ISPITIVANJE LIČNOSTI PRAVOSLAVNIH KLIJENATA- OSVRT NA ZAVISNOST I IMPULSIVNOST
EXAMINATION OF THE PERSONALITY OF ORTHODOX CLIENTS WITH A SPECIAL REVIEW ON DEPENDENCE AND IMPULSIVENESS

Summary/Abstract: The current social, psychological and spiritual reality is characterized by the dependence in interpersonal relationships, depression and alienation that is reflected in: loss of hope, lack of life goals, loss of curiosity. We strive to analyse a given situation in order to find ways of overcoming it. When we define psychopathology we can approach psychological integration and rehabilitation more fully through the enrichment of developmental theories of personality. In this paper we will try to determine by examining quantitative methods and psychological tests, whether there are significant differences in the pathological characteristics of personality and impulsivity of Orthodox clients, as well as in the constructs of positive psychology such as important life issues, hope, satisfaction with life, the development of personal initiative and curiosity for research. These Orthodox clients apply for psychological help in three different therapeutic environments: the Pastoral Counseling Center of the Serbian Orthodox Church, the Community for Rehabilitation of Addicts: “Land of the Living” of the Bachka Bishopric of the Serbian Orthodox Church and private practice clinic.
