Das Kognitive Inventar für Borderline-Persönlichkeitsstörung (KIB). Eine Untersuchung zur Reliabilität und Validität
No full textTheoretischer Hintergrund: Das Kognitive Inventar der Borderline-Persönlichkeitsstörung (KIB) wurde zur Messung von störungstypischen Überzeugungen sowie assoziierten behavioralen und emotionalen Symptomen entwickelt. Fragestellung: Die psychometrischen Kennwerte des KIB wurden untersucht und ergänzen die Erkenntnisse einer Pilotstudie. Methode: Die Reliabilität, die faktorielle, konvergente, divergente und differenzielle Validität sowie die Änderungssensitivität wurden anhand von zwei klinischen (Borderline-Persönlichkeitsstörung und Achse I-Störungen; n = 150) und einer nicht-klinischen Stichprobe (n = 70) untersucht. Ergebnisse: Die Ergebnisse zeigen eine hohe Reliabilität, eine hohe konvergente Validität und eine zufriedenstellende divergente Validität. Die differenzielle Validität ist als gut und die Änderungssensitivität als zufriedenstellend zu bewerten. Schlussfolgerungen: Das KIB ermöglicht eine reliable und valide Erfassung störungstypischer Regeln und Einstellungen bei BPS. Seine Besonderheit liegt in der Berücksichtigung subjektiver Funktionen selbstschädigender Verhaltensweisen

From Pedrolino to a Pierrot: The Origin, Ancestry and Ambivalence of the British Pierrot Troupe
No full textIn this article, the author considers the British development of the seaside Pierrot troupe, arguing that its construction is consistent with the notion of invented tradition, and the associated concerns with identity and nationality. Tracing the history of the character from its origins as Pedrolino in the commedia dell’arte, the article considers the traditional and novel elements of the British form. This also allows a brief account of the origin and aesthetics of the British tradition. Reflecting on the synthesis of the archaic and contemporary dimensions of the form, the author proposes that the new structure constructed an ambivalent class of character. The composition of both troupes and audiences was drawn from across the range of social strata. Through its collectivity and its treatment of contemporary social themes, it is argued the British Pierrot troupe approached and negotiated questions of a cultural and national identity in the late-Victorian period.
