Evaluating and Treating Families

Evaluating and Treating Families

Christine Ryan; Nathan B. Epstein; Gabor I. Keitner; Ivan W. Miller; Duane S. Bishop

Routledge
2005
sidottu
This comprehensive text is organized into two parts, the first of which presents an overview of the history, development, and theory of the model, and its specific applications to treatment, training, assessment, and research. Part II includes the instruments and assessment tools originally developed by the authors during their extensive clinical and research experience. Clinical case examples drawn from over four decades of family therapy work enrich the text, and an entire chapter is devoted to the authors' own research findings, current research plans, and new directions in their work.

Die Geschichte eines aussergewohnlichen Universitatsgebaudes Das Bernoullianum ist fur die Wissenschaften, fur Physik, Chemie und Astronomie, errichtet worden. Treibende Kraft war der Basler Physikprofessor und Politiker Eduard Hagenbach-Bischoff (1833-1910), der sich von der Konzeption uber die Mittelbeschaffung bis hin zur Festlegung des Raumprogramms und zur technischen Ausstattung um alles kummerte. Mit Johann Jacob Stehlin d.J. (1826-1894) fand er einen Architekten, dem es gelang, ein Institutsgebaude zu entwerfen, das seinen Zweck, aber auch das Bedurfnis nach offentlicher Reprasentation erfullte. Seit seiner feierlichen Eroffnung im Juni 1874 hat das Bernoullianum manche Umgestaltung und Umnutzung erlebt. Zurzeit beherbergt es die Umweltgeowissenschaften, das Imaging and Media Lab sowie die verbliebenen Institutionen der Erdwissenschaften (Geologie-Palaontologie und Mineralogie-Petrographie), deren Schliessung fur 2016 geplant ist. Erneut stehen also Anderungen bevor - ein guter Zeitpunkt, der Geschichte dieses besonderen Gebaudes nachzugehen. Der Historiker Christian Simon zeigt in diesem Buch auf, wie es zur Anstalt fur Physik, Chemie und Astronomie an der Universitat Basel kam und wie sich diese Institute in den ersten Jahrzehnten des Bernoullianums entwickelten. Wie Johann Jacob Stehlin die anspruchsvolle Bauaufgabe loste, stellt die Architekturhistorikerin Dorothee Huber dar. Mit Willem B. Stern kommt ein Bernoullianum-Nutzer zu Wort: Sein Uberblick uber die Geochemie in Basel vermittelt Einblicke in die wissenschaftliche Arbeit und den Forscheralltag im Bernoullianum. Wie sich das Bernoullianum heute prasentiert, zeigen die eigens fur dieses Buch geschaffenen Photographien von Borje Muller.

The Character Gap

The Character Gap

Christian B. Miller

Oxford University Press Inc
2018
sidottu
We like to think of ourselves, our friends, and our families as pretty decent people. We may not be saints, but we are basically good, fairly honest, relatively kind, and mostly trustworthy. One of the central themes of The Character Gap is that we are badly mistaken in thinking this way. In recent years, hundreds of psychological studies have been done which tell a rather different story. We have serious character flaws that prevent us from being good people, many of which we do not even recognize in ourselves. Does this mean that instead we are wretched people, vicious, cruel or hateful? Christian Miller does not argue that this is necessarily the case either. Instead, the more we put our characters to the test, the more we see that we are a mixed bag. On the one hand, most of us as bystanders will do nothing as someone cries out for help. Even worse, under pressure from authority figures we might kill innocent people. Yet it is also true that there will be many times when we selflessly come to the aid of a complete stranger, or don't lie, steal, or cheat even if we could get away with it. As we embark on this journey of putting our characters to the test, some of the main questions will include: What is good character? Why should we bother working to develop a good character? What does the research in psychology suggest about how good (or bad) our characters really are? What secular strategies for improving our characters show a lot of promise? What religious, and specifically Christian, strategies for improving our characters show a lot of promise? In The Character Gap Miller shows not only how mixed our characters tend to be, but also how we can try to bridge the gap between who we are and the virtuous people we should strive to become.

