Abstract:
Schema integration is the task of integrating several local schemata into one global database schema. It is a complex, error-prone and time consuming task. Problems arise in recognizing and resolving problems, such as differences and similarities, between two schemata. Problems also arise in integrating static and dynamic schemata. In this thesis, three research topics are addressed: Maintaining Vocabulary in Schema Integration, Integration of Static Schemata and Integration of Static and Dynamic Schemata, while applying the notation in the Enterprise Modeling approach. In Maintaining Vocabulary in Schema Integration an analysis of what semantic loss is and why it occurs in schema integration is conducted. Semantic loss is a problem that should be avoided because both concepts and dependencies might be lost. In the thesis, it is argued that concepts and dependencies should be retained as long as possible in the schemata. This should facilitate user involvement since the users’ vocabulary is retained even after resolving similarities and differences between two schemata. In Integration of Static Schemata two methods are developed. These methods facilitate recognition and resolution of similarities and differences between two conceptual database schemata.  By applying the first method, problems between two schemata can be recognized that otherwise could pass unnoticed; by applying the second method, problems can be resolved without causing semantic loss by retaining concepts and dependencies in the schemata. In Integration of Static and Dynamic Schemata a method on how to integrate static and dynamic schemata is developed. In the method, focus is put on pre- and post-conditions and how to map these to states and state changes in the database. By applying the method, states that are important for the database can be designed and integrated into the conceptual database schema. Also, by applying the method, active database rules can be designed and integrated into the conceptual database schema.

Abstract:
The following is a study of what may be the most puzzling and yet, at the same time, most significant aspect of Kant's system: his theory of schemata. I will argue that Kant's commentators have failed to make sense of this aspect of Kant's philosophy. A host of questions have been left unanswered, and the doctrine remains a puzzle. While this study is not an attempt to construct a complete, satisfying account of the doctrine, it should be seen as a step somewhere on the road of doing so, leaving much work to be done. I will contend that one way that we may shed light on Kant's doctrine of schemata is to reconsider the manner in which Kant employs schemata in his mathematics. His use of the schemata there may provide some inkling into the nature of transcendental schemata and, in doing so, provide some hints at how the transcendental schemata allow our representations of objects to be subsumed under the pure concepts of the understanding. In many ways, then, the aims of the study are modest: instead of a grand-scale interpretation of Kant's philosophy, a detailed textual analysis and interpretation are presented of his doctrine of schemata. Instead of providing definitive answers, I will suggest clues as to how to begin to answer the questions that previous commentators have left unanswered about the doctrine.

Full text
Abstract:
The manner in which teachers teach is generally acknowledged to be controlled by various schemata which encapsulate all of what they "know" about teaching. The purpose of this study was to explore the nature and extent of the schemata of pre-service teachers in an effort to gain insights into the reasons why they behave as they do in the classroom; and from this to gain further insights into ways to improve teacher training. The study was based on in-depth case studies of four pre-service English language teachers in Singapore. Data collected included all of the lesson plans which they prepared during the 10-week practicum; transcriptions of four lessons observed by the supervisor-cum-researcher; and extensive textual information arising out of journals, pre- and post-conferencing of lessons, and interviews. Findings indicated that pre-service teacher behaviour during the practicum is largely a function of five major schemata related to their view of pupils, subject, methodology, school environment, and teaching in general, all of which influence individual teaching style. Classroom dilemmas may be seen as arising out of value conflicts which may exist between these various schemata. The research also revealed that lessons are structured as a goal-driven hierarchy comprising five levels of increasing pedagogical abstraction. The topmost level or (1) lesson agenda, representing the basic overall objective of the lesson, subsumes lower levels corresponding to (2) lesson phases which comprise basic instructional functions such as focusing, clarifying, reviewing, etc. (3) phase segments which represent the sequential steps involved in effecting a lesson phase; (4) segment chunks which comprise teaching cycles or other topic-related groups of speech acts; and finally (5) speech acts as the most primitive elements of classroom discourse. In addition to the planned elements of a lesson, various unplanned lesson interrupts occur during presentation of the lesson due to the need to maintain class control, make repairs to faulty instructions or explanations, give advice, or engage in informal interactions with the pupils. The manner in which preservice teachers handle these impromptu elements of a lesson is a major reflection of their "teaching style". At a more detailed level of analysis, classroom discourse parameters may be assigned to each speech act to characterise it in terms of teacher/class interaction, type of speech act, focus or aspect, degree of continuity with other parts of the lesson, and the teaching aids and materials being utilised at the time. Statistical analysis of these discourse parameters provides useful insights into other aspects of "teaching style". The above findings have various implications for teacher training methodology. Recognition of the role of schemata can help to promote self-awareness on the part of student teachers as to the nature of the factors which influence their teaching style. Explicit recognition and definition of the five pedagogical levels of the lesson hierarchy, development of a typology of lesson phases and interrupts, and a means of carrying out in-depth analysis of classroom discourse at the speech act level provide the teacher trainer with useful tools for the observation, evaluation, and discussion of pre-service teaching behaviour.

