Abstract In 1960, Jung lamented psychology’s limited impact on global fate. Although Fordham tried to reassure him that Jungians were promoting his work, Jung was looking from the other end of the ...telescope, seeing the need to rescue humanity from its one‐sidedness that would ultimately lead to nuclear conflict. Astronomical evidence, such as the Fermi paradox, echoes Jung’s concerns about likely self‐destruction. Rather than promoting Jungian ideas to interested groups, the imperative lies in identifying crucial messages for global survival and engaging the public in them. Science provides some useful lessons because its concerted efforts over centuries led to the gradual integration of scientific thinking into the public psyche. These lessons suggest that, to cross the border from the Jungian to wider public domain, compromises are necessary, such as simplifying messages and making engagement enchanting and practical.

En 1960 Jung se désolait du faible impact de la psychologie sur le destin global. Bien que Fordham ait essayé de le rassurer, lui disant que les Jungiens faisaient la promotion de son travail, Jung regardait les choses d’un point de vue différent. Il voyait le besoin de sauver l’humanité de sa partialité, partialité qui l’amènerait en fin de compte au conflit nucléaire. Les indices venant de l’astronomie, comme le paradoxe de Fermi, font écho aux préoccupations de Jung concernant une probable autodestruction. Plutôt que de promouvoir les idées jungiennes à des groupes de personnes intéressées, l’impératif serait d’identifier des messages cruciaux pour la survie globale et de mobiliser le public avec de tels messages. La science fournit des leçons utiles parce que ses efforts d’ensemble sur une durée de plusieurs siècles ont apporté l’intégration progressive du penser scientifique dans la psyché publique. Ces leçons suggèrent que – pour traverser la frontière entre le monde Jungien et un domaine public plus large – des compromis sont nécessaires, tels que de simplifier les messages et de rendre l’implication séduisante et réaliste. La tâche de la psychologie analytique va au‐delà d’un individu, d’un groupe, ou même d’une génération, et nous avons besoin d’un débat afin de commencer à élaborer un consensus sur le chemin devant nous. Quelques suggestions initiales sont faites pour adopter une terminologie à laquelle le public puisse s’identifier, se concentrant sur la fonction transcendante comme véhicule principal pour surmonter la partialité et le conflit, et utilisant des personnalités telles Nelson Mandela pour démontrer l’utilité pratique.
1960 beklagte Jung den begrenzten Einfluß der Psychologie auf das globale Schicksal. Obwohl Fordham versuchte, ihm zu versichern, daß Jungianer seine Arbeit förderten, blickte Jung durch das andere Ende des Teleskops und erkannte die Notwendigkeit, die Menschheit aus ihrer Einseitigkeit zu retten, die letztendlich zu einem nuklearen Konflikt führen würde. Astronomische Beweise wie das Fermi‐Paradoxon spiegeln Jungs Bedenken hinsichtlich einer wahrscheinlichen Selbstzerstörung wider. Anstatt Jungs Ideen interessierten Gruppen vorzustellen, besteht die Notwendigkeit darin, entscheidende Botschaften für das globale Überleben zu identifizieren und die Öffentlichkeit dafür zu gewinnen. Die Wissenschaft liefert einige nützliche Lehren, denn ihre jahrhundertelangen gemeinsamen Bemühungen führten zu einer allmählichen Integration des wissenschaftlichen Denkens in die öffentliche Psyche. Diese Lektionen legen nahe, daß Kompromisse notwendig sind, um die Grenze vom Jungianischen zum breiteren öffentlichen Bereich zu überschreiten, wie zum Beispiel dadurch, Aussagen zu vereinfachen und die Beschäftigung damit anziehender und praktischer zu machen. Die Aufgabe der Analytischen Psychologie geht über ein Individuum, eine Gruppe oder sogar eine Generation hinaus, und es bedarf einer Debatte, um einen Konsens über den weiteren Weg zu erzielen. Es werden erste Vorschläge für die Übernahme einer für die Öffentlichkeit verständlichen Terminologie gemacht, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf der transzendenten Funktion als Hauptmittel zur Überwindung von Einseitigkeit und Konflikten liegt und wobei Persönlichkeiten wie Nelson Mandela zur Demonstration der praktischen Anwendung herangezogen werden.
