Della resilienza in psicologia ed in particolare in psicologia dello sport verranno sottolineati gli elementi fondamentali, frutto di una convergenza di studi e ricerche, che possono venire ripresi ed utilizzati in un percorso di aiuto con l'applicazione di tecniche ipnotiche. Verranno presentate poi tre situazioni di lavoro sul campo, due con atleti vittime di infortunio e un caso di atleta disabile, in tre discipline sportive diverse. Abstract The author presents a brief overview of the concept of resilience, a term borrowed from physics of materials and only recently investigated by psychology. Resilience in psychology and in particular in sport psychology will be underlined the fundamental elements, the result of a convergence of research and studies, which can be recovered and used to help with the application of hypnotic techniques. Then three situations will be presented by field work, two accident victims with athletes and a case of disabled athlete, in three different sports.

Then the importance and the symbolic reality of the couple in our society. There are in fact many and intricate ways in which the couple is seen in the popular imagination: the heterosexual couple and the bond of love. What makes a couple sick and another, with similar characteristics, healthy? The second part will offer clinical examples and interventions with hypnotic mode or integrated psychotherapy. L’autore nella prima parte accenna alle diverse tipologie di coppia: "nel mito, in letteratura, sport, spettacolo". Viene sottolineata l’importanza e la realta simbolica della coppia nella nostra societa . Esistono infatti numerosi ed intricati versi in cui la coppia viene considerata nell’immaginario comune: la coppia eterosessuale e il legame d’amore, il cosa rende una coppia malata ed un’altra , con simili caratteristiche, sana. Nella seconda parte si propongono esempi clinici ed interventi con modalita ipnotiche o di psicoterapia integrata.

Research paper thumbnail of The Use of Artificial Neural Networks Methodology in the Assessment of “Vulnerability” to Heroin Use among Army Corps Soldiers: A Preliminary Study of 170 Cases inside the Military Hospital of Legal Medicine of Verona

The first subsample was characterized by a strong tendency towards normalcy, the second by a strong tendency towards pathology, and the third by a great variety of expressions of psychological and social problems, which were not necessarily related to drug use. These subjects were administered a questionnaire designed according to Squashing Theory principles (Buscema, 1994a). Answers were processed by an Artificial Neural Network created by Semeion in Rome (Buscema, 1996) and were compared with a standard clinical psychiatric assessment report and with the results of psychodiagnostic tests. Results document ANNs' remarkable ability to recognize subjects with declared, in exordium and "at risk" pathological behaviors. Blind results on learning and trial samples show a very high predictive capacity (over 90%). A comparison with the examined subjects' clinical report and the results of the first follow-up also document very high agreements. The broad variation of answers obtained in the third subsample allows further methodological reflections on the contribution of Artificial Neural Networks and Squashing Theory to the study of deviance, for both sociologists and clinicians, and not only for those in the field of drug addiction.

Il presente studio è stato effettuato per compa-rare l'efficacia della terapia di gruppo cognitivo-comportamentale con l'ipnosi co-gnitiva di gruppo per ridurre la depressione negli adolescenti in lutto. Due gruppi hanno ricevuto rispettivamente otto sessioni di terapia cognitivo-comportamentale e otto d'ipnosi cognitiva, mentre, il gruppo di controllo non ha ricevuto alcun trat-tamento. I risultati dello studio indicano l'efficacia di terapie psicologiche nel trat-tamento del disturbo da lutto considerando, inoltre, le minori complicazioni di que-ste terapie rispetto al maggior impatto sugli adolescenti che causano i trattamenti farmacologici.

Research paper thumbnail of Hypnosis-induced modulation of corticospinal excitability during motor imagery

Despite its application in contexts implying motor control, evidence for the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying hypnosis is scarce. Inter-individual differences in hypnotic susceptibility suggest that sensorimotor strategies may manifest in a hypnotic state. We tested by means of transcranial magnetic stimulation applied over the primary motor cortex whether motor system activation during a motor imagery task differs in the awake and in the hypnotic state. To capture individual differences, 30 healthy volunteers were classified as high or low hypnotizable (Highs and Lows) according to ad-hoc validated scales measuring hypnotic susceptibility and personality questionnaires. Corticospinal activation during motor imagery in the hypnotic state was greater in the Highs than the Lows. Intrinsic motivation in task performance and lev...

The aim of this study was to investigate response to the RHI in high (N = 21) and low (N = 19) hypnotizable individuals in normal waking state and in hypnosis. Response to the RHI was measured via a question on the illusory feeling of ownership and with proprioceptive drift. The Highs expressed an overall feeling of more ownership over the rubber hand in both the normal waking state and hypnosis, although both groups gave higher ownership scores after synchronous than after asynchronous stroking and the difference between conditions was similar across groups. Conversely, the proprioceptive drift appeared to be differentially modulated by hypnosis and hypnotic suggestibility: it was increased in the Highs and decreased in the Lows after hypnosis induction. These find...