Abstract:
Extract-Transform-Load (ETL) tools are used for the creation, maintenance, and evolution of data warehouses, data marts, and operational data stores. ETL workflows populate those systems with data from various data sources by specifying and executing a DAG of transformations. Over time, hundreds of individual workflows evolve as new sources and new requirements are integrated into the system. The maintenance and evolution of large-scale ETL systems requires much time and manual effort. A key problem is to understand the meaning of unfamiliar attribute labels in source and target databases and ETL transformations. Hard-to-understand attribute labels lead to frustration and time spent to develop and understand ETL workflows. We present a schema decryption technique to support ETL developers in understanding cryptic schemata of sources, targets, and ETL transformations. For a given ETL system, our recommender-like approach leverages the large number of mapped attribute labels in existing ETL workflows to produce good and meaningful decryptions. In this way we are able to decrypt attribute labels consisting of a number of unfamiliar few-letter abbreviations, such as UNP_PEN_INT, which we can decrypt to UNPAID_PENALTY_INTEREST. We evaluate our schema decryption approach on three real-world repositories of ETL workflows and show that our approach is able to suggest high-quality decryptions for cryptic attribute labels in a given schema.
Extract-Transform-Load (ETL) Tools werden häufig beim Erstellen, der Wartung und der Weiterentwicklung von Data Warehouses, Data Marts und operationalen Datenbanken verwendet. ETL Workflows befüllen diese Systeme mit Daten aus vielen unterschiedlichen Quellsystemen. Ein ETL Workflow besteht aus mehreren Transformationsschritten, die einen DAG-strukturierter Graphen bilden. Mit der Zeit entstehen hunderte individueller ETL Workflows, da neue Datenquellen integriert oder neue Anforderungen umgesetzt werden müssen. Die Wartung und Weiterentwicklung von großen ETL Systemen benötigt viel Zeit und manuelle Arbeit. Ein zentrales Problem ist dabei das Verständnis unbekannter Attributnamen in Quell- und Zieldatenbanken und ETL Transformationen. Schwer verständliche Attributnamen führen zu Frustration und hohen Zeitaufwänden bei der Entwicklung und dem Verständnis von ETL Workflows. Wir präsentieren eine Schema Decryption Technik, die ETL Entwicklern das Verständnis kryptischer Schemata in Quell- und Zieldatenbanken und ETL Transformationen erleichtert. Unser Ansatz berücksichtigt für ein gegebenes ETL System die Vielzahl verknüpfter Attributnamen in den existierenden ETL Workflows. So werden gute und aussagekräftige "Decryptions" gefunden und wir sind in der Lage Attributnamen, die aus unbekannten Abkürzungen bestehen, zu "decrypten". So wird z.B. für den Attributenamen UNP_PEN_INT als Decryption UNPAIN_PENALTY_INTEREST vorgeschlagen. Unser Schema Decryption Ansatz wurde für drei ETL-Repositories evaluiert und es zeigte sich, dass unser Ansatz qualitativ hochwertige Decryptions für kryptische Attributnamen vorschlägt.

