  1. Repression in the child's conception of the world: A phenomenological reading of Piaget.Michael P. Sipiora - 1993 - Philosophical Psychology 6 (2):167 – 180.
    The present article undertakes a psychological reading of The Child's Conception of the World as a cultural artifact in which genetic psychology's naturalistic and positivistic assumptions reflect an Enlightenment model of science, and Piaget figures as an agent of technological rationality. A phenomenological analysis of the text reveals how Piaget's research engages in an active repression of specific dimensions of childhood experience. Young children's 'adualistic' conceptions of thought, self and language are deemed 'confused', and thereby discounted, by virtue of the (...)

  • Enlightenment and Individuation.Gabriel Rossouw & Brendon Stewart - 2005 - Indo-Pacific Journal of Phenomenology 5 (1):1-10.
    It is important for psychology - as a discipline of thought about the nature of psyche - and for psychotherapy, as its practice of understanding, to draw a distinction between neurotic and authentic suffering if it aims to assist a person to become an indivisible being. A difficulty with mainstream psychology is the conviction that psyche begins and ends in the realm of Reason as this conviction tends to establish a reality of permanence, absolutes and substance, and hence consequently, colludes (...)

  • Death Mirrors the Spirit of Life.Gabriel Rossouw & David Russell - 2005 - Indo-Pacific Journal of Phenomenology 5 (2):1-11.
    The aim of this paper is to further an understanding of how a soul comes to despair and how the spirit of life is wounded. This question is approached from the perspective of death – in the form of death defying acts and voluntary death – as the dialectic aspect of being and non-being. Death can be a reflection of the life lived and the experience of who I am. The relation between ego and Self determines who I am. Two (...)

  • The Despotic Eye.Robert D. Romanyshyn - 2008 - Janus Head 10 (2):505-527.
    The claim of metabletic phenomenology about the changing nature of reality is a claim about the relation etween humanity and reality. First, it indicates that reality is a reflection of human life. Second, metabletic phenomenology indicates that the mirror relation between humanity and reality is one of participation. The example of linear perspective painting will illustrate these points. In turn, four psychological themes are identified in Van den Berg's work. The first and second themes concern, respectively, the character and place (...)

  • Metaphors and Metaphoric Objects.E. T. Jooste & Glenda Cleaver - 1992 - Journal of Phenomenological Psychology 23 (2):136-148.
    This article reports on an exploratory study that used metaphoric objects as a therapeutic aid. During Rogerian therapy sessions, a metaphoric object was handed to clients. The metaphoric object was used as a reflection of an aspect of the client's being. The clients were asked to describe the effect the object had on them. The protocols obtained were subjected to a phenomenological analysis. The study indicates that metaphoric objects can be a useful therapeutic aid.

  • Mapping Reflexive Body Techniques: On Body Modification and Maintenance.Nick Crossley - 2005 - Body and Society 11 (1):1-35.
    This article aims to do two things. The first of these is to introduce the concept of reflexive body techniques into the debate on body modification/maintenance. The value of the concept in relation to this debate, in part, is that it ensures that we conceive of the body as both a subject and an object, modifier and modified, and that we thereby avoid the trap of conceptualizing modification in dualistic (mind/body or body/society) terms. Second, the article seeks to explore the (...)
