ABOUT
MacBain & Boyd Publishers is pleased to announce the launching of a new scholarly journal in the field of mental health, The Behavioral Mind: A Journal of Personality Disorders, this Spring, 2018. This is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal. John H. Morgan, Ph.D.(Hartford), D.Sc.(London), Psy.D.(FH/Oxford), serves as Editor-in-Chief with a distinguished Board of Editors attached. Recently retired Senior Fellow in Behavioral Science of Foundation House/Oxford (UK), Dr. Morgan's recent publications include Clinical Psychotherapy: A History of Theory and Practice (from Sigmund Freud to Aaron Beck) and Psychopathology: A Clinical Guide to Personality Disorders.
AIM & SCOPE
The birth and continued prominence of humanistic psychology, the Third Force, initiated by Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers, has proven pivotal in the continual dialogue, (not always pleasant but always productive), between the various schools of biological psychiatry and psychoanalysis, a fact that cannot be denied. This interface between the diagnostic labeling embraced by the DSM and the humanistic approach to psychotherapy embodied in the Third Force has proven most productive in the advancement of mental health treatment in the 20th and 21st centuries, and this publication, The Behavioral Mind: A Journal of Personality Disorders, is committed to creating a positive and productive environment for that ongoing discussion and dialogue.
This journal strives to present a balance between the DSM and humanistic psychology and will have as its focus the fostering of work by adjunct and junior faculty teaching and researching in the field of psychology.