Abstract:
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Third Edition, Revised (DSM-III-R) published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) in 1987 is currently the primary tool used by counselors in clinical settings for diagnosing clients' psychological and behavioral problems. Beginning with the third edition of the manual (DSM-III; APA, 1968) a multiaxial process for diagnosis was introduced to encourage a biopsychosocial perspective of client's problems.This study was designed to investigate if alterations in diagnosis on Axis IV and V could further encourage a biopsychosocial perspective. It was designed to imitate the rapid diagnostic process that takes place in many clinical settings. In the present study, the criterion for a biopsychosocial perspective was the maintenance of neutral perceptions and unbiased hypothesis-testing strategies following diagnosis of a client.Twenty-four counseling psychology trainees participated in the study. The counselor trainees diagnosed a client after listening to approximately 20 minutes of an audio-tape of an initial assessment interview. The 12 counselor trainees in the control group diagnosed the client using the standard multiaxial format for diagnosis. The 12 counselor trainees in the experimental group diagnosed the client using an alternative format which encouraged a focus on positive aspects of the client and the client's environment.The counselor trainees completed the Impression Formation Questionnaire to assess their perceptions of the client. They then wrote 12 questions they would ask the client in the next counseling session. These questions constituted their hypothesis-testing strategies for their diagnoses on Axis I and Axis II.The counselor trainees in both groups maintained primarily neutral perceptions of the client as measured by the IFQ. The counselor trainees in both groups favored confirmatory hypothesis-testing strategies when assigned to groups based on their hypothesis-testing strategy score (p < .05).The results of this study indicated that the standard and alternative multiaxial formats for diagnosis may encourage neutral perceptions of a client when counselors must diagnose the client based on very little information. Neither format for diagnosis was successful, however, in discouraging a biased, confirmatory search for information.

Abstract:
In the linguistic study of humor, research has largely been centered around the formulation of models and theories or the dissecting and categorization of jokes. Because of the often difficult-to-categorize aspects of verbal jokes, much time has been spent trying to create taxonomies for humor types and mechanisms. Linguists such as Raskin and Attardo have sought to categorize all verbal humor according to various functional elements (Attardo & Raskin, 1991). Such elements include, but are not limited to, the logical mechanism that drives the humor in the joke or the situation where the joke takes place. These categorizations are helpful in understanding the potential components of a given joke. However, relatively few studies have sought to quantify and qualify the distribution of these components across real-world data. This study seeks to understand the distribution of some of these categorizations laid out by Raskin and Attardo across joke topics, namely pun wordplay and narrative strategy. To do this, an original 100,000 word joke corpus was designed and compiled consisting of four joke topics: Marriage, Politics, Animals, and Food. Through some manual sorting and Python programming, jokes were labeled according to wordplay strategy and narrative structure. A subsequent statistical analysis was carried out to determine whether there exists a pattern of specific joke strategies when dealing with children's humor versus adult humor.

Abstract:
This study explores junior secondary students’ schemata on a line reflection construction task, the research of which was conducted in a secondary school in Hong Kong. The theories drawn on in this study come from the literature on theories of schemata and the corresponding knowledge embedded within, namely conceptual knowledge, manipulation and procedural knowledge. The research built on existing theories on schemata and attempted to categorize the different kinds of schemata as well as investigating the relationship between them among four junior secondary students in the construction of a line reflection task. The study also tried to find out how and why students manipulated in a line reflection construction task and the extent to which manipulation could lead learners to successfully tackle the task. This study researched on four junior secondary students, drawing mainly on qualitative data used in the analysis, including task-based interview with the employment of think aloud method in a designed line reflection construction task, as well as study of students’ drawings. The data analysis mainly focused on three areas. First, the analysis of each of the four cases was conducted by looking into the different kinds of schemata possessed by the student informants. Second, analysis of the different knowledge (conceptual knowledge, manipulation and procedural knowledge) embedded in the schema possessed by the student informants was done. Third, synthesis was drawn upon the analysis made in an attempt to answer the research questions posed in this study. Findings from the study confirmed the core role conceptual knowledge plays in the establishment of a learner’s schemata. Findings also revealed that different learners may possess different schemata towards the same concept such as the concept of same distance. When investigating the manipulative actions employed by student informants, it was found that there is a reciprocal relationship between a learner’s conceptual knowledge and his manipulation. This is also apparent in cases where there was a misconception in the learner’s schemata. The research also found that students exercised manipulation very differently and these manipulative actions were largely informed by their corresponding conceptual knowledge. With regard to why they manipulated, the research revealed reasons including manipulation for exploration, manipulation for representation and manipulation for verification. Based on the observation and analysis done in the four cases, it was found that manipulation helped students in the completion of the task to different extents. Learners with weaker conceptual knowledge in line reflection benefited more from the manipulation done in the construction task. These findings have implications for the teaching and learning of line reflection. Teachers are suggested to consider introducing using manipulative tools when approaching the teaching of line reflection, especially when they are dealing with students without rich conceptual knowledge in the area. The effectiveness of having hands-on experience implies that simply teaching definition and inviting learners to rote-learn does not necessarily lead to effective acquisition of knowledge in the Mathematics topic of line reflection.

