“…This is true for parkinsonism (9). One parkinsonian patient told the author, with reference to his initial reaction to the disease: “I felt less than a man.” Low self‐evaluation impairs the functioning of people in general (10), and of patients undergoing physical rehabilitation in particular (11). However, a recent study (12) showed that when physical rehabilitation is administered to patients resident in a rehabilitation center, the incapacitating effects of low self‐esteem are counteracted by the greater ease with which patients with low self‐esteem can be “converted” to an acceptance of the center's rehabilitation ethic.…”

Chronic illness produces changes in patients' self-conceptions and social relationships which may impair their level of functioning. L-dopa therapy is particularly relevant t o patients ill for some time with a disease believed by themselves and their associates t o be chronic. In parkinsonian patients, therefore, the effect of L-dopa on their level of functioning, as distinct from their symptoms, is likely to be inhibited by some of the social and psychological concomitants of chronic illness. The literature on these concomitants and on recovery from chronic illness indicates that functional recovery will be impeded if: 1) the patient considers himself to be impaired, devalued and stigmatized, and 2) his social environment is characterized by extreme social isolation or cohesion, a pessimistic prognosis on the part of others, or an illness-induced family restructuring which the relatives are loath

ARTIKELRotter's scetningsfuldendelsestest i en komparativ unders0gelse af voldsofre ASK ELKLIT Psykologisk lnstitut Arhus Universitet Elklit, A. (1991 ). Rotter Incomplete Sentences Blank in a comparative study of victims of violent assault. Nordisk Psykologi, 43, 107-121.The Rotter ISB is a projective test that can be applied in clinical settings and for research purposes. Based on "post-Goldberg" articles physiological, psychological and sociological research is reviewed to study the validity of ISB. It was found that validity was high in all three areas. Besides the conventional adjustment score, ISB is productive for studying psychological variables as anxiety, hostility and dependency ad modum Renner. The need for recognition and social desirability does not seem to destroy the value of ISB. A future article will report on the results from the victims of violent assaults. Ask Elk/it, Institute of Psychology, Aarhus University, 4 Asylvej, DK-8240 Risskov. lndledning Som led i et projekt, der tilb0d sagesl0se voldsofre psykologisk hjcelp (Bmndum, 1989), har der i den tilh0rende effektunders0gelse vceret anvendt fcenomenologiske og projektive metoder (jf. Elklit, 1990). En af de valgte projektive tests blev Rotter's scetningsfuldendelsestest, som blev foretrukket ud fra dens face-validitet, bredde, fravcer af abenlys patologisk orientering og lette administration. Formalet med artiklen er ncermere at unders0ge og underbygge vcerdien af Rotter's test ud fra den foreliggende litteratur. Litteraturs0gning har vist, at den forskningsmcessige interesse for Rotter's test har vceret beskeden i en lille snes ar, sammenholdt med perioden 1947-72. Dette kunne maske skyldes den harde konkurrence og kravet om konstant fornyelse i USA ogsa inden for testomradet. Endvidere har 68-opmret muligvis vceret medvirkende til, at mange har tabt interessen for at evaluere og videreudvikle projektive tests. Polyson et al. (1985) finder en tilsvarende tendens for TAT, trods denne pr0ves store popularitet i klinisk praksis.

“…The orientation of counseling psychology toward dealing with varied problems in living, with attention to the healthy aspects of personality, makes this specialty particularly well suited to dealing with the varied psychosocial and vocational needs of individuals with physical disabilities. Over the past 16 years, the counseling psychology literature has not emphasized issues related to physical disability; however, attention has been given to related topics such as vocational adjustment (Rohe & Athelstan, 1982; Willis, Harford, & Eddy, 1970), psychological assessment (Bardach, 1968), psychological adjustment to disability (Barry, Dunteman, & Webb, 1968; Grand, 1972; Wampler et al, 1980), and counseling interventions (Morgan & Leung, 1980).…”

Individuals with severe physical disability are at high risk for psychological problems, and growing evidence suggests a lack of adequate mental health services for this population. To shed light on this problem, a large, multiphase survey was conducted, including samples of individuals with physical disability, consumer advocates, rehabilitation and mental health administrators, rehabilitation counselors, and mental health practitioners. This article reports the extent to which respondents from each sample considered 10 variables as barriers to provision of mental health services to individuals with severe physical disability. Results indicate that individuals with severe physical disability are an underserved group and that there are several major barriers to adequate mental health services for this population. Conclusions and recommendations are made regarding policy and program development and training of professionals.
