Ninety-three fathers of children with CHARGE and 35 fathers of typically developing children completed an online survey. Overall, fathers of children with CHARGE were resilient, and they evaluated their work, friendships, and general contentment similar to evaluations by fathers of typically developing children. However, they did report a drop in the quantity and quality of their friendships following the birth of their child. While they performed caretaking duties as often as fathers of children with other disabilities, they did not view their contributions as being as useful. Fathers of children with CHARGE were quite happy and satisfied with life.","PeriodicalId":410014,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Individual Psychology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127315987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Politicians and political parties wage ideological warfare, using rhetoric, misinformation, and attempts to silence and belittle one another in competitive strife. These politicized forms of striving for superiority are—within an Adlerian framework—predictable results of a lack of Gemeinschaftsgefühl, or \"community feeling.\" This article provides an Adlerian conceptualization of divisive sociopolitical trends and identifies their manifestations in current political discourse. Specific attention is given to the use of politicized contempt as a mistaken method of competitive striving. The article also proposes that the Adlerian community must model healthy political engagement by acting out Gemeinschaftsgefühl in political discourse with each other and the community at large.","PeriodicalId":410014,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Individual Psychology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133935928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adler asserted he was never a disciple of Freud, and Freud maintained that Adler was his follower who broke away from him. However, the truth is much more complicated. Because of political strategies and other factors, the narrative has changed over time, morphing from the original true story, which is that Freud and Adler disagreed about many aspects of the two theories of psychoanalysis and Adler's own Individual Psychology, and that eventually led to Freud's calculated disavowal of Adler in 1911. Through the careful exploration of available contemporary texts and archival data, mainly from the Minutes of the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society and other correspondence, Adler and Freud's complex personal relationship and theoretical disagreements can be traced throughout the years.","PeriodicalId":410014,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Individual Psychology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123255153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