Abstract:
Volume I includes a systematic literature review which aimed to synthesise and evaluate all research testing the role of early maladaptive schemas or core beliefs in depression as proposed by cognitive theory. The findings neither prove nor disprove the relationship. The empirical paper aimed to test the association between early maladaptive schemas in depression using a cross-sectional questionnaire design with diagnostic interviews. Early maladaptive schemas were associated with depression, did not moderate the relationship between stress and depression but did partially mediated the relationship between life stress (but not diabetes distress) and depressive symptoms. The findings partially support the role of early maladaptive schemas in depression. The executive summary summarises the systematic literature review and the empirical paper for stakeholders. Volume II includes the following clinical practice reports (i) a cognitive behavioural and psychodynamic formulation of obsessive compulsive disorder, (ii) a single-case experimental design evaluation of cognitive behavioural therapy for depression, (iii) an evaluation of compliance to depression guidelines, (iv) a cognitive behavioural formulation and intervention for obsessive compulsive disorder, and (v) an abstract summarising an oral report of cognitive behavioural therapy for social anxiety and traumatic brain injury.

In the paper a technology is presented for the application of irregular hierarchical triangular meshes arising from refinement by only dividing elements into four congruent triangles. The paper describes the necessary data structures and data structure management, the principles and algorithms of refining and coarsening the mesh, and also a specific assembly technique for the FE equations system.

Full text
Abstract:
Psychologists involved in the treatment of chronic pain have increasingly emphasised the importance of cognitive factors (Turk and Rudy, 1986). Most pain management programmes (PMP's) incorporate a cognitive-behavioural component that, for example, teaches patients to identify thoughts that might lower their mood, exacerbate their pain, or interfere with their willingness to engage in rehabilitative behaviours. These treatment elements are derived from the cognitive-behavioural model of depression developed by Beck (1967), which states that depressed mood is maintained by negative automatic thoughts that arise out of the patient's dysfunctional schemata. Schemata are cognitive structures that organise our beliefs, attitudes and assumptions, and help the individual to construe themselves and their world. While there has been some research suggesting that dysfunctional schemata can interfere with outcome in cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) for depression (Jarrett et al., 1991) no similar research has been conducted examining their influence on outcome from a PMP. In this study, 70 patients, who were attending seven consecutive pain management groups, were asked to complete two measures of dysfunctional schemata (The Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale, DAS: Weissman and Beck, 1978, and the Young Schema Questionnaire - short form, YSQ-SF: Young, 1990). These measures were supplemented by two sets of informant ratings (provided by a close friend or relative and by the psychologists leading the PMP) of the patients' schemata. Outcome measures used to assess the effectiveness of the PMP include self-reported mood disturbance, disability, self-efficacy, readiness to engage in pain management, and functional ability (as measured by physiotherapist ratings). These outcome measures are collected routinely, at the beginning and end of each PMP. The associations between measures of dysfunctional schemata and the differences between pre- and post-PMP outcome scores were examined. The results are discussed in relation to previous research findings, and conclusions drawn relating to the findings of the study.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examined psychopathy, cognitive schemata and affect in forensic and community populations. This was to identify whether cognitive schemata and affect would assist in the assessment of psychopathy. Study one was conducted on 38 male high secure hospital patients and 38 male prisoners. It focused on the assessment of psychopathy and cognitive schemata. It was predicted that psychopathy would be positively related to negative schemata and early maladaptive schemata and negatively related to positive schemata. This prediction was supported with the exception of Early Maladaptive Schemata. Study two was conducted on 38 male high secure hospital patients and 38 male prisoners and also examined psychopathy and affect. It further explored positive schemata that was significant in study one. It was predicted that psychopathy would be positively related to errors on affective word sentence completion with slower response times. These predictions were not supported. The third study included 101 male prisoners and 108 male university students. An assessment of cognitive schema and affect was also developed. A further core prediction was that psychopathy would have a positive relationship with detached affect and results supported this. Contrary to prediction, it was found that psychopathy was higher in the student group compared to the prisoner group. Study four further explored the core predictions and included an examination of psychopathy, cognitive schema, affect and the 'Big Five' in 174 prisoners and 200 male students. The predictions were supported that psychopathy would be negatively related to positive cognitive schemata and positively related to negative cognitive schemata, in both groups. The predictions that detached affect would be significant to psychopathy was again supported. Contrary to prediction psychopathy was found to be higher in the student group. The current research indicates that cognitive schemata and affect are related to psychopathy. It also shows that similar cognitive profiles of psychopathy are demonstrated in prison and student groups that relate to affect. Further, it highlights the neglected role of positive schemata in psychopathy. Future research could consider the role of positive schemata and refine the cognitive profile in psychopathy, it could also examine the newly proposed cognitive behavioural model of psychopathy.

