Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: by A.M. Benis, Sc.D., M.D. You may have heard the conventional wisdom that "many, many genes" contribute to personality, so "there is no such thing as a personality type". We take the contrarian view: We show that a few basic traits are inherited, and that combinations of the traits not only give rise to personality types, but they also explain WHY the types behave as they do. The underlying theory explains the concepts of narcissism, perfectionism, aggression. It clarifies the distinction between personality and temperament, as well as relationships of dominance and submission and of "morbid dependency". A vignette is included that describes a symbiotic relationship called "the power behind the throne", where the Power is a perfectionistic-aggressive individual bent on domination. The book is illustrated with caricatures of well-known individuals, and it includes a synopsis of the NPA model, referencing in particular the pioneering work of Karen Horney. Hardcover, 164 pp., illus., glossary, index.

Download or read book NPA Personality Theory: the Essentials written by A. M. Benis and published by . This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: by A.M. Benis, ScD, MD. This landmark book brings together the essential elements of the NPA personality model. The premise is that every individual has several major personality traits resulting from just a few genes. The traits assort themselves in various combinations to give discrete "personality types" that anyone can learn to recognize. There are three basic traits and about a dozen common personality types. For those not familiar with the NPA model, there is ample introductory material so that the general reader can understand the model and apply it to one's personal life. Included are the twenty original "Case studies" that illustrate how the personality traits are inherited from parents to offspring. Here you will meet Giovanni and Pania, Zoey and Effinem, as well as King Lucifer IV and his many mistresses. Each of the "cases" has an instructive element to make the quantitative aspects of the theory easy to understand. The book concludes with a detailed chapter on the geographic distribution of the NPA traits throughout the world. Finally, there are two appendices: one that clarifies the parallel relationships between "narcissism" and "sadism", and a second appendix that describes the online "NPA personality test" by which the reader can self-diagnose his or her genetic personality type. Paperback, 123 pp., color illustr., charts, maps, glossary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: by A.M. Benis, ScD, MD. The purpose of this book is to allow you, the reader, to see how your personality type was inherited. Our premise is that everyone has several major personality traits resulting from just a few genes, and that we can trace the traits in a family tree. By personality type, we mean that the traits assort themselves - one, two or three traits together. There are three basic traits and about a dozen common personality types. If you are not familiar with the NPA model, the introductory chapters will bring you up to speed quickly. Next, we present twenty "case studies" that illustrate how the personality traits are transmitted. Here, you will meet Giovanni and Pania, Bogdan and Lulu, as well as King Lucifer IV and his many mistresses.

Download or read book The Enigma of Short Parents Who Have Tall Children written by A.M. Benis and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-06-02 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, geneticists have been puzzled by families where both of the parents are short, or of normal stature, but some of the children - even all of the children - are tall. This book presents a solution to the enigma, and it comes from an unlikely source: a theory of personality based on genetic traits. It shows that a simple mechanism, based on classical genetics, can explain some very complicated families where there are short parents, but very tall children alongside of children of normal stature. The author uses case examples to derive the solution to the puzzle. Here you will meet Sylvester and Wendy, Yevgeny who works in the Kremlin, and the Estonian sea captain, Feliks. The illustrative examples show how the dissimilarity of stature in families can have a precise genetic cause. The cause is shown to come from both the father's and mother's side of the family, and is not due to recessive genes or to some vagabond gene from one side of the family. Paperback, 90 pp., synopsis, glossary, illustrated.

