MODES OF EXPERIENCING INTERPERSONAL RELATIONS, FOCUSING ON THE DEVELOPMENT, PERCEPTION, AND INTEGRATION OF EXPERIENCE THAT CHARACTERIZES DELINQUENT PERSONALITY.

Abstract

PSYCHOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT IS DESCRIBED IN TERMS OF SEVEN SUCCESSIVE INTEGRATIONS. EACH STAGE OR LEVEL IS DEFINED BY A CRUCIAL INTERPERSONAL PROBLEM WHICH MUST BE SOLVED BEFORE FURTHER PROGRESS TOWARD MATURITY CAN OCCUR. THIS BOOKLET DISCUSSES THE SEVEN INTEGRATION LEVELS IN TERMS OF DEVELOPMENTAL ASPECTS, GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS AND PROBLEMS OF ADULTS OR JUVENILE DELINQUENTS WHO HAVE REMAINED AT SPECIFIC INTEGRATION LEVELS,.