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the matter of convention in Broadway songs of the song and dance era. Composers worked with implicit, regular procedures in the commercial aesthetic of the 1920s and 1930s New York theater industry. However, discussions of formal convention in this repertoire have not gone much beyond the identification of AABA and ABAC forms. I explore how hypermeter and conventional formal layouts act as schemata. Through this lens, I advocate for an in-time, listener-based approach to form, attending to the stylistically learned projections and anticipations. Later on, I unpack many of the conventional patterns underlying the ABAC form. I argue that the ABAC form provides a template for climactic musical narratives, which places climaxes near the end of the form. Lastly, I focus on AABA form where I highlight many salient conventions of the AABA form and draw historical connections to AABA forms in rock and jazz.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the application of personal construct psychology and the repertory grid to performance management in a technical consulting organisation. The research examines what is important for a manager in assessing work performance and how each manager's mental model for performance compares with his/her peers. Managers acting as raters are the critical link in the observation and assessment of performance and in the feedback process. Rater observations and judgements are affected by their personal mental models regarding what is important. These views may or may not accord with those of their peers, resulting in inconsistency and unfair assessments, or with what the organisation's strategy demands. Understanding rater views on what is important, and how well these align with strategy, is a key to ensure that the appraisal process supports, rather than hinders, both individual and organisational needs. Each manager's personal constructs relating to appraisal were elicited through a repertory grid interview. The elicited constructs were taken together and categorised to derive broad performance categories summarising the views of the entire management team. Each individual's personal constructs were then allocated to the relevant common category to develop a view of how each manager related to the group's overall approach to appraisal. A measure for the importance of each category in making performance judgments (importance score) was derived based on the correlation of the constructs in each category with an overall performance construct. A second measure of a manager's preparedness to discriminate between levels of performance was also derived (discriminant score) based on the variation in each manager's construct structure. In keeping with the personal construct psychology approach, the process emphasizes the importance of discussion with the individual concerned to verify the sorting and ranking pro cess. A ranking process to establish the overall management group priorities for judging performance (team mental models) was demonstrated and a charting process was developed to facilitate presentation and discussion of the results. The research has demonstrated the strength of the repertory grid process as a means of getting at a rater's framework for thinking about appraisal and provides a way to identify possible voids or blind spots in a rater's approach. Understanding the most important categories of performance used by raters provides an opportunity for management to determine whether these are likely to achieve the objectives of the company, and if necessary, to introduce and inculcate different approaches.

