After a brief account of how they came about, precises of the three films are presented to highlight major differences among them. These are followed by descriptions of post-filming reactions and interactions of the participants—Gloria Szymanski, Carl Rogers, Fritz Perls, and Albert Ellis. Consideration then is given to the possible impact of the “Gloria Films” on Americans' acceptance of psychotherapy as a pathway to self-improvement that competed with more longstanding views of psychotherapy as applied to the alleviation of serious mental illness. It is also argued that more recently, the films have been used to demonstrate how not to do psychotherapy and to reveal how psychotherapy can exploit as well as help. This work is a close study of the films that attempts to explain their enduring relevance and impact, while also providing an example of how changing historical, biographical, and sociocultural contexts must be considered in any commendations or criticisms concerning applied psychological practices such as psychotherapy. Particular attention is paid to Gloria Szymanski as central to the films' enduring impact.","PeriodicalId":46047,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences","volume":"62 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/jhbs.70062","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148324927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Emotion-Focused Therapy: A Perspective From Traditional Chinese Medicine","authors":"Wan-chi Wong","doi":"10.1002/jhbs.70057","DOIUrl":"10.1002/jhbs.70057","url":null,"abstract":"In clarifying that Spinoza is not the first person to share insights about the necessity of a contrary, strong emotion in transforming an emotion, the present article focuses on expounding this perspective as embedded in the classical texts of Chinese medicine, along with illustrative examples of emotion-focused therapy in the historical case records of Chinese master physicians. Key features of this kind of emotion-focused therapy include (1) designing a new scenario that provides the client with an embodied alternate experience in the real world, thereby eliciting a strong emotion capable of overcoming the previously indulged one, and (2) implementing the scenario through collaboration with a person close to the client, or by securing the client's full trust in the physician. A comparison between the role of emotions in the holistic system of traditional Chinese medicine and the philosophical system of Spinoza, as presented in Ethics, reveals more variability than commonality. Even though the role of emotion in human functioning is recognized in Spinoza's system of thought, his approach to emotion regulation is fundamentally rationalistic. A closer review of contemporary psychological science and psychotherapy further reveals that cognition plays an intriguing role in the regulation and transformation of emotions. Against this background, the contributions and limitations of emotion-focused therapy in traditional Chinese medicine are evaluated, followed by the elucidation of its principles and the consideration of its integration with advancements in contemporary psychotherapy.","PeriodicalId":46047,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences","volume":"62 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/jhbs.70057","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148259978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Psychologist, educator, and active participant in the women's rights movement of the 1910s–1930s, Puffer enrolled at Radcliffe College in 1897/1898 and earned her Ph.D. in 1902. She advocated for women's desire to balance marriage and career in several classic articles concerning the ‘woman question’ (1922 and 1929), specifically focusing on the continuity of women's education. More than 20 years after the publication of her book, The Psychology of Beauty (1905a), she drew on psychological concepts and methodology to support the effectiveness of her Institute's strategies, which aimed to help women integrate their professional and family lives. Echoing Mary Parker Follett, Puffer asserted that social progress arises from adopting modern psychology's methodologies to create an environment that encourages the integration of women's interests. She insisted that a desirable environment could make such integrated conduct a ‘reflex response’—meaning it became possible and natural for women not to need to choose between motherhood and a flexible professional career. Her intertwining of aesthetic psychology and social issues resonates with (and indeed empowers) pragmatist conceptions of progress that presuppose the necessity of recognising individuals' concrete needs and capacities and of creating social mechanisms that enable those capacities to fulfil those needs effectively.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":46047,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences","volume":"62 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148165030","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, I argue that the history of LD is best understood not through the emergence of a diagnostic label, but through the evolution of its methods of identification. By tracing the rise and decline of the IQ–achievement discrepancy model amid shifting legal, psychometric, and policy contexts, I aim to show how declining faith in IQ tests as measures of potential threatened the credibility of LD as a viable construct for identifyin and treating “unexpected” underachievement. Abandoning discrepancy and embracing more pragmatic approaches like response to intervention (RTI) reflected political compromises as much as discrepancy had represented decades before. But it also represented an effort by experts in the LD field to protect the scientific integrity of LD by more effectively targeting its most recognizable characteristic—the failure to learn in comparison to age-level peers. In the era of standards and accountability, this shift reflected the priorities of education reformers and the legislative impetus of No Child Left Behind. But it also represented a profound reorientation of the measurement of unexpected underachievement. By supplanting an increasingly discredited metric of intellectual potential (IQ), RTI and similar methods helped reinterpret LD as a specifically skills-based construct unrelated to perennially ambiguous notions of intelligence.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":46047,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences","volume":"62 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148174406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
