SZONDI GENOTROPHIC PSYCHOLOGY AND THE SZONDI TEST
MAY NOT BE FOR YOU.
----------------------------------------------------------------
THE RADICAL THEORIES-OF HUNGARIAN PSYCHIATRIST-LIPOT SZONDI,


WHO IN EFFECT CLAIMED---


We are by gene inheritance directed, consciously or unconsciously in our lives from birth to death, these passages include:


marriage and mate selection
occupational and hobby choices
gender roles
criminal inclinations
choice of illness




You may have to suspend judgment on many points to get past conventional objections and to accept his claims even in part that-- " latent genes shape your fate"


Yet in GENOTROPIC ( Fate) PSYCHOLOGY-one can glimpse the possibility of satisfying- THE AGE OLD ( POSSIBLY ILLUSORY) DREAM OF UNDERSTANDING HUMAN BEHAVIOR.




Szondi began his studies with involved genealogical investigations and in a dream- a more functional way of studying the effect of gene ancestors. The unconscious identification ongoing within us of our ancestral prototypes. This impacts us by our like or dislike, reactions to portraits of 'pure types'- reagent facial photos of those that carry the quality to an extreme that is found in psychopathology. His set of 48 such photos has been dramatically called 'the faces of madness'-indeed these photos are the measuring sticks of the SZONDI TEST. Normal then, is but a mixture of psycho-pathologies in a proper or healthy mixture. Szondi tells us therefore mental illness is not a brain disorder but a drive disorder. The drive in turn is the expression of genes. With the filtering method made possible by Szondi’s invention, The Szondi Test, (originally named, the GeneOtest , for obvious reasons.) one can graphically present a profile convertible to a readable and meaningful psychogram, based on a previously unknown measuring method. [The well known Rorschach Test, or Ink Blot test useful as it is, for diagnosis, has no ordinals directly from psycho-pathology and uses a sort of structural classification based on the precepts of the subject, which have quality and quantity differences in the various disorders]


The Szondi Test is non verbal, except for indicating like or dislike of the photos of individuals of known pathological types. This is of interest in that the person tested need not even speak the same language. Of interest to cognitive psychology is that a form of psychogram can be made without passing through the subjects verbal conventions, acquired signifiers or learned responses


Thus psychological differences, gender identification, emotional control and the state of object relations can be revealed, defined, from indications free from the self portrayal distortions common to most history materials.


You don't have to have a Szondi Test Set or yourself test people, to explore the Szondi conclusions while the test once in place radically re-shaped the theory. The theory and later derived sub-theories stand by themselves as an unique important contribution to understanding human nature.


Of importance is, that once you open the door to GENOTROPIC explanations, you have additional set of tools to use for and against other interpretations that hopefully will be profitable to all, psychological and behavioral sciences.

(THIS POST was made 2005 as sort of testing of the waters as to locating those who might be interested in the Szondi  Fateanalysis psychology.)
The Szondi Test study group, is four years later and better organized. The link is {here}


The Fateanalsis blog is more general and deals with dreams and the self-analysis procedures which follow the depth level procedures originated by Psychoanalyst. Karen Horney, M. D. for public use during World War II when a shortage of psychotherapists occurred do to a significant number of them being called to military service. Leaving many to deal with their problems on their own. Today her teaching need only minor modernizations for those not too mind sick to follow. She pointed out the best results come from working with an experienced therapist, but lacking one for any reason, there is a lot you can do for yourself.
