Cognitive Complexity and the Affective Stimulus Values of Photographed Faces
25 male and 25 female college students rank ordered 14 photographs of male faces from least liked to most liked and then rated the 4 least liked and the 4 best liked photographs on 10 scales, according to the procedure described by Bieri, Atkins, Briar, Leaman, Miller, and Tripoldi (1966). For both sex groups and for two types of scores, cognitive complexity was significantly greater for ratings of least liked photographs than for ratings of best…
Belief in the Omnipotence of Love
The possibility of loving one's own love and the existence of an unverbalized belief in the omnipotence of one's love are utilized to account for one's being contented with merely thinking about and talking about one's “love for humanity” without doing anything to improve the human condition
Self-Reported Masculinity-Femininity as Related to Self-Esteem
A test was made of the prediction that “masculine” males will report higher self-esteem than “feminine” males and that “feminine” females will report higher self-esteem than “masculine” females. The prediction was supported for 33 undergraduate males but not for 45 females
Abnormal Orientations
Suggestions are made for revising psychiatric terminology in line with current criticisms of the medical model. “Orientation” is substituted, where possible, for terms such as “disorder,” “illness,” “disturbance,” “reaction,” and “behavior.” Other psychological terms are suggested as substitutions for psychiatric terms in cases where “orientation” seems inappropriate
The Primacy of Narcissism
Arguments are presented in support of Freud's position that narcissism developmentally precedes object love. Narcissism in mature human relationships can be exemplified by the case of being in love
Perceptual correlates of stereotypical masculinity-femininity
Test of a Szondi assumption by means of M‐F photographs
A Proposed Heterosexual Theory of Delusions
Following critical reviews of Freud's homosexual theory of paranoia, Ovesey's pseudohomosexual theory, and Cameron's biosocial theory, a proposed theory of delusion formation is presented, based on the hypothesis that the heterosexual incestuous conflict may be resolved through the development of delusions
Psychological testing
