Re: Parallels to and Research in Adlerian Psychology
I've just received a manuscript titled "The Inferior Complex in Paranoia Re-addressed: A Study With the Implicit Association Test," by Steffen Moritz, Ronny Werner, and Gernot von Collani; the article is now in press at Cognitive Neuropsychiatry. The authors provide evidence in favor of Adler's theory that patients with paranoia indeed have a deep-rooted low self-esteem which they try to conceal from themselves and others. They have verified this account with an "objective" cognitive paradigm, the Implicit Association Test.
