Objective: the aim of this article is to test the French-speaking version of the IDentity and EAting disorders questionnaire (IDEA) (Stanghellini et al. 2012). From a phenomenological perspective, anorexic patients seem to experience difficulties regarding the subjective feeling of their own body (embodiment) and their personal identity, which leads to an inter-subjectivity impairment within social interactions. Following these findings, this study investigated the “lived-body-for-others” concept (Sartre, 1943) in a sample of anorexic female patients. These patients were expected to define themselves mostly through the eyes of others instead of from their own perspective: their Leib (i.e. lived-body) was hypothesized to be more vulnerable than their Körper (i.e. body object).Hypothesis: The main hypothesis assumed that anorexic patients would define themselves mostly through the eyes of others and would tend to experience less bodily sensations than control participants. Significant higher scores for these dimensions in the clinical group compared to the control group were expected. Method: this study included 67 anorexic female patients based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual IV criteria and 246 control female participants. All the participants were French speakers from Belgium, France and Switzerland. Participants had to complete two self-reported questionnaires: The Eating Disorder Inventory 2 (EDI-2) (French version) to evaluate eating disorders and the IDEA (French version translated and adapted by us) to assess the “lived-body-for-others” concept. Mann-Whitney non-parametric tests were used to compare the results of the clinical and the control groups. Conclusion: the outcomes confirmed our hypothesis: anorexic female patients had significantly higher scores compared to the control group concerning both of the questionnaires: EDI-2 and IDEA. Anorexic female patients seemed to have difficulties concerning the way they experience their own body, their per, Objectif :cet article présente la version francophone du questionnaire d’inspiration phénoménologique Identity and Eating Disorders (IDEA) (Stanghellini et al. 2012). La littérature d’inspiration phénoménologique met en évidence que les personnes souffrant d’anorexie mentale présentent des perturbations au niveau de l’incarnation et de l’intersubjectivité. Cette recherche évalue les expériences corporelles subjectives de participantes anorexiques grâce au concept du corps-pour-autrui proposé par J.-P. Sartre (1943). Hypothèse :les patientes anorexiques se définissent davantage à travers le regard des autres et tendent à moins ressentir leur corps de manière sensorielle. Méthode :67 patientes anorexiques et 246 participantes contrôles ont répondu à la version francophone, traduite par nos soins, du questionnaire IDentity and EAting disorders. Des tests non paramétriques de Mann-Whitney pour échantillons indépendants ont été effectués.Conclusion :les résultats statistiques confirment l’hypothèse de recherche :les patientes anorexiques obtiennent des scores au questionnaire significativement supérieurs à ceux des participantes contrôles. Ces résultats confirment des difficultés au niveau de l’incarnation et de l’intersubjectivité chez les sujets anorexiques et annoncent des perspectives de recherche importantes., info:eu-repo/semantics/published

The purpose of this thesis was to add the Portuguese case to the current discussion on the new forms of penalty that reflect a new modality of governance of the detainees, not more focused on treatment but rather on the supervision and on the control of groups at risk. From the analysis of the developments in prison treatment since the 1930s emerged three treatment configurations — moralization, resocialization and accountability — which highlight the continuities and breaks involved. Despite the changes in the prison treatment observed, they are described as a pseudomorphosis, due to the continuity of the primitive form of treatment, which allows us to recognise its basic features., Le propos fondamental de cette thèse a été d'ajouter le cas portugais à la discussion actuelle sur les nouvelles formes de pénalité qui rendent compte d'une nouvelle modalité de gouvernance des détenus, non plus axée sur le traitement mais plutôt sur la surveillance et le contrôle de groupes à risque. De l'analyse des évolutions du traitement pénitentiaire depuis les années 1930 émergent trois configurations de traitement - moralisation, resocialisation et responsabilisation - qui mettent en lumière les continuités et les ruptures. Malgré les évolutions du traitement pénitentiaire constatées, elles sont qualifiées de pseudomorphose, en raison de la pérennité d'une forme primitive de traitement,laquelle nous permet de reconnaître ses traits fondamentaux., (CRIM - Criminologie) -- UCL, 2018