Abstract:
Children with severe, prelingual deafness experience considerable problems in reading and learning to read. Moreover, it has been widely reported that the deaf rarely develop in reading beyond a reading age of nine years. The research reported examines these claims and provides evidence that: (1) deaf children do acquire higher-order, top-down, reading skills; (2) deaf children possess undifferentiated story schemata in both reading and non-reading story situations and these limit their top-down processing of whole stories; and (3) deaf children can acquire more differentiated story schemata and can learn to use these to read more 'schematically' at the whole-passage level. The elements of a model for the reading of the deaf are presented and its implications for the teaching of the deaf are discussed. It is suggested that in teaching the deaf to read, emphasis should be placed upon their top-down reading strengths.

Abstract:
A significant risk area for project sponsors is managing unplanned change. Theorists of organisational behaviour have attempted to understand the circumstances of how activity change occurs on projects and have identified the significant impact that time has on activity. This current research takes the study of cognition into the real world setting of project management at a level of analysis that is viable across diverse projects and industries to study project manager regulation of unplanned change. The project managers' cognitive representation of meaningful aspects of a project (their 'cognitive schemata'), which guides activity change during the project, was investigated and the effect of feedback evaluated in order to address the central research question of what triggers change on group projects. In the present research, leading edge projects from six major Australian industries (telecommunications, banking and insurance, information technology, railway signalling, inorganic chemistry and construction) were monitored at three key points through their lifecycle to understand how feedback impacts on project activity through the project manager’s cognition leading to change. Six key categories of feedback were identified, which potentially represented the foci of project-related schemata, within a project management mental model. These were validated as important indicators for project management performance by a panel of Australia's leading experts in project management. Sixteen project managers participated in the field study, with their verbal reports being collected through structured interviews (incorporating a 'laddered' interview technique), which were developed and piloted across diverse projects for this purpose. Interview data were coded for analysis in terms of sensitivity to each of the six feedback foci and one control category, for five types of feedback and five types of change. Reliability of the content coding was checked through independent coding and found to be high. The research investigation was conducted within a schematic information processing conceptual framework developed for application within the domain of project management. Strong evidence was found that linked key schemata to the hypothesized effects of feedback. Overall, the effects were found to be general across all industries, individuals and projects. A contrasting effect was observed for one type of feedback where schemata were poorly developed in inexpert project managers, which raised the issue of measurable differences in behaviour arising from project management competency. The findings of strong relationships between the variables led to the proposed model of project manager cognition, which reveals an underlying structure in the schemata between key areas of sensitivity to feedback and unplanned change. The model is proposed as underpinning observed behaviour in this and prior research and suggests a relationship between competency and change regulation.

