Dissociazione creativa: il “trip” dell’artista

AMS Acta 2016 Giuseppe Galetta

Un’allucinazione vissuta consensualmente abbandonandosi all’oblio della coscienza: un “viaggio” allucinante nelle profondità dell’inconscio, intrapreso dall’artista nel rischioso tentativo di raggiungere senza certezza uno stato di “superiore” ispirazionee di mistica illuminazione, lasciando affiorare le proprie visioni ed i propri fantasmi interiori dalle nebbie lisergiche dell’estasi chimica...

Conclusion: Sublimation, Oceanic Feeling, and the Selfobject

Palgrave Macmillan US eBooks 2016 Jung Eun Jang

Kohut’s concept of selfobject is illuminated in terms of the concept of sublimation. Freud’s interpretation and positive comment on mystic practices was complemented and developed by Kohut’s concept of selfobject that paved the way for religious sublimation. Religious experiences function as sublimation by performing their selfobject roles. Psychohistorical analysis of the 1907 Revival Movement...

Case series: toxicity from 25B-NBOMe--a cluster of N-bomb cases.

Clinical Toxicology 2016 Paul Gee, Leo J. Schep, Berit P Jensen et al.

Background A new class of hallucinogens called NBOMes has emerged. This class includes analogues 25I-NBOMe, 25C-NBOMe and 25B-NBOMe. Case reports and judicial seizures indicate that 25I-NBOMe and 25C-NBOMe are more prevalently abused. There have been a few confirmed reports of 25B-NBOMe use or toxicity. Report Observational case series. This report describes a series of 10 patients who suffered...

Phenotypic Dimensions of Spirituality: Implications for Mental Health in China, India, and the United States.

Frontiers in Psychology 2016 Clayton H. Mcclintock, Elsa Lau, Lisa Miller

While the field of empirical study on religion and spirituality in relation to mental health has rapidly expanded over the past decade, little is known about underlying dimensions of spirituality cross-culturally conceived. We aimed to bridge this gap by inductively deriving potential universal dimensions of spirituality through a large-scale, multi-national data collection, and examining the...

Cortical Neural Synchronization Underlies Primary Visual Consciousness of Qualia: Evidence from Event-Related Potentials.

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience 2016 Claudio Babiloni, Nicola Marzano, Andrea Soricelli et al.

This article reviews three experiments on event-related potentials (ERPs) testing the hypothesis that primary visual consciousness (stimulus self-report) is related to enhanced cortical neural synchronization as a function of stimulus features. ERP peak latency and sources were compared between "seen" trials and "not seen" trials, respectively related and unrelated to the primary visual...

Early Local Activity in Temporal Areas Reflects Graded Content of Visual Perception.

Frontiers in Psychology 2016 Chiara F Tagliabue, Chiara Mazzi, Chiara Bagattini et al. 69 citations

In visual cognitive neuroscience the debate on consciousness is focused on two major topics: the search for the neural correlates of the different properties of visual awareness and the controversy on the graded versus dichotomous nature of visual conscious experience. The aim of this study is to search for the possible neural correlates of different grades of visual awareness investigating the...