The aim of the current study was to provide a French validation of the MADRE questionnaire (Schredl, Berres, Klingauf, Schelhaas & Göritz, 2014) and to further examine demographic factors that may affect dream-related experiences (Schredl, Berres, Klingauf, Schelhaas & Göritz, 2014). The participants were 357 Belgians aged from 18 to 81 years. Despite some differences caused by the sample features, the results obtained with the French version of the MADRE questionnaire indicated a lot of similarities with the German original version. However, all variables did not reach satisfying retest reliability. The findings regarding the French version of the MADRE questionnaire are encouraging but a replication with a shorter test/retest interval and a more representative sample is needed., info:eu-repo/semantics/published

The Typus Melancholicus (TM) is a pre-melancholic personality structure, defined by Tellenbach and Kraus and characterized by the orderliness, conscientiousness, norm orientation and intolerance of ambiguity. This study aims to discriminate the existence of a subgroup TM, among a unipolar depressive population. In order to prove the existence of this subgroup, we translated and administrated the Criteria for Typus Melancholicus (CTM) to a sample of 20 unipolar patients and 20 control participants. The research hypothesis was to find a similar proportion to the one observed in the literature (50% of TM in the unipolar sample). The results demonstrate, as expected, that half of the unipolar sample belongs to a homogeneous subgroup that displays the TM features. Furthermore, no control subjects displays the TM features. Those results suggest that the TM features design a coherent and typical psychopathological structure that can be found in an important proportion of unipolar depressive population. Our study identifies and confirms the existence of a distinct heterogeneity (TM/noTM) inside the unipolar group. This distinction opens the door to some important perspectives in terms of therapy.Le Typus Melancholichus (TM) est un mode de fonctionnement psychologique pré-mélancolique décrit par Tellenbach et Kraus, caractérisé par le besoin d’ordre, un caractère consciencieux, une référence rigide à la norme et une intolérance à l’ambiguïté. Cette étude présente un outil susceptible de discriminer la présence d’un sous-groupe TM parmi une population de sujets dépressifs unipolaires. Afin d’objectiver l’existence de ce sous-groupe, nous avons traduit le Criteria for Typus Melancholicus (CTM) et l’avons administré à un échantillon de 20 sujets unipolaires et de 20 sujets contrôles. L’hypothèse de recherche était de retrouver une proportion similaire à celle observée dans la littérature (50% de sujets TM dans l’échantillon de sujets unipolaires).

