Dialogical self strategies of self-organization: psychotherapy and restructuring of internal management
A identidade tem sido um conceito central na literatura em psicologia e na forma como as diferentes abordagens terapĂŞuticas tĂŞm concebido os processos de mudança. Entre as inĂşmeras perspectivas desenvolvidas sobre essa dimensĂŁo do ser humano, destacamos o paradigma dialĂłgico que tem vindo a influenciar de forma crescente a teoria e prática em psicoterapia. Segundo esta perspectiva, a funcionalidade psicolĂłgica está relacionada com o modo como os indivĂduos conseguem articular e colocar em diálogo produtivo as suas várias vozes ou posições de identidade. Neste artigo apresentamos uma revisĂŁo da literatura sobre as estratĂ©gias que subjazem a essa capacidade auto-organizadora do sistema identitário e sobre as diretrizes que poderĂŁo orientar uma intervenção terapĂŞutica dialĂłgica quando essa capacidade se torna disfuncional.Self-concept has been playing a crucial role in psychological literature and in the way the different therapeutic approaches conceive the processes of change. From the diverse perspectives developed about this human dimension, we emphasise the dialogical paradigm that has been increasingly influential in the psychotherapeutic theory and practice. According to the dialogical perspective the psychological well-being is dependent on the way individuals articulate and maintain productive dialogues between the different voices of the self or “I-Positions”. In this paper we present a review of the literature on the strategies that underlie this self-regulatory ability of the self-system and the guidelines of the dialogical therapeutic intervention that could be used when these self-regulatory strategies become dysfunctional.(undefined
Probability distributions of the work in the 2D-Ising model
Probability distributions of the magnetic work are computed for the 2D Ising
model by means of Monte Carlo simulations. The system is first prepared at
equilibrium for three temperatures below, at and above the critical point. A
magnetic field is then applied and grown linearly at different rates.
Probability distributions of the work are stored and free energy differences
computed using the Jarzynski equality. Consistency is checked and the dynamics
of the system is analyzed. Free energies and dissipated works are reproduced
with simple models. The critical exponent is estimated in an usual
manner.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figures. Comments are welcom
Triple minima in free energy of semiflexible polymers
We study the free energy of the worm-like-chain model, in the
constant-extension ensemble, as a function of the stiffness for finite chains
of length L. We find that the polymer properties obtained in this ensemble are
"qualitatively" different from those obtained using constant-force ensembles.
In particular we find that as we change the stiffness parameter, the polymer
makes a transition from the flexible to the rigid phase and there is an
intermediate regime of parameter values where the free energy has three minima
and both phases are stable. This leads to interesting features in the
force-extension curves.Comment: Published version, 4 pages, 5 figures, revte
