Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1979, the world’s leading researchers contributed chapters describing their work on the orienting reflex in humans. The contributions, at the time current and comprehensive, in a sense that each facet of contemporary research was represented, address the orienting reflex, now recognized as a fundamental component of human learning and cognitive function. The authors contributing to this volume emphasize both theoretical and methodological issues, as well as present more empirical research. Here is a volume that spans all current work on the orienting reflex in humans, both basic and applied, from the laboratory as well as clinical data, and which would be of immense interest to psychologists, psychophysiologists, psychiatrists, physiologists, and all others interested in this fascinating topic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a testimony to Evgeny Nikolaevich Sokolov's years of work in developing knowledge in the areas of perception, information processing and attention, and to the research it has spawned. It presents a historical account of a research program, leading the reader toward a cognitive science approach to the study of perception and attention. An understanding of neuroscience and mathematical modeling are helpful prerequisites. The co-authors collected data on orienting, attention, and information processing in the brain using single-cell recordings, central, autonomic, cognitive, behavioral, and verbal measures. This commonality brought them together for a series of meetings which resulted in the production of this book. The book ends with a review of some of the co-authors studies that have developed from or in parallel with Sokolov's research. They investigate, in particular, the concepts of attention and anticipation using a psychophysiological methodology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orienting is the gateway to attention, the first step in processing stimulus information. This volume examines these initial stages of information intake, focusing on the sensory and motivational mechanisms that determine such phenomena as stimulus selection and inhibition, habituation, pre-attentive processing, and expectancy. Psychophysiological methods are emphasized throughout. The contributors consider analyses based on cardiovascular and electrodermal changes, reflex reactions, and neural events in the cortex and subcortex. Stimulated by a conference lauding Frances Graham -- held before and during a recent meeting of the Society for Psychophysiological Research, the book presents current theory and research by an international cadre of outstanding investigators. A major researcher and theorist in the field of attention for more than three decades, Dr. Graham contributes an Afterword to the present volume which is both a consideration of the work which has gone before, and a new, original theory paper on preattentive processing and attention.

Book excerpt: Calatonia is a body-based, psychophysical approach created during WWII by Pethö Sándor, a Hungarian physician. He developed Calatonia whilst working as a doctor for the Red Cross, in various refugee camps. Calatonia arose out of necessity, and was probably the first somatic therapy developed from, and initially for, those suffering from war trauma.A pioneering spirit, he recognised the importance of fostering the organism's self-regulation within the therapeutic context, in order to achieve psychological balance and to facilitate the integration of traumatic experiences. His work is life affirming and encourages resilience building, structured around the global reorganisation and mutual regulation of soma and psyche - dictated neither by symptoms nor by the grip of trauma.Sándor settled in Brazil after the Second World War, where his gentle method has been used in psychotherapy, education, child development, health, personal growth, and stress prevention. There are many books, theses and dissertations written in Portuguese, and now, an ever-growing enthusiasm for it has been endorsed by recent studies in neuropsychology, cognitive neuroscience and neuroscience of touch, which have offered abundant evidence for future validation of the method. Calatonia uses Default Mode Network connectivity, integrates Mind Wandering, and explores the positive potential of the Orienting Reflex to reorganise mind-body. Chapters: First chapter, "Calatonia", was published in 1969 in the Boletim de Psicologia, in São Paulo, by Pethő Sándor, and is here reprinted (translated). Paulo Machado Filho's chapter gives a context for Sándor's method. Rosa Farah (1949-2016) briefly describes the teaching of the method within the professional course of psychology in São Paulo.Sandra Tavares presents her work with Subtle Touch and Calatonia within the Brazilian public healthcare system, both in individual and group therapy. Claudia Herbert addresses the healing of trauma and offers an exploration of the scientific rationale and specific considerations for the application of Calatonia and Subtle Touch in trauma treatment. Maria Irene Gonçalves finds a parallel between alchemical symbolism and psychodynamic processes in somatic psychotherapy with children.Céline Lorthiois explains Deep Pedagogy, a pedagogic method that integrates Calatonia and Subtle Touch approach to child development.Irene Gaeta presents an adult patient, who suffered early trauma, and how through the use of Calatonia followed by art-therapy, she was enabled to access, reorganise and integrate her preverbal memories. Leda Seixas expands on the use of Sándor's body-based techniques in the treatment of patients with schizophrenia and discuss central tenets of Jung's psychology in Sándor's method. Anita Blanchard writes about the Jungian concept of psyche in psychotherapy and in the ethos of Sándor's work. Vivian Nassif and Maria Georgina Gonçalves describe the Calatonia of Sight, formulated for the treatment of individuals suffering from visual impairment, and now used as a tool in psychotherapy. Ana Maria Rios describes the case of a child with attachment issues stemming from trauma, abandonment and loss, who was successfully treated with Calatonia. Lúcia Helena Almeida presents the case of an uncommunicative teenager who was able to express herself through a series of drawings, created after receiving Calatonia and other somatic work in session. Marilena Armando examines some essential attributes of resilience, and the ways in which Calatonia contributes to the development of resilience and numinous experiences. Beatriz Henry and Luiz Lemos discuss how the use of Calatonia produces a distinctive field of transference in psychotherapy and enhances the probability of synchronous phenomena. Anita Blanchard presents a summary of the hypotheses about the neuroscientific underpinnings of Pethö Sándor's method.
