A psychotherapist haunted by a nonsensical plot [Review of the motion picture Gothika]
- 2005
-
Ingår i: Contemporary Psychology: APA Review of Books. ; 50:23 Article 15

Recension (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Gothika breaks new ground in forensic psychology by implying a new defense: innocent by reason of spirit possession. The film, on its surface, deals with a number of other psychological issues. Its heroine, Dr. Miranda Gray, is a criminal psychologist who works in an institution for the criminally insane. There is discussion of repression as a "survival tool," episodes of apparent psychogenic amnesia, and speculations on the psychology of serial rapists and killers. All of these, however, are but a flimsy cover for a poorly constructed, illogical plot that does as much disservice to the presentation of psychological matters as to the enjoyment of a good ghost story.

A solid introduction to clinical hypnosis. [Review of the book Essential of Clinical Hypnosis]
- 2006
-
Ingår i: Contemporary Psychology: APA Review of Books. ; 51:50 Article 18
-
Recension (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Reviews the book, Essentials of Clinical Hypnosis: An Evidence-Based Approach by Steven Jay Lynn and Irving Kirsch (see record 2005-13464-000). Steven Jay Lynn and Irving Kirsch are two of the most prolific and best-regarded hypnosis researchers in the world, besides working as clinicians, so they can discuss authoritatively both the empirical support for different hypnotic interventions and provide verbatim hypnotic scripts and discussion of practical clinical considerations. Both authors endorse a psychosocial approach to hypnosis theory and research and prefer cognitive-behavioral interventions. To their merit, however, they have also integrated into their text some verbalizations and concepts (e.g., utilization) based mostly on the clinical work of Milton Erickson (see Yapko, 2003) and, although they do not cover it in depth, refer approvingly to psychodynamic approaches to hypnosis. The book provides a comprehensive and empirically supported introduction to the clinical use of hypnosis, which various meta-analyses have shown to powerfully enhance both psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral psychotherapies.

All in the family [Review of the motion picture Requiem]
- 2007
-
Ingår i: Contemporary Psychology: APA Review of Book. - : Portico. - 1554-0138. ; 52:31
-
Recension (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Reviews the film, Requiem, directed by Hans-Christian Schmid (2006). This award-winning (for both its star, Sandra Hüller, and the film itself) German film is based on the case of Anneliese Michel, a 23-year-old German woman who died in 1976, probably of starvation (she weighed 68 lb. just before her death) and exhaustion, after 67 exorcism rites. Hüller's nuanced performance chills the spine far more than Hollywood special effects because she has enough versatility and depth to show how close the angelical and demoniacal sides of humanity are to each other. Requiem closely resembles both thematically and stylistically the 1971 film Family Life (Loach & Mercer, 1971), which was influenced by the antipsychiatry movement. That film depicts a teenage girl's psychological collapse after being forced by her family to undergo an abortion and electroconvulsive therapy. Requiem has the same type of no-frills, undertone filmmaking, which actually highlights the horror of the events chronicled. The director meticulously reveals the gradual disintegration of Anneliese as it becomes evident that her attempts to go to a university and carve out an independent life become literally a life-death struggle against a repressive family and a religion willing to destroy her to maintain their sense of propriety.
