Confirmation of Maslow’s Hypothesis of Synergy: Developing an Acceptance of Selfishness at the Workplace Scale
This study aimed to develop a new Acceptance of Selfishness at the Workplace Scale (ASWS) and to confirm Maslow’s hypothesis of synergy: if both a sense of contribution and acceptance of selfishness at the workplace are high, workers are psychologically healthy. In a cross-sectional study with employees of three Japanese companies, 656 workers answered a self-administered questionnaire on paper completely (response rate = 66.8%). Each questionnaire was submitted to us in a sealed envelope and analyzed. The ASWS indicated high internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.86). Significant (p < 0.001) positive moderate correlations between ASWS scores and job control scores support the ASWS’s convergent and discriminant validity. Significant (p < 0.001) associations of ASWS scores with psychological distress and work engagement supported the ASWS’s criterion validity. In short, ASWS was a psychometrically satisfactory measure. Significant (p < 0.05) interactions between a sense of contribution and acceptance of selfishness at the workplace in linear regression models showed that when those two factors are low, psychological distress becomes high. However, when a sense of contribution and acceptance of selfishness are high, work engagement also becomes high. Thus, Maslow’s hypothesis of synergy was confirmed.

Three approaches to psychotherapy II. Part 2, Maslow and self actualization
These films are the second of a series – preceded by the famous “Gloria” films, which have received international recognition. The series follows the same format as the earlier Three Approaches to Psychotherapy. Each film includes an introduction by the therapist describing his method of therapy, followed by an interview with the client Kathy, and finally a summation by the therapist of the interview. The viewer has the unique opportunity of experiencing a private therapeutic session with three prominent therapists. Each therapist has a different technique, but each contributes significantly to Kathy’s growth. Dr. Shostrom, recently retired from clinical practice, Newport Beach, California, is a Diplomate of the American Board of Professional Psychology and author of actualizing Therapy, San Diego, Edits, 1976. Kathy felt challenged in her interview with Dr. Shostrom, and through his work with feelings and bioenergetic techniques, she sees this as a “working” session.

Psychology of religion and the books that made it happen
On the centennial of the death of William James (1842-1910), I approached faculty members at eighteen major theological centers of learning requesting them to identify the twelve most important books in the field of the psychology of religion written between James' 1902 classic The Varieties of Religious Experience up to Peter Homan's 1970 Theology After Freud. The request was for each faculty member (by agreement to remain anonymous) to identify the twelve books during that time period (1902-1970) which, in their opinion, constituted major contributions to the development of the discipline of psychology of religion. By mutual agreement, James was credited with being the purported founder of the psychology of religion and Homans the quintessential culmination of the discipline's respectability. Though obviously subjective, the survey did register a consensus of scholars teaching in the field and what follows is a critical assessment of the merits of those books which they selected.
