Humanistic Psychology in the University Preparation of Future Teachers

<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">The article calls for attention to the problem of violence and abuse of the elderly within their family, partnership, and relationships with relatives in the postmodern society. The outcomes of the research, carried out on a sample of the elderly people within different residence settings are presented. Results show that all kinds of violence and abuse are present in all kinds of settings, except in the residence with relatives, where sexual abuse was not noticed. Physical and sexual violence and abuse is mostly present in the households in which the elderly live with their partner, while psychical violence is present in the households with relatives. Material violence and abuse are present in case of elderly people who live alone. Both, men and women, experience most violence and abuse in their flats.</abstract>

<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">There is a vast amount of literature on similarities and differences of women and men experiencing (close) relationships and using different strategies for coping with daily stress and significant life events. Western folk psychology expects women to be generally more anxious and men to be more avoidant when solving close-relationship conflicts and experiences in long term relationships. We used the Experiences in Close Relationships - Revised (ECR-R) questionnaire that is based on the Attachment-style theory distinguishing four distinct attachment styles - secure, anxious/ambivalent, disoriented/disorganized and avoidant.</abstract>

<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">The universities are traditionally elitist bulwarks. How do they counter this image? I would like to present a special andragogy strategy which I apply in university level education, in the Cultural Project Managers´ training against poverty and social exclusion in the Institute of Cultural Studies at the University of Pécs. I demonstrate the application of drama pedagogy method in the course of the training. We have more and more experience concerning the fact that the Hungarian “drama pedagogy school”, that became stronger in recent decades, has introduced and developed effective methodological frameworks to realize constructive pedagogy able to create more efficient pedagogical situations than the traditional education methods. This means that today´s Hungarian drama pedagogy possesses the qualities which enable to answer many of the challenges mentioned above.</abstract>
