Fantalova. [Multilevel methodological approach to research in clinical psychological practice]

Abstract:
Long-term experience with psycho-diagnostic techniques and the use of results in differential psychodiagnostics and psychological assistance has shown the necessity of a clear idea about the levels of psychological (psycho-diagnostic) studies, with appropriate levels of dominant psychological reality of a particular case. If the psychologist is ready to recognize the level and can quickly and easily differentiate it, so the real psychological support will be more effective, from the standpoint of the choice of psychotherapeutic techniques and from follow directional conversations dialogue. Here are identified and described three methodological levels of psychological reality (individual, personality, soul), which are complementary and characterizing features of psyche functioning and of holistic psychological portrait. It may contain symptoms that reveal the temperament, properties of the nervous system, the phenomenology of nature, as far as deep motivation and personality structure, personal meanings and values.