The aim of this work is to contribute to the ecological and phenomenological understanding of people with borderline personality disorder by analyzing the relation to the “limit situations”, a concept that was formulated one century ago by Karl Jaspers. This study makes it possible to go beyond the nosographic debate in which the pathological entity is often confined, by defining it as a disorder “situated” between neurosis and psychosis. The five limit-situations (which have been described by Gabriel Marcel in his introduction to Jaspers’ proposals) – namely, (1) historical situation, (2) love conflict, (3) suffering, (4) guilt, (5) and death – turn out to be crucial situations in which the limit-existence manifests itself in a specific way. In particular, we observe that the peculiarities of the experience characterizing the borderline individual’s limit situations rely on a temporality grounded on instantaneity and immediacy, and imply a specific relationship to others. Finally, the limit state seems to call into question this primordial tendency by suggesting that every man is bound to be part of time, to love, to feel guilty, to suffer and to flee this suffering, to die and to organize his life by considering such a condition of finitude.Ce travail a pour ambition de participer à la compréhension écologique et phénoménologique des personnes présentant un trouble de la personnalité borderline en analysant le rapport aux « situations-limites », concept énoncé, il y a un siècle, par Karl Jaspers. Cette étude permet de dépasser le débat nosographique auquel l’entité est souvent confinée consistant à la définir comme un trouble « situé » entre névrose et psychose. Les cinq situations-limites (décrites par Gabriel Marcel dans une introduction aux propositions de Jaspers) – (1) la situation historique, (2) le combat amoureux, (3) la souffrance, (4) la culpabilité et (5) la mort – s’avèrent être des situations cruciales dans lesquelles l’existence limite se manifeste d, info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Based on the analysis of a clinical case, namely a borderline patient displaying several self-realised tattoos, we’ll broach three principal characteristics of borderline existence. They are instantaneity, ubiquity and a sense of disappearing-body. Given this original understanding of the trouble, the issue of tattoo practice in borderline people, as well as the very particular relationship they maintain with their own body and other people, will be discussed. We’ll also highlight the dialectics between the objectification of the body, as an object which is likely to be manipulated and modified, and the objectivation of the body, as an object dotted with the special and determining power of being animated by a subjectivity. We’ll end by emphasising how the borderline personality find its place and is, in a way, in tune with the postmodern evolution of our current society.À partir de l’analyse d’un cas clinique, à savoir un patient borderline arborant de nombreux tatouages auto-réalisés, nous aborderons trois caractéristiques principales de l’existence borderline. Il s’agit de l’instantanéité, de l’ubiquité, et de la sensation d’un corps-en-disparition. À la lumière de cette compréhension originale du trouble, la question de la pratique du tatouage chez les borderline, ainsi que le rapport très particulier qu’ils entretiennent avec leur corps et avec autrui, seront évoqués. Nous mettrons ainsi en évidence la dialectique qui s’inscrit entre l’objectification du corps, en tant qu’objet susceptible d’être manipulé et modifié, et l’objectivation de celui-ci, en tant qu’objet doué du pouvoir spécial et déterminant d’être animé d’une subjectivité. Nous terminerons en soulignant à quel point la personnalité borderline trouve sa place et est en quelque sorte en phase avec l’évolution postmoderne de notre société actuelle., info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Space is lived individually and collectively and can become a source of existential affectation, especially when the lived experience is modified by disease. The fact that the hospital is also a place of territorialisation can potentiate this affectation, with at times surprising consequences. We aim –based on a reflection about the relationship patients and clinicians establish with the territory of the hospital- to identify some psychological and existential issues at stake with regard to space as a social construction.L’espace, sur le plan individuel et collectif, peut devenir une source d’affectation d’ordre existentiel, particulièrement lors d’une modification du vécu par la maladie. Le fait que l’hôpital soit aussi un lieu de territorialisation peut potentialiser cette affectation, avec des conséquences parfois surprenantes. Nous essaierons – à l’aide d’une réflexion sur le rapport des patients et soignants au territoire hospitalier - d’identifier quelques enjeux psychiques et existentiels que représente l’espace comme construction sociale., info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Based on the case study of Jeanne, the objective of this article is to study patterns of specific subjectivity in anorexic subjects. We seek to identify, in a first-person perspective, the core vulnerability features of anorexic existence, beyond the dimension of food alone. The identification of a psychopathological structure results in a better understanding of Jeanne’s clinical situation and helps formulate psychotherapeutic and prophylactic recommendations. We suggest that so-called “denial” is a psychological mechanism that should be reconsidered. Denial is not a mechanism pertaining to anorexic subjects alone, but is also a process encountered both in the patient’s family and in the therapeutic environment. Anorexic denial is based on anosognosia and the refusal to see one’s own thinness, while other people’s denial consists in a widespread inability to perceive the altruism and intersubjective problematic on which the existence of an anorexic subject fundamentally depends., info:eu-repo/semantics/published

In this article, based on literature review, we present an integrated description of heboidophrenia and pseudo-psychopathic schizophrenia. Both diagnostic constructs describe latent psychotic processes inextricably bound with psychopathic features. Although both have been described in different eras and research threads, they are that similar that we could not find divergences. We formulated operational criteria for clinical and research purpose. The recognition of this syndrome improves risk management, treatment, and legal decisions., info:eu-repo/semantics/published