Abstract:
Diese Untersuchung beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, welche Krankheitskonzepte depressiven Patienten (ICD-10) und ihre Partnern haben und welche Behandlungs-erfahrungen gemacht wurden. Das Ziel der Untersuchung besteht darin, auf der Grundlage einer ressourcenorientierten explorativen Sichtweise die rehabilitativen Möglichkeiten für depressive Patienten und ihre Partner zu erweitern und geschlechtsspezifische Unterschiede einzubeziehen. Die Forschung zur Compliance macht deutlich, dass die Übereinstimmung der Krankheitskonzepte die Behandlungsergebnisse entscheidend verbessern kann. Es wurde den Fragen nachgegangen, worin sich die Attributionen auf Krankheitsursachen bei Patienten und ihren Partnern unterscheiden und welche Auswirkungen sich für das partnerschaftliche Unterstützungsverhalten ergeben. Zudem wurden die motiva-tionalen Schemata auf der Grundlage der Konsistenztheorie (Grawe, 1998; 2004) erhoben, Geschlechtsunterschiede und die Partnerschaftsqualität beachtet. Als Theorien wurden zum Beispiel die Theorie der wahrgenommenen Verantwortlichkeit (Weiner, 1986) und der gelernten Hilflosigkeit (Seligman, 1975; Abramson, Seligman & Teasdale, 1978) und daraus Fragestellungen entwickelt. Diese Arbeit hat sich die Aufgabe gestellt, die persönlichen Besonderheiten der depressiven Patienten und ihrer Partner zu beachten. Die Methodik besteht aus einem semistrukturierten qualitativen Interview sowie standardisierten Fragebögen. Es wurden 46 depressive Patienten und 46 Partner einer Psychiatrie- und Psychotherapiestation untersucht. Es konnten verschiedene Zusammenhänge zwischen der Partnerschaftsqualität, der partnerschaftlichen Unterstützung, den Einstellungen und motivationalen Schemata gefunden werden. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass geschlechtsspezifische Unter-schiede bei Patienten und Partnern viel stärker in der Therapie beachtet werden sollten. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass sich innerhalb der diagnostischen Zuord-nung einer Depression sehr verschiedene individuelle Krankheitskonzepte bei Patienten und bei den Partnern ergeben. Es lassen sich jedoch auch Probleme aufzeigen, die mit einem leitlinienorientierten Vorgehen in der Psychotherapie verbunden sind. Die qualitative Befragung konnte innere Prozesse und Entwicklungen gut sichtbar machen, die quantitative Methodik der Fragebögen bildete Status und überdauernde Motive gut ab. Mögliche Anwendungen und Impli-kationen für die klinische Praxis sowie die Einbeziehung der Partner werden diskutiert.
This study is employed with the questions what kind of illness representations and experiences of examination are generated by depressive patients (ICD-10) and their partners. The goal is existed in finding more possibilities in rehabilitation and therapy for the couples are based on resources and sex differences. The research of compliance comes to the resolution that the agreement in illness representations is able to improve the outcomes of therapy. Therefore, the questions are, which differences in illness representations by patients and partners, expectations, solutions of support by the couples, males and females can be found and what are the consequences for compliance and their relationship. Then, the motivational schemata based on the consistence-theory (Grawe, 1998; 2004) were considered. On basic were included the theories of perceived responsibility (Weiner, 1986) and learned helplessness (Seligman, 1975; Abramson, Seligman & Teasdale, 1978) and then developed individual questions. The method is a mixed design in qualitative (semi-structured interview) and quantitative instruments (tests). Data are used from 92 persons, 46 patients they are in clinical treatment and their partners. There are found that quality of partnership is associated with support, the expectations, attitudes and individual motivational schemata of the persons. Sex differences should be stronger observed in treatment. Turns out, into the notation “depression”, there are different individual illness representations of patients and their partners. The application of guideline-oriented procedures in psychotherapy has been criticized. Qualitative interviews were appropriate to describe processes and developments, quantitative tests were appropriate to expose the status and outlasting motives. Results are presented in terms of their implications for supporting treatment and involving partners into this process.

Abstract:
Salkovskis' cognitive model of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD, 1985) has led to a wealth of research which has identified a number of cognitive vulnerabilities thought to be characteristic of the disorder. Schemata related to responsibility, guilt, faulty meta-cognitive beliefs, thought action fusion and the appropriateness of neutralisation have been associated with OCD symptomatology. However, the majority of research has used non-clinical subjects, with varying criteria and methodology, leading to problems in interpreting the results. More recent work (Sookman et al, 1994) has attempted to develop a multidimensional model of OCD. The emphasis is on addressing early attachment experience to examine the possible aetiology of core schemata. Subsequent research has not reflected the need to develop this comprehensive approach to our understanding of OCD: cognitive theorists have continued to examine cognitive schemata in isolation; separate research has addressed personality factors such as perfectionism; a third vein has examined OCD patients' reports of parenting. In the current paper, 20 subjects with a diagnosis of OCD and an anxious control group of 20 subjects are compared on a number of measures, aimed at examining i) OCD related schemata (Inventory of Beliefs Related to Obsessions, Freeston et al 1993), ii) experience of parenting (Parental Bonding Instrument, Parker et al, 1979) and iii) the fundamental personality dimensions of sociotropy and autonomy (Personal Style Inventory, Robins et at, 1994). The paper compares scores on these measures between experimental and control groups to examine OCD specificity and confirm the unique role of particular schemata in a clinical OCD group. The relationship between early experience, cognitive vulnerability and OCD symptomatology is examined in an attempt to incorporate these factors into a comprehensive account of OCD which links early experience to OCD through the mediating influence of dysfunctional assumptions and cognitive vulnerabilities.
