Shame and Guilt: Emotions and Social Behavior

Autor June Price Tangney, Ronda L. Dearing
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 dec 2003

Notăm cu interes modul în care lucrarea „Shame and Guilt” reușește să transforme două concepte adesea confundate în obiecte de studiu riguros, bazate pe o metodologie empirică solidă. Structura volumului este organizată progresiv: începe cu o delimitare conceptuală necesară, trece prin metodele de evaluare psihologică și culminează cu aplicații practice în context clinic și social. Autorii, June Price Tangney și Ronda L. Dearing, propun o perspectivă științifică nouă, susținută de date colectate pe parcursul mai multor ani, oferind cititorului nu doar teorie, ci și instrumente concrete de lucru, regăsite în anexele volumului.

Suntem de părere că această abordare este esențială pentru a înțelege cum aceste „emoții ale sinelui” guvernează comportamentul moral și sănătatea psihică. Comparabil cu The Self-Conscious Emotions în rigurozitatea cu care analizează mecanismele psihologice, volumul de față este actualizat pentru nevoile specialiștilor care caută o distincție clară între impactul constructiv al vinovăției și cel adesea distructiv al rușinii. În timp ce alte lucrări, precum cele din seria coordonată de Paul Gilbert, explorează rușinea prin prisma evoluționistă, Tangney și Dearing se concentrează pe dinamica interpersonală și pe modul în care aceste emoții sunt internalizate.

Această lucrare se plasează natural în continuarea preocupărilor lui June Price Tangney pentru studiul sinelui, vizibile și în contribuția sa la Handbook of Self and Identity, Second Edition. Dacă în acea lucrare accentul era pus pe constructul general al identității, în „Shame and Guilt” autoarea izolează componentele afective care dictează calitatea relațiilor noastre. Ritmul este unul academic, dar accesibil, oferind o parcurgere logică de la mecanismele intrapersonale la cele transgeneraționale.

Descriere scurtă

Shame and guilt, while the focus of attention among scholars and clinicians for generations, have only recently been subjected to systematic empirical scrutiny. This volume reports on the growing body of knowledge on these key self-conscious emotions, integrating findings from the authors' original research program with other data emerging from social, clinical, personality, and developmental psychology. Writing in an engaging, accessible style, June Price Tangney and Ronda L. Dearing offer a coherent new scientific perspective on shame and guilt. Compelling evidence is presented to demonstrate that these universally experienced affective phenomena have significant--and surprisingly disparate--implications for many aspects of human functioning, with particular relevance for interpersonal relationships.

Notă biografică

June Price Tangney, PhD, is Professor of Psychology at George Mason University. She received her doctorate in clinical psychology from the University of California-Los Angeles, under the direction of Dr. Seymour Feshbach, after working with Dr. Joseph Masling as an undergraduate at the State University of New York at Buffalo. Dr. Tangney serves on the editorial boards of several professional journals. Her research has been funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development and the John Templeton Foundation.

Ronda L. Dearing, PhD, is a Postdoctoral Associate at the Research Institute on Addictions in Buffalo, New York. She became involved in the study of shame and guilt during her graduate training in clinical psychology at George Mason University, while working as a research assistant with June Tangney. Prior to her training in psychology, Dr. Dearing worked as a medical technologist. Her doctoral dissertation focused on predictors of psychotherapy help-seeking in therapists-in-training. More recent interests include help-seeking in substance abuse, substance abuse treatment approaches, and the influence of shame-proneness on substance use.

Recenzii

Among the human emotions, shame and guilt have been relatively neglected by psychologists and other behavioral scientists. Moreover, work on these topics has been hampered by fuzzy conceptualization, armchair theorizing, and inadequate reliance on empirical research. In one fell swoop, Tangney and Dearing have remedied this situation. Drawing upon a broad array of theory and research in social, personality, developmental, and clinical psychology (including the first author's 15-year program of research), Shame and Guilt is an outstanding work of scholarship, as meticulously researched as it is interesting and readable. It will become an instant classic in the literature on emotion.--Mark R. Leary, PhD, Wake Forest University

This important and readable book represents the culmination of years of work by the world's foremost expert on shame and guilt. In clear, straightforward prose, it brings the reader through the tortured history of ideas on the topic, through the first author's definitive research program and the accumulated findings of many others, and provides a powerful understanding of how these affective experiences shape human life. Shame and guilt are superficially similar, but any reader of this book will quickly grasp how one of them is the 'evil twin' of the other and why they lead into such different directions. This is an indispensable book for anyone wanting an up-to-date overview of the very different natures of these influential emotions.--Roy F. Baumeister, PhD, author of Evil: Inside Human Violence and Cruelty and Meanings of Life.

Shame and guilt are emotions that almost all experience, but upon which few wish to dwell. Tangney and Dearing provide an engaging, bold, and provocative analysis of differences between these emotions, and the correlates of being prone to each of them. Their analysis will be of interest and use to students, teachers, and therapists, among others. The proposed link between shame-proneness and aggression is especially intriguing.--C. Daniel Batson, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Kansas

This book provides a comprehensive yet comprehensible review of work on shame and guilt that stems from the author's extensive knowledge of the field. Because Tangney is a skilled scientist with an interest in applications of research, she provides insight into both the scientific process and the implications for therapy, moral development in childhood, and interpersonal relationships. I recommend the book for graduate students, scientists interested in emotion and moral development, practitioners concerned with issues of shame and guilt, and anyone who wants an authoritative overview of current knowledge in this area.--Nancy Eisenberg, PhD, Department of Psychology, Arizona State University

Tangney and Dearing pull together previous scholarship to present a cohesive, wide-ranging account of the two emotions and the ways they influence human behavior. Their comprehensive, scholarly, and insightful presentation will make this book a standard reference in the field for years to come.