Book Synopsis The Mind's Eye by : Peter Jackson-Main
Download or read book The Mind's Eye written by Peter Jackson-Main and published by Aeon Books. This book was released on 2024-10-29 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to the the relationship between the human iris and psychological characteristics. Written by renowned and established iridologist Peter Jackson-Main, this expertly conceived book provides a ground-breaking methodological model of how the iris might be used to understand the energetic, psychological and emotional attributes of a person. The analysis presented in The Mind’s Eye places energy as the central aspect of an individual’s reality. It argues that the physical body is an extension of such energy in the physical realm: a map of one’s intentions in manifesting as a physical being. Jackson-Main situates the irises as this map, which when studied will allow true depth understanding of the human body. The book begins with a brief examination of the epistemological foundations of accepted theory and practice in medicine and healing. It continues as a journey, exploring the development of iris analysis throughout the twentieth century, including information on the possibility of heritable personality traits seen in the iris. Jackson-Main then provides his own perspectives on iris analysis, in a manner which is accessible for both practitioners, and any lay-person looking to learn more about themselves. The book also contains a comprehensive guide to completing an ‘energetic’ iris chart, and suggested exercises of practice. Not only is The Mind’s Eye an indispensable guide for any health practitioners wishing to incorporate behavioural iridology to into their work, but it is also an invitation for all humans to embark on a deeply symbolic journey of self-discovery initiated through the marvels of the eye.
Book Synopsis The Phobia of the Modern World: Nomophobia by : Dr. Özge Enez
Download or read book The Phobia of the Modern World: Nomophobia written by Dr. Özge Enez and published by eKitap Projesi & Cheapest Books. This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the modern world, the mobile phone has become an indispensable part of modern life. On the one hand, the mobile phone allows maintaining interpersonal contacts and fulfilling work or school duties regardless of time and location. It enables individuals to plan their daily routines and their free times. On the other hand, a mobile phone is a tool that can cause several psychological and physical problems. Nomophobia, which is considered the phobia of the modern era, is only one of these problems. In the simplest terms, nomophobia is the fear of being without a mobile phone and the intense anxiety and distress experienced in the absence of a mobile phone. Although technological addictions such as smartphone addiction and internet addiction have been studied extensively in the psychology literature, it is striking that nomophobia is a neglected psychological problem. However, nomophobia is emerging as a common phenomenon among young adults, as most young adults use the mobile phone for about 5 hours a day. Some users define the mobile phone as a friend and the meaning of life. More importantly, prevalence studies have revealed that about half of young adults suffer from nomophobia. Since nomophobia causes many serious consequences such as physical pain, social problems and a decrease in academic achievement, nomophobia studies are important and beneficial especially for the younger generation. This book has been written to emphasize the importance of nomophobia and to provide detailed information about the diagnosis, treatment, prevalence, predictors and symptoms of nomophobia. In addition, this book aimed to conceptualize nomophobia theoretically. Also, based on the theoretical conceptualization, psychological structures that can cause nomophobia have been identified. The theoretical conceptualization has been tested and validated using scientific methods. This book, which contains a comprehensive literature review and scientific research, can shed light on researchers for future nomophobia studies. I also believe that this book will make valuable contributions to the clinical field by providing a better understanding of the factors that should be considered in prevention programs and treatment interventions developed for nomophobia. I hope that scholars, clinicians, and students from a variety of disciplines will find my efforts helpful. Lastly, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my supervisor Prof. Dr. Özden Yalçınkaya Alkar for her constant support, advice, and understanding during my doctoral process. Dr. Özge ENEZ ABOUT AUTHOR: Özge Enez, PhD, graduated from Istanbul University, Department of Psychology in 2009.

Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: A, University of Malta (Ecnonomics, Management, Accountancy), course: Management, language: English, abstract: This study serves as a pilot project utilizing simulation-based research tools to enhance understanding of decision-making processes and judgments in critical, clinical contexts. The aim is to conduct a 'noise audit' simulation to capture decision outcomes and analyze variances resulting from judgmental errors, particularly from a 'non-practitioner' standpoint. A blinded, randomized controlled trial employing Simulation-Based Research (SBR) methods was conducted with control and experimental groups. Participants used a custom web-application to self-report mood, score triage judgments on fictitious emergency cases, provide justifications, and share personality traits. Sessions were held at hospital administration buildings and university campuses, with no interaction with academic personnel on setup. The study explores the concept of smoke detectors in managerial decision-making, recognizing errors and judgments as inherent to decision processes faced by organizational leaders and decision-makers. Bias and noise, identified as contributors to errors, are examined, with bias referring to systematic distortion and noise to variability or randomness in decision information. Empirical studies have demonstrated their impact, particularly in medical decision-making. Strategies such as bias recognition training and noise reduction through multiple information sources can mitigate human error. The study aims to deepen understanding of decision-making in critical contexts through simulation-based research tools.
