Die Persönlichkeit Ihres Pferdes

Die Persönlichkeit Ihres Pferdes

Linda Tellington-Jones; Sybil Taylor

Franckh-Kosmos
2008
sidottu
Den Charakter und die Persönlichkeit eines Pferdes zu erkennen, ist eine Kunst. Linda Tellington-Jones hat dafür eine einzigartige Herangehensweise entwickelt. Bestimmte äußere Merkmale wie Form und Proportion des Pferdekopfes, Schnitt und Stellung von Augen und Ohren, Fellwirbel und vieles andere mehr lassen auf eine Art Grundmuster der Pferdepersönlichkeit schließen. Dieses wird jedoch auch von Umwelterfahrungen des Pferdes ergänzt, manchmal auch überlagert. Folglich ist das, was wir als Persönlichkeit eines Pferdes erleben eine Mischung aus angeborenem, ererbtem Charakter und Reaktion auf Umwelteinflüsse. Wenn wir lernen, beides zu erkennen und auseinanderzuhalten, können wir Fehlreaktionen des Pferdes besser verstehen. Vor allem aber können wir dem Pferd helfen, sie zu überwinden, und damit die Persönlichkeit unseres Pferdes positiv bestärken und entwickeln. Den Weg dazu zeigt Linda Tellington-Jones mit diesem Buch.

Personality Structure and Measurement (Psychology Revivals)

Personality Structure and Measurement (Psychology Revivals)

Hans J. Eysenck; Sybil B.G. Eysenck

Routledge
2013
sidottu
Originally published in 1969, this book deals extensively with the description and measurement of personality.Beginning with a statement of the principles of typological research in psychology, set against the background of general taxonomic principles in biology, the study discusses in detail results and generalisations from the Eysencks’ previous work. The second part of the book describes several large-scale studies using personality questionnaires prepared by the authors, as well as the standard ones of Cattell and Guilford. There is a comparative study of the Eysenck, Cattell and Guilford inventories, which analyses the degree to which similar factors can be found in these three instruments and discusses areas of agreement and disagreement between the three authors. The third part deals with personality studies in children, and includes a chapter on personality structure in subnormal subjects. These studies are concerned with discovering the extent to which personality structure changes with increasing age, and to what extent it is possible to measure personality in younger children. They also examine sex differences in personality structure, and show quite marked differences between the sexes on a number of primary personality traits.The results of the Eysencks’ work in this field directed new light on the structure of personality and cast doubt on many widely accepted findings of the time.

The Resilient Self: How Survivors of Troubled Families Rise Above Adversity
An informative and inspiring guide to rebounding from childhood hardships to find uncommon strength and courage "The Resilient Self reminds us all of the importance of being aware of and building on the strengths of our young people, whatever their early life experiences. We must work to give them hope and to craft services and programs that are respectful of the resiliencies so thoughtfully characterized by the Wolins. This guide, although based on the experiences of adults, offers extremely useful insights too for those working on behalf of children and adolescents."--Marian Wright Edelman, president, Children's Defense Fund "This book offers a strong sense of hope for everyone who has grown up in a troubled family. I salute the authors for their masterful synthesis of research, clinical experiences, and insights gleaned from the voices of poetry. The Wolins' book cautions the reader that no one emerges from troubled childhood without some scars, but it challenges us to finds ways in which we can transforms pain into joy in our lives."--Emmy E. Werner, Ph.D., author of Vulnerable But Invincible and Overcoming the Odds "This marvelous book can turn the tide for people injured during their childhoods, not by ignoring the ashes of the past, but by winnowing out the precious elements from which the phoenix can triumphantly rise. It is a book that has been badly needed, and for which many will long be grateful."--Timmen L. Cermak, M.D., former chairman, National Association for Children of Alcoholics "At last, a compassionate and realistic challenge to abandon the idea that one is a passive object of an unhappy childhood. The Resilient Self encourages readers to recognize and appreciate their strong, insightful, and creative survival."--Barbara Mathis, author of Between Sisters: Secret Rivals, Intimate Friends "The Resilient Self shows adult children of dysfunctional families that they can escape a painful past and become resilient survivors. It describes the strategies which have been used successfully by those who grew up in troubled homes but who managed to work well, play well, and love well as adults. I recognized myself in this book with a survivor's pride."--Anonymous survivor
