Pioneering research has been carried out over the last decade on
mentalization and the promotion of mentalizing capacity - the
ability to interpret the behavior of oneself and others as based on
intentional mental states, such as needs, desires, feelings, and
beliefs. This book is a consolidation of current knowledge and
clinical applications, bringing together a group of international
experts who have been on the ground floor of theory and research to
clarify the concept, review pertinent neurobiological and
psychosocial research, and explore its diverse clinical
applications.
Four sections will cover Conceptual Foundations, Developmental
Psychopathology, Intervention and Prevention. A biopsychosocial
approach will be used, integrating new research in neuroimaging
with psychodynamic and cognitive perspectives. Clinical issues
covered will include parent-child interactions, personality
disorders, traumatic brain injury, bullying and at-risk
children.
