Interaction and interdependence of somatic organism and psyche in childhood
Insights
The human psyche and somatic organism are interconnected, with the psyche developing through conditioned reflexes and environmental influence. This interplay shapes personality and social humanization, with clinical examples illustrating somatopsychic and psychosomatic processes.
Area of Science:
- Psychology
- Neuroscience
- Human Biology
Background:
- The human somatic organism is a defined morphological system.
- The psyche is an individually developing functional structure influenced by environment and internal processing.
- Understanding the interplay between the body and mind is crucial for human development.
Purpose of the Study:
- To clarify the interconnection and interdependence of the human somatic organism and psyche.
- To discuss the nature of the somatic organism and the psyche.
- To explore the development and manifestation of psychic functions.
Main Methods:
- Discussion of conditioned and unconditioned reflexes.
- Description of psychic development mechanisms.
- Conceptualization of the human psyche's structure, including conscious and unconscious functions.
Main Results:
- Personality is presented as a systemic manifestation of the somatic organism and psyche interconnection.
- The interaction between psyche and soma leads to the socialized humanization of vital processes.
- Clinical examples demonstrate somatopsychic and psychosomatic interconnections.
Conclusions:
- The study provides insights into the essence of personality, distinguishing 'actual personality'.
- Findings have implications for educational purposes, highlighting the importance of understanding mind-body connections.
- The research underscores the integrated nature of human existence, encompassing both biological and psychological dimensions.
Abstract:
In order to clarify the interconnection and interdependence of the human somatic organism and psyche, their nature is discussed. The somatic organism is a specific morphological functional system, developing in every being. The psyche is a functional structure developing individually in the course of ontogeny, under the effect of internal processing influenced by the environment. The function of conditioned and unconditioned reflexes is discussed including the way in which the conditioned reflexes are built up on unconditioned ones. The mechanism is described, by which the psyche develops in the individual and how its functions manifest themselves. A concept is discussed concerning the structure of the human psyche, the system and nature of the conscious and unconscious functions. The personality is the manifestation of the interconnections and the formation into a system of the somatic organism and the psyche. This interconnection brings about the socialized humanization of the vital processes in man living in society. A concept concerning the essence of personality is discussed, emphasizing the "actual personality" and describing its structure. Clinical examples are given concerning the interconnection of somatic organism and psyche and the somatopsychic and psycho-somatic processes, and conclusions are drawn for the purposes of education.
