For Jung in particular, the key mission of personality is to explore and integrate the unconscious with consciousness so as to understand a deeper meaning of one's individual existence. After a brief overview of two of Jung's concepts, the collective unconscious and the archetypes, this paper will focus on what he calls "the transcendent process" (Jung, 1960)

While I believe in Allah, the only thing I don't do is pray, though it is important to my religious beliefs and values. Religion is an important identity marker to me because religions throughout the world provide some answers to an individual's need for a sense of belonging or identity (Seul, 1999, p
The Islamic faith is more than a religion since it goes beyond rulings and rituals, but helps in developing rational faith and moral conduct through understanding right and wrong. It offers the framework for an overview of reality and a recommendation for a good life (Sulaiman, 1997)
Similar to Maslow's concept of conceptualization, Carl Rogers' concept of the "fully functioning" individual illustrates the importance of a holistic personality development of a person. Rogers' fully functional individual requires that s/he must have the motivation to fully realize his/her need for personal growth and acknowledge the existence of positive or constructive feelings, thoughts, and behavior toward an individual, event, or thing (Buber & Rogers, 1997:77-8)
e., the occurrence of hysteria or fainting prevalent among women) (Freedheim & Weiner, 2003:322)
The latter field of study, personality, is what interests most people because it helps people identify what kind of people they are: their feelings, sentiments, attitudes, beliefs, and possibly predict one's behavior through these factors. Defined as the "enduring, distinctive thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that characterize the way an individual adapts to the world," personality as a field of study in psychology is characterized according to three dominant perspectives: the psychoanalytic, humanistic, and cognitive perspectives (Santrock, 2001:412)
This has the potential to be both advantageous or disastrous for human relationships. 2) Intrapersonal communication is viewed as the foundation for all communication and is an important source for understanding ourselves (Barker, 1980, p
Additionally, it should be noted that a person is always functions as the sender and receiver simultaneously; he or she cannot be one or the other. "In the presence of another person one cannot not behave nor can one not communicate" (Greene, 1996, p
The contrast of intrapersonal communication is interpersonal communication. Interpersonal communication consists of "the skills we employ when interacting with other people" (Hargie, 2004, p
20). Stacks writes that "intrapersonal communication is the most individualistic while mass communication is the most collectivistic" (Honeycutt, 2008, p
Interpersonal Communication This classic axiom, by the communications theorist Paul Watzlawick, is very important to understanding how we communicate. The axiom stating "one cannot not communicate" is important because it emphasizes that we are always affecting other individual's perceptions, despite wanting to or not (Littlejohn, 2002, p
Interpersonal communication, essentially, is the larger underlying concept for small group communication, organizational communication, face-to-face public communication, and mediated public communication. Small group communication is defined as "three or more people working interdependently for the purpose of accomplishing a task" (Myers, 2008, p
Organizational communication is how people communicate within an organization. Sinha writes that communication is basic to organization because it links organization members and mediates the inputs to the organization from the environment (Sinha, 1991, p
1671). Mediated public communication is interpersonal communication that is assisted by a device, such as a telephone, pen, or computer (Turow, 2009, p
Whether rejecting eye contact or crossing one's arms in front of his chest, these examples of body language demonstrate and convey a desire to not communicate, yet in their very existence qualify as communication. "Activity or inactivity, words or silence all have message value" (Watzlawick, 1967, p
For example, they write, "Expenditure on education is a capital investment in a risky enterprise, as it were, like investment in a newly formed small business. The most satisfactory method of financing such enterprises is not through a fixed-dollar loan, but through equity investment - 'buying' a share in the enterprise and receiving as a return a share of the profits" (Friedman and Friedman 184)
The authors use everyday examples, such as "investment in a newly formed small business" to make their economic processes more understandable to anyone who understands modern business, and this is one of the things that makes this book so readable, and so fascinating, even for someone who might not be that interested in economic theory and practice. The Friedman's support many ideas that would reduce the authority of government in many economic areas, including the "negative income tax, the volunteer army, an improved method of auctioning Treasury securities, the monetary rule for achieving price stability; the voucher system for education, the flat tax, and flexible exchange rates" (Jordan et al
185). They suggest that the cognitive effects of the disorder cause a patient to believe that other people are responsible for satisfying their needs, and represent themselves as helpless in "a hostile world without security" (Beck & Freeman, 1990)
They suggest that the cognitive effects of the disorder cause a patient to believe that other people are responsible for satisfying their needs, and represent themselves as helpless in "a hostile world without security" (Beck & Freeman, 1990). Cognitive behavioral therapy may be useful in treating and preparing patients for transference focused psychotherapy (Appelibaum, et
