Family care of impaired elderly: a role theory approach.

To understand the behaviour of family members who take care of their impaired parents, a role theoretical model is presented. The model defines three dimensions of human behaviour for assessing the behaviour of role-incumbents. These three dimensions are indicated by the questions: What should be done? What is one willing to do? What can be done? This heuristic model is applied to the caring behaviour of adult children towards their impaired parents. Within each dimension a number of variables are specified and for each of them the scattered research findings of many recent studies in this area have been summarized and integrated. It seems justified to consider the model a useful guide for future research on family care of the elderly.

[Fairy tale drama--an inpatient group psychotherapeutic method for patients with ego disorders].

Patients with "early disturbances" partly display considerable resistance to treatment methods that promote regression or aim at uncovering inhibitions, since they themselves lack emotional differentiation. In an inpatient setting such patients are able to transfer their non-experienced share of feelings and references to the treating personnel. If these transferred feelings are not properly processed and managed, therapy blockades and communication blockades arise, resulting in considerable frustrations of all concerned within the therapeutic community. Against the background of these experiences we developed a ward group method inviting both patients and staff to join hands in creative playing (e.g. by acting a fairy tale on the stage); within this framework it is possible to shape latent group, ward and team conflicts on a metaphorical level. As a result we achieve a reduction of the emotional tension level within the ward, a reduction of team conflicts, and hence an improved therapeutical climate and better possibilities to translate into reality appropriate strategies for a fair solution of problems. The overall framework, the therapeutic concept, as well as the individual stages of work-in-progress in the realisation of the fairy-tale drama are described in detail (e.g. phase of birth of the fairy tale, phase of fairy-tale recital, phase of casting, actual performance phase and subsequent discussion phase). These steps are described both as regards their form and their contents; they are compared with other group techniques of a similar nature.

"Living theatre, theatre of life".

Young people love to play theatre--in one way or another. They like to play with behaviours, costumes, words, communication patterns, etc.; they like to disguise themselves, to create certain spheres and scenes of drama and tragedy, excitement and extacy, satire and irony, morals and decadence. Due to the particular uncertainties of the adolescent passage, youth oscillates between taking life both, too seriously and easy. Searching for identity and integration, they tend to experiment with styles of behaviour and culturally defined patterns of lifestyles conductive to well-being. Sometimes, life is perceived as pure entertainment, and sometimes as pure drama. It's living theatre and theatre of life. On the one hand it is "acting out", on the other hand it is playing precisely defined roles. And, in-between, it is always the question: Who am I? They tend to slip into roles in order to check out whether they are willing to accept their implications with regard to the priorities they have set so far.

A comparison of the performance of role-play and non-role-play students at interview.

This article compares the performance of role-play and non-role-play students at an interview resembling a viva voce examination. Diagnostic and therapy radiography students were given a mock viva voce examination at which they were asked how they would respond to patients showing emotional difficulties during a radiographic procedure. Voce questions showed that students who had experienced role-play during training were more likely to cope with the patient's difficulties. The results of this survey are believed to indicate the value of role-play in radiography student training and to corroborate the use of the viva voce examination for assessing aspects of the affective domain.
