[Forms of organization and means of regulation of the self system]
1Abteilung für Psychosomatik und Psychotherapie, Universitäts-Krankenhaus Eppendorf, Hamburg.
Abstract:
Using a recently developed self-inventory (Narzissmusinventar) 1277 patients suffering from neurotic and psychosomatic disorders have been examined. By constructing scales of high reliability the items of this new questionnaire could be grouped according to eighteen aspects, which cover modes of organization and regulation of the self, as far as these are available to introspection. Their contents will be described here, and a discussion with regards to some considerations towards a theory of the self is presented.
