Projektive Verfahren verwenden Spiel, Zeichnungen, Geschichten und Assoziationen als Medium, durch das ein junger Mensch seine zumeist unbewussten Motive, Konflikte und Ängste symbolisch ausdrücken und mitteilen kann. Sie ermöglichen es, Kinder, Jugendliche und Familien in ihrer Subjektivität, Individualität und Psychodynamik zu verstehen. Damit bilden sie eine praktisch wichtige Ergänzung zu den psychometrischen diagnostischen Methoden. In diesem Werk werden neben Zeichen-, Spiel-, verbalthematischen und imaginativen Methoden auch Verfahren der Bindungs- und Familiendiagnostik sowie projektive Tests in der Begutachtung vorgestellt. Jedes Verfahren wird dabei in Bezug auf seine theoretischen Grundlagen, die Durchführung, Auswertung, Interpretation und die Gütekriterien ausführlich beschrieben. Die 3. Auflage bietet eine um Neuerscheinungen aktualisierte vollständige Übersicht zur Theorie und Praxis der projektiven Testverfahren. Im Kaufpreis dieses Buches ist eine Spende für die Stiftung "Achtung! Kinderseele" enthalten.

The dread of death has appeared throughout recorded human history in art, literature, song, myth, and ritual. In both ancient and modern societies, the spectre of death has always been with us, stalking the terrified living who seek to avoid its inevitable arrival. Our attempts to respond to the finitude of life range from ancient burial customs such as mummification to computerised chatbots which imitate the personality of those who have departed. Such efforts speak to the uniqueness of humans in their awareness of their own mortality. Yet death is not to be feared. Indeed, it may hold the key to living a vital, authentic life. The many authors of this volume argue persuasively that we cann...
Our resilience, or capacity to bounce back and even thrive in pressured times, is critical in workplaces today. With higher workloads, declining resources and frequent change, together with the hectic pace of personal lives, resilience is almost a key to survival. While strategies to build resilience have long been of interest in the arenas of parenting, education and disaster recovery, less focus has been placed on how these ideas can be translated into building resilient workplaces. Resilient people are more optimistic, adaptable and independent. They are also better at solving problems and have sound levels of self-control. Resilient teams have similar characteristics, and find it easier to rebound from setbacks and adapt to change and pressure. All of these characteristics can be developed. Based on sound psychological theory, Building Resilience at Work is a practical and easy-to-read book providing a proven path to self-help in developing personal resilience.
