This is a unique book for two reasons: it focuses on neuropsychiatric casualties of war, a topic that has traditionally been avoided in the media and documentary literature; and, it is based on the personal observations of a single person, the author, who served as a military neuropsychiatrist at the United States Public Health Service Hospital in Fort Worth, Texas from 1944 to 1946, where he personally diagnosed and treated over 1500 neuropsychiatric patients. The development of a mental disorder triggered by the stress of military service, is often regarded publicly as a shameful event, not only for the patient but also for his or her family. On the other hand, getting killed or injured during military action is usually considered praiseworthy and honourable. The book describes some of the diverse stressors experienced by neuropsychiatric patients ranging from the quality of life in a submarine undergoing depth bombing, the exposure to suicidal fighters attacking their battleship, to the experiences of going on repeated bombing missions while coping with diverse enemy defences. For some new enlistees, only the initial regimentation in a boot camp was sufficient to produce a menta

(This volume offers a method for the accurate measurement ...)
This volume offers a method for the accurate measurement of transient emotional, motivational, and cognitive states. Such measures are of particular importance in the study of psychophysiological and psychobiochemical processes basic to psychosomatic medicine. They are also needed to examine subtle changes resulting from drug administration or taking place in interpersonal interactions. The approach developed by the authors uses language as the raw material from which measurements of labile psychological states are made. it is the lexical, not the vocal and paralanguage, aspect of human verbal communication, upon which this method focuses. Drawing from an eclectic theoretical framework--including psychoanalysis, learning theory, and linguistics--the authors present a series of scales by means of which nonprofessional technicians can objectively score the content of verbal behavior as it is expressed in a five-minute verbal sample. These scales are composed of variously weighted content categories which--when summated by the authors--provide measures of anxiety, hostility, social alienation-personal disorganization, capacity for human relations, cognitive and intellectual impairment, hope, and health-sickness.

Focusing on language and the assessment of its meaning, this volume concentrates on a method of content analysis developed by the author and Goldine Gleser. Applicable to transcripts of speech or verbal texts, this method uses the grammatical clause as its smallest unit of communication, considers whether or not a verb is transitive and involves an object, or is intransitive and describes a state of being. It derives scores on many scales that have been tested for reliability of scoring and for construct validity with concurrently administered measures, such as rating and self-report scales as well as biochemical and pharmacological criteria. Finally, this volume provides detailed descriptions of the clinical and basic research establishing the validity of these scales, so that a reader can locate studies that have pertinence to any special interest area. A major achievement described in this book is the development of computer software that understands grammar and syntax, can parse natural language, knows most of the words in the Merriam-Webster dictionary, has been taught to identify idioms and slang, and is capable of continuing to learn. The program can score all the scales, report whether the scores obtained from a verbal sample are one to three standard deviations from the norms, and suggest APA DSM-IIIR diagnostic classifications the clinician might consider in assessing the patient.

This book aims to take the mystery out of the process of psychotherapy. Dr.Gottschalk encourages his readers to apply psychotherapeutic techniques on themselves in order to become faimiliary with how they feel and how they may change ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. Dr.Gottschalk presents the factors to consider in selecting the type of self-psychotherapy to be used; personal preference and aptitudes; the nature of the problem(s) to be treated; the degree of change wanted; whether past, present, or future is involved; and whether the goals are short or long-range. There are different types of self-psychotherapies that one can use. The author's major concentration is on the psychoanalytic therapies. He also covers other approaches, such as meditation, religion, behaviour modification and hypnosis.
