Social Invisibility and Emotional Blindness
2020
The unsettling, humiliating, and often threatening experience of feeling oneself ‘invisible’ before the gazes of other people in one’s social world has obvious potential as a theme for collaborative efforts between social theorists and phenomenologists. This chapter proposes one way of approaching such an engagement, drawing in particular upon three authors who offer detailed analyses of social visibility and its potential pathologies: Axel Honneth, Frantz Fanon, and Edmund Husserl. The specific phenomenon is first be located by way of Honneth’s treatment of social invisibility as frequented by behaviour that expresses an attitude of nonrecognition towards other persons immediately present.…
Heterogeneity of executive functions among preschool children with psychiatric symptoms
2019
The aim of the present study was to investigate associations between internalizing and externalizing symptoms and deficits in executive functions (EF) as well as to examine the overall heterogeneity of EFs in a sample of preschool children attending a psychiatric clinic (n = 171). First, based on cut-off points signifying clinical levels of impairment on the parent-completed Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), children were assigned into groups of internalizing, externalizing, combined or mild symptoms and compared to a reference group (n = 667) with regard to day care teacher ratings of EFs on the Attention and Executive Function Rating Inventory-Preschool (ATTEX-P). Second, latent profile an…
Jukolan veljekset maallikkopsykiatrin vastaanotolla : ADHD-nimike ja muut tarttuvat diagnoosit Seitsemän veljeksen nykyluennassa
2022
Helsingin Sanomien julkaisemassa tietokirjassa Seitsemän miestä (2005) esitetään psykiatrisia diagnooseja Aleksis Kiven Seitsemässä veljeksessä (1870) kuvatuista henkilöistä. Tällainen diagnosoimisen tapa osallistuu kulttuurin diagnostisoitumisen prosessiin – siihen, että spesifit diagnoosinimikkeet saavat yhä keskeisemmän sijan kulttuurissa. Analysoin teokseen kirjattuja diagnosointeja kulttuurisen mielenterveystutkimuksen näkökulmasta. In this article I analyze how psychiatric diagnoses are used in the book Seitsemän miestä (The Seven Men, 2005), a nonfictional work by journalist Ilkka Malmberg. The book is published by Helsingin Sanomat, the largest subscription news-paper in Finland, an…
The 'Extreme Female Brain' : Increased Cognitive Empathy as a Dimension of Psychopathology
2016
Baron-Cohen's ‛extreme male brain’ theory postulates that autism involves exaggerated male-typical psychology, with reduced empathizing (considered here as social–emotional interest, motivation and abilities) and increased systemizing (non-social, physical-world and rule-based interest, motivation and abilities), in association with its male-biased sex ratio. The concept of an ‘extreme female brain’, involving some combination of increased empathizing and reduced systemizing, and its possible role in psychiatric conditions, has been considerably less well investigated. Female-biased sex ratios have been described in two conditions, depression and borderline personality disorder (BPD), that …
Mitä filosofi tekee psykiatrisella klinikalla, Thomas Fuchs?
2019
Saksassa Heidelbergin yliopistoklinikalla on pitkät perinteet filosofian ja psykiatrian yhteistyölle. Fenomenologisen psykiatrian ja psykoterapian tutkimusyksikköä johtava professori Thomas Fuchs kertoo, miten fenomenologista tutkimusta tehdään psykiatrisessa sairaalassa ja kuinka hänen omat filosofiset sitoumuksensa tulevat esille potilastyössä. Keskustelumme klinikalla valotti hänen ajattelunsa pääpiirteitä kehollisuudesta, tunteiden filosofiasta ja tiedostamattomasta. Fuchs käsittää tunteet vuorovaikutteisina, ruumiillisina ja tilallisina ilmiöinä ja väittää, ettei tiedostamaton sijaitse psyyken syvyyksissä vaan on kehollisesti eletty ja koettu. nonPeerReviewed
Phenomenological Strands for Gaming Disorder and Esports Play: A Qualitative Registered Report
2021
The recent inclusion of gaming disorder in the ICD-11 as a mental disorder has further increased the importance of researching the health spectrum related to gaming. A critical area in this regard is the lack of clarity concerning the differences between gaming disorder and intensive play, the latter of which often involves several gaming hours per day without related health problems. In this study, we approached the above question by interpretive phenomenological analysis with interviews in two groups of highly involved videogame players: those who seek or have sought clinical help for their problems with gaming (n=6), and those who play esports more than 4 hours per day without self-repor…
