and control. However, we can change them through our conscious effort throughout our life. The challenge is that emotional growth will stay arrested if the stress from the original environmental stimuli is not processed and resolved. Trauma is an emotional response to a shocking event like an accident, natural disaster, or witnessing or experiencing violence at any age. Still, in childhood, it can be subtle when an unintentional withdrawal of attention, rejection, separation, or abandonment is experienced, even for a short period, from the original attachment figures. This volume covers how the further development of personality is related to enhancing the awareness and skills in answering the following critical questions: What factors contribute to the arrestment of our personality structure? What is the developmental road map to follow on our journey for character building? How does the ability to set or flex boundaries in our important relationships affect our personality? What are the differences among various types of compassion as parts of our personality, such as Identification, apathy, sympathy, indifference, and empathy? How do we develop skills in communication and emotional expression? How do we cultivate emotional intelligence? How can we resolve personality conflicts in a deadlocked marriage? What are typical styles of divorce, custody, adoption, and childcare arrangement according to various stages? Why would conventional parenting practices - authoritarian, permissive, and authoritative not work with the emotionally and behaviorally challenged? What are the good and the bad in Tiger, French, and American mom parenting? How does trauma escalate into hostility according to the "Trauma-Hostility Model"? How are untreated traumas reenacted in our relationship with others or the next generation through an unconscious process? What are the stage-appropriate psychotherapy approaches and typical stress-coping and help-seeking behaviors? What are the five stages in negotiation and conflict management at home or work? What are the five stages in morality and locus of control: "Hierarchy of Human Morality?" What are the ideal leadership styles at each stage of emotional development? How are the themes and characters portrayed in movies and songs of a particular stage of emotional development? While searching for the answers, the readers will find wisdom through truth-finding, grief, acceptance, and renewed hope to embark on a challenging journey toward further growth of personality and the ultimate emotional freedom.

Book excerpt: Our prominent personality features are shaped in early childhood beyond our awareness and control. However, we can change them through our conscious effort throughout our life. The challenge is that emotional growth will stay arrested and halted if the stress from the original environmental stimuli is not processed and resolved. Trauma is an emotional response to a shocking event like an accident, natural disaster, or witnessing or experiencing violence at any age.

Book excerpt: Have evolutionists been right about predicting our culture to move toward a more mature and violence-free society? Then when and how soon can we expect to arrive at the utopia? For many decades, scholars of various fields have attempted to find a unified theory that can explain the developmental path of our civilization. The present author, trained in clinical psychology and social sciences, embarked on this grand project of finding the truth about our civilization. This volume explores a compelling way to explain the movement of our civilization, which confronts us with an alternative reality to the evolutionary view. It shows that changes in human society and culture as the collection of individual personalities are not an automatic biological or evolutionary process but rather a process requiring conscious human effort and proactive decision-making by individuals, parents, leaders, and policymakers. Dr. Roland Kim, a clinical psychologist/researcher, tries to provide the 5-Stage answers to the following crucial questions that help to understand the development of our civilization: What is the best predictor of our civilization's future path, and what real-life evidence can we find to prove if civilization results from evolution or a conscious choice? What are the prevailing emotions and typical adaptive behaviors of a socio-culture as a group of individuals at various stages of development? What are the typical business motivations at various stages among power, achievement, affiliation, individual happiness, and collaboration? What will be the next shape of our economic system, capitalism, in the future? Why are the combined roles of economic and political systems critical toward successful democratization? How do we understand political and legal justice in the developmental context? What is the developmental stage of the leadership styles we observe in our culture, and what are preferred by a particular stage of socio-cultural development? What are the shapes of violence, war, non-violent strategy according to various stages of socio-cultural development? How do we understand gender roles, racism/prejudice, and scapegoating in a developmental context? Which is the better question? Which religion one has ? vs. In what stage is one's faith? What are the psychological motivations behind artistic creativity at various stages of emotional/socio-cultural development? What are its adaptive functions? How do the movies and dramas of different cultures portray their characters and themes? Using the answers to these questions as a compass, parents, leaders, and policymakers will find the wisdom of first embracing their culture, without judgment, and find the direction to navigate it for the better future of our civilization.

Download or read book Higher Stages of Human Development written by Charles Nathaniel Alexander and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can significant advances in development occur after adolescence? What are the highest possible states or stages of human development and how can they be realized? These and related critical issues are addressed in this volume by leading researchers and theorists in adult development. How we conceive of the endpoint, or highest state of development is crucial because it shapes our understanding of the direction, possibilities, and mechanisms of human growth. Even a decade ago, most psychologists believed that qualitative advances in development did not occur after adolescence. Based on recent research on adults, however, psychologists now question whether growth of fundamental human capacities necessarily culminates prior to adulthood. This new volume explores a variety of endpoints beyond the ordinarily proposed limits of human development. In addition to describing advanced forms of cognitive functioning , contributors also discuss other domains integral to adult growth--including affective, moral, self, and consciousness development.

Download or read book Psychoanalytic Perspectives on Puberty and Adolescence written by Gertraud Diem-Wille and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-30 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Puberty is a time of tumultuous transition from childhood to adulthood activated by rapid physical changes, hormonal development and explosive activity of neurons. This book explores puberty through the parent-teenager relationship, as a "normal state of crisis", lasting several years and with the teenager oscillating between childlike tendencies and their desire to become an adult. The more parents succeed in recognizing and experiencing these new challenges as an integral, ineluctable emotional transformative process, the more they can allow their children to become independent. In addition, parents who can also see this crisis as a chance for their own further development will be ultimately enriched by this painful process. They can face up to their own aging as they take leave of youth with its myriad possibilities, accepting and working through a newfound rivalry with their sexually mature children, thus experiencing a process of maturity, which in turn can set an example for their children. This book is based on rich clinical observations from international settings, unique within the field, and there is an emphasis placed by the author on the role of the body in self-awareness, identity crises and gender construction. It will be of great interest to psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, parents and carers, as well as all those interacting with adolescents in self, family and society.