Honesty

Honesty

Christian B. Miller

Oxford University Press Inc
2021
sidottu
Honesty is an important virtue. Parents want to develop it in their children. Close relationships depend upon it. Employers value it in their employees. Surprisingly, however, philosophers have said very little about the virtue of honesty over the past fifty years. In this book, Christian B. Miller aims to draw much greater attention to this neglected virtue. The first part of the book looks at the concept of honesty. It takes up questions such as: What does honesty involve? What are the motives of an honest person? How does practical wisdom relate to honesty? Miller explores what connects the many sides of honesty, including not lying, not stealing, not breaking promises, not misleading others, and not cheating. He argues that the honest person reliably does not intentionally distort the facts as she takes them to be. Miller then examines the empirical psychology of honesty. He takes up the question of whether most people are honest, dishonest, or somewhere in between. Drawing extensively on recent studies of cheating and lying, the model Miller articulates ultimately implies that most of us have a long way to go to reach an honest character. Honesty: The Philosophy and Psychology of a Neglected Virtue provides both a richer understanding of what our character looks like, as well as what the goal of being an honest person actually involves. Miller then leaves it up to us to decide if we want to take steps to shrink the character gap between the two.

Moral Character

Moral Character

Christian B. Miller

Oxford University Press
2015

Christian Miller presents a new account of moral character. Most of our friends, colleagues, and even family members are not virtuous people. They do not have virtues such as compassion, honesty, or courage. But at the same time, they are not vicious people either. They do not have vices such as cruelty, dishonesty, or cowardice. Instead most people today have characters which do not qualify as either virtuous or vicious. They have many positive moral features, but also many negative ones too. Our characters are decidedly mixed, and are much more complex than we might have thought. On the one hand, many of us would kill an innocent person in a matter of minutes under pressure from an authority figure as part of a psychology study. Or we would pretend to not see someone collapse from an apparent heart attack across the street. Or we would make a wide circle around someone's dropped papers rather than stop to help pick them up. Yet it is also true that many of us would help another person when we are by ourselves and hear sounds of a non-ambiguous emergency in the next room. Or we would come to the aid of a friend when feeling empathy for her need, and do so for altruistic rather than egoistic reasons. In Moral Character: An Empirical Theory Miller outlines a new picture of our moral character which involves what are called Mixed Character Traits. This picture can help make sense of how most of us are less than virtuous people but also morally better than the vicious.

Philosophers and psychologists have been hard at work trying to unlock the mysteries of our characters. Unfortunately, their answers have been all over the map. According to one position, every single person has all of the moral virtues, such as modesty and compassion, although to varying degrees. Yet according to another position, no one has any character traits at all since they are simply illusions and do not exist. Hence not one person is honest or compassionate or courageous. And between these extremes, there are plenty of intermediate views. Christian B. Miller argues that not one of these leading positions accurately reflects what most of us are like today. He explores the implications of the Mixed Trait framework-a theory of moral character developed in his previous book, Moral Character: An Empirical Theory. Mixed traits have both morally positive aspects (hence they are not vices) along with morally negative aspects (hence they are not virtues). Miller engages with the other leading positions on the empirical nature of character: situationism, the CAPS model, the Big Five model, and the local trait model. He goes on to apply the Mixed Trait framework to several important topics in ethics, especially the development of an error theory about judgments of character and the challenge faced by virtue ethics from the widespread lack of virtue.

This Element provides an overview of some of the central issues in contemporary moral psychology. It explores what moral psychology is, whether we are always motivated by self-interest, what good character looks like and whether anyone has it, whether moral judgments always motivate us to act, whether what motivates action is always a desire of some kind, and what the role is of reasoning and deliberation in moral judgment and action. This Element is aimed at a general audience including undergraduate students without an extensive background in philosophy.
