Of all the threads, I cannot find one in relation to this on Polishforums.

Okay, when I think psychology, I think of Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist, Sigmund Freud. Or Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung.

What do you know about Polish psychologists/psychiatrists?
What do you think of their approaches to - ?
Who have you heard of?
Any concept you dis/agree with?

Any contribution is welcome.



Here are those which I have read about [very] briefly so far (+ a quote from the links provided):

Solomon Asch
'Social pressure can make a person say something that is obviously incorrect ' {URL}

Kazimierz D±browski
'Dabrowski developed the theory of Positive Disintegration, a novel approach to personality development' {URL}

Else Frenkel-Brunswik
'In addition to her work on The Authoritarian Personality, she also did research on prejudice in children, and wrote on intolerance on ambiguity as a cognitive style of personality that emerged in her studies of prejudice' {URL}

Marek Kotański
'charity worker and campaigner on behalf of disadvantaged people, including the homeless and those with HIV' {URL}


Rudolph Loewenstein (psychoanalyst)

'Loewenstein is known above all as one of the foremost figures, with Ernst Kris and Heinz Hartmann, of what has been called Ego psychology' {URL}

Abraham Low
'noted for his work establishing self-help programs for the mentally ill, and criticism of Freudian psychoanalysis' {URL}

Julian Ochorowicz
'Ochorowicz was a pioneer of empirical research in psychology, and conducted studies into occultism, spiritualism, hypnosis and telepathy.' {URL}

Witelo
'views that are close to modern notions on the association of ideas and on the subconscious.' {URL}
