La personalidad de las sociedades. Descripción y dinámica
2018
[EN] Extraversion is considered as the fundamental and basic dimension of personality from the Unique Trait Personality Theory [1]. Extraversion, as temperamental dimension, involves cognitive dimensions such as racionality and emotionality. Carl Jung¿s theory of types [2] states a complex dynamics among these dimensions. From this theory a typology of personality arises. Amigó [3] adapted Jung¿s theory to applye it to societies. A reflexion about history is given by the dynamics of societies through time. This approach starts from Jung's idea of the opposite dimensions that complement and imprint movement, and from Amigó's theory about societies survivance [4], which argues that crises cau…
El origen de los trastornos mentales: un nuevo enfoque desde el estudio de la dinámica de la personalidad
2018
[EN] There is a growing consensus in the mental health sciences (psychology, psychiatry) that there is no clear dividing line between "normal" personality and "abnormal" personality or mental disorders. In fact, basic personality traits predispose or overlap with clinical mental disorders. For example, Neuroticism, as a factor that predisposes to neurosis, predisposes to suffer from anxiety, depression and obsessive disorders. This question serves to present a summary of the work of our group (Antonio Caselles, Joan C. Micó and Salvador Amigó) and to point out future research. Thus, after reviewing our studies on the dynamics of the General Personality Factor (FGP) and its biological substr…
Changing the General Factor of Personality and the c-fos Gene Expression with Methylphenidate and Self-Regulation Therapy
2012
[EN] A deepening in the biological nature of the general factor of personality (GFP) is suggested: the activation level of the stress system is here represented by the gene expression of c-fos. The results of a single case experimental design are reported. A model of four coupled differential equations that explains the human personality dynamics as a consequence of a single stimulant drug intake has been fitted to psychological and biological experimental data. The stimulant-drug conditioning and its adaptation to the considered mathematical model is also studied for both kinds of measures. The dynamics of the cfos expression presents a similar pattern to the dynamics of the psychological …
