Some of the central problems to be solved by the brain, such as figure-ground coding and object recognition, concern the binding of separately coded feature elements into coherent object representations. The binding problem has recently been approached by a variety of disciplines, notably psychophysics and experimental psychology, electrophysiology and neurophysiology, and computational modelling. This Special Issue brings together 21 of papers, mainly all from psychology and computational modelling, that address issues in Gestalt formation, the relation of the grouping and binding processes to visual attention, the role of temporal factors for grouping and binding, the neuronal correlates of binding mechanisms, the development of binding operations in infants, and the breakdown of these processes following brain damage. 相似文献
Abstract In face of the postmodern ideal of a ‘mutiple’ subject, there has been talk at regular classical psychoanalysis's normative orientation toward intervals since the end of the the ego's capacity to cope consistently with reality may Second World War of psy seem obsolete. However, a psychoanalytic theory choanalysis being obsolete. which is revised in the light of object-relations theory, In these fields – where the integrationist social psychology, and an intersubjectivist notion is not just an ideolo account of the formation of the drives can answer the gical weapon – this signifies postmodern challenge. According to this alternative the tendency of a growing psychoanalytic view, the goal of a ‘healthy’ development discrepancy said to have of personality is a state of an inner capacity for dialo opened up between the origue, able to account normatively for altering forms of ginal and the current socio-ego-identity under changing social conditions. 相似文献
Background: While the general effectiveness of psychodynamic inpatient psychotherapy has been established, very few studies have specifically investigated the effectiveness of psychodynamic inpatient treatment of depression, though depressed patients represent the largest group of inpatients.
Method : This study investigated two naturalistic samples of depressed patients regarding treatment outcome as well as clinical and treatment characteristics. Patients were treated in a psychoanalytical psychosomatic hospital unit. Data was collected from 2000 to 2002 (N=234) and from 2008 to 2010 (N=514). Data was acquired at admission and discharge.
Results: The findings reveal high pre-post effect sizes for symptom reduction (SCL-90-R), general functioning (GAF) and medium changes of interpersonal problems (IIP). The improvement on the IIP was significantly higher for patients with comorbid personality disorder. Based on therapist ratings, the sample treated from 2008-2010 showed higher levels of impairment on several levels: chronic, complex, functional (GAF) and structural (OPD).
Conclusion: Findings indicate that patients show substantial short-term benefit following psychoanalytic inpatient psychotherapy, as practiced under naturalistic conditions. Open questions remain regarding the long-term nature of these benefits and the possible influence of placebo-effects. 相似文献
We aimed at replicating the finding that humans are able to suppress unwanted memories, and tested whether this ability varies with individual differences in working memory capacity, trait anxiety and defensiveness. In a think/no-think experiment, participants either recalled or suppressed previously learned words for 0, 8 or 16 times. Suppression did not have an overall detrimental effect on later recall performance. However, higher recall rates after repeated suppression were exclusively predicted by higher trait anxiety. These results are discussed in relation to current theories on anxiety and executive control. 相似文献
Standard interpretations of Kant’s transcendental idealism take it as a commitment to the view that the objects of cognition
are structured or made by conditions imposed by the mind, and therefore to what Van Cleve calls “honest-to-God idealism”.
Against this view, many more recent investigations of Kant’s theory of representation and cognitive significance have been
able to show that Kant is committed to a certain form of Mental Content Externalism, and therefore to the realist view that
the objects involved in experience and empirical knowledge are mind-independent particulars. Some of these recent interpreters
have taken this result to demonstrate an internal incompatibility between Kant‘s transcendental idealism and his own model
of cognitive content and the environmental conditions of empirical knowledge. Against this suggestion, this article argues
that, while Kant’s theory of content is indeed best construed as externalist, an adequately adjusted form of transcendental
idealism is not only compatible with this externalism, but in fact supports it. More generally, the article develops the position
that mental content externalism cannot force the adoption of metaphysical realism. 相似文献
Outpatient psychosomatic aftercare (Curriculum Hannover) was introduced nationwide in 2000 by the pension scheme. The effectiveness and efficacy of outpatient psychosomatic aftercare has been widely researched. This publication presents an indication-model based on four levels (capacity, participation, activity and impairment) whereas empirical results and clinical experience concerning participation in psychosomatic outpatient aftercare following an in-patient rehabilitation are considered in accordance with the international classification of functioning, disability and health. 相似文献
