Development of a measurement tool to characterize constructive and destructive attitudes of police officers during conflict with civilians
Police work involves daily conflicts with high potential for violence, often occurring in groups with differing values. Conflict management ranges from destructive methods, causing maximum harm and rejecting compromise, to constructive approaches that reduce escalation and promote positive relations. A field study conducted among 229 police officers sought to develop stable scales for measuring officers’ destructive and constructive tendencies, e…
Implementing a constructive struggle approach
This article describes the contribution and insights of adopting practices that support a strategy of non‐violent resistance, and a constructive conflict approach (constructive struggle) that endeavors to minimize physical and psychological harm, and prevent escalation that leads to destructive conflict. It describes the exposure of security forces to such practices in the context of the protracted Israeli‐Palestinian conflict. The article demons…
Non-violent resistance parental training versus treatment as usual for children and adolescents with severe tyrannical behavior
Contrary to our expectation, NVR was not superior to TAU in reducing parental stress at completion for parents of children with STB. However, NVR showed positive outcomes in the follow-up, pointing to the importance to implement parental strategies and following this population over longer time periods in future projects. Clinical trial registration : Clinicaltrials.gov, identifier NCT05567276
Non‐violent resistance and family accommodation
The goal of this study is to integrate two areas in recent clinical theory, research, and practice: family accommodation and non‐violent resistance (NVR). Family accommodation describes changes that family members make to their own behavior, to help their relative who is dealing with psychopathology to avoid or alleviate distress related to the disorder. Rapidly growing research on family accommodation has established its high prevalence and nega…

Feindbilder – Psychologie der Dämonisierung
Der Dalai Lama schreibt im Vorwort zu diesem Buch, dass jedes menschliche Wesen nach Glück verlangt und ein Recht darauf hat. Doch Disharmonie, Streit und Gewalt bringen dem Menschen immer wieder Leid. Unversehens geraten wir in Prozesse der Dämonisierung des Anderen, der anderen Gruppe, des anderen Volkes. Wir nehmen das Gegenüber nur noch in negativem Licht wahr, machen es zum Monster, das es mit aller Macht zu bekämpfen gilt.Die psychotherapeu…
Training in Nonviolent Resistance for Foster Parents
Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate a training in non-violent resistance (NVR) for foster parents who take care of a foster child (ages 6-18) with externalizing problem behavior. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was used to compare an intervention group (NVR, n = 31) with a treatment as usual control group (TAU, n = 31). The NVR-intervention consists of ten weekly home sessions. Measures regarding behavioral problems in foster c…
The continuity principle
The continuity principle stipulates that through all stages of disaster, management and treatment should aim at preserving and restoring functional, historical, and interpersonal continuities, at the individual, family, organization, and community levels. Two misconceptions work against this principle and lead to decisional errors: the “abnormalcy bias” which results in underestimating victims' ability to cope with disaster, and the “normalcy bia…