Nel 1960, Jung si lamentò dell’impatto limitato della psicologia sul destino globale. Sebbene Fordham cercasse di rassicurarlo sul fatto che gli junghiani stessero promuovendo il suo lavoro, Jung stava guardando dall’altra estremità del telescopio, vedendo la necessità di salvare l’umanità dalla sua unilateralità che alla fine avrebbe portato a un conflitto nucleare. Le evidenze astronomiche, come il paradosso di Fermi, fanno eco alle preoccupazioni di Jung sulla probabile autodistruzione. Invece di promuovere le idee junghiane ai gruppi potenzialmente interessati, l’imperativo sta nell’identificare messaggi cruciali per la sopravvivenza globale e coinvolgere il pubblico. La scienza fornisce alcune lezioni utili ed i suoi sforzi nel corso dei secoli hanno portato alla graduale integrazione del pensiero scientifico nella psiche collettiva. Queste lezioni suggeriscono che, per attraversare il confine dal dominio junghiano al più vasto dominio pubblico, sono necessari dei compromessi, come semplificare i messaggi e rendere l’impegno affascinante e pratico. Il compito della psicologia analitica va oltre l’individuo, il gruppo, o perfino una generazione, ed è necessario un dibattito per iniziare a formare un consenso sulla strada da seguire. Vengono forniti alcuni suggerimenti iniziali per adottare una terminologia con cui il pubblico possa relazionarsi, concentrandosi sulla funzione trascendente come veicolo principale per superare l’unilateralità ed il conflitto, e utilizzando figure come Nelson Mandela per dimostrare l’applicazione pratica.
В 1960 году Юнг посетовал на ограниченное влияние психологии на судьбы мира. Хотя Фордхэм пытался заверить его, что юнгианцы продвигают его учение, Юнг смотрел на это с другого конца телескопа и видел необходимость в спасении человечества от односторонности, которая в конечном счете может привести к ядерному конфликту. Астрономические данные, например, парадокс Ферми, подтверждают опасения Юнга по поводу возможного самоуничтожения человечества. Необходимо не только распространять взгляды Юнга среди заинтересованных групп, но и искать в них важнейшие идеи, связанные с глобальным выживанием, представляя их общественности. Наука может дать нам несколько полезных уроков, поскольку согласованные усилия ученых на протяжении нескольких веков привели к постепенной интеграции научного мышления в общественную психику. Эти уроки показывают, что переход от юнгианского сообщества к более обширной общественной сфере требует компромиссов – упрощения идей и повышения привлекательности и практичности их использования. Задачи аналитической психологии не ограничиваются индивидом, группой или даже поколением: для начала формирования консенсуса относительно дальнейших действий требуется широкое обсуждение. В качестве первых шагов автор предлагает использовать терминологию, понятную широкой публике, с акцентом на трансцендентной функции как главном средстве преодоления односторонности и конфликтов, а также обращаться к таким фигурам, как Нельсон Мандела, в качестве иллюстрации ее практического применения.

Estas lecciones sugieren que, para cruzar la frontera de lo Junguiano a un dominio público más amplio, son necesarios compromisos, como simplificar los mensajes y hacer que el compromiso sea encantador y práctico. La tarea de la psicología analítica va más allá de un individuo, grupo o incluso generación, y es necesario un debate para empezar a formar un consenso sobre el camino a seguir. Se hacen algunas sugerencias iniciales para adoptar una terminología con la que el público pueda identificarse, centrándose en la función trascendente como vehículo principal para superar la unilateralidad y el conflicto, y utilizando figuras como Nelson Mandela para demostrar la aplicación práctica.
公众对分析心理学的理解 1960 年, 荣格曾感叹心理学对全球命运的影响的有限性。尽管福特汉姆试图向他一再保证, 荣格学派的学者们正在推动他的工作, 但荣格却是从望远镜的另一端看到了将人类从片面性中拯救出来的必要性, 他预期这种片面性最终将导致核冲突。一些天文学, 如费米悖论, 也提出人类可能自我毁灭证据, 这与荣格的担忧不谋而合。当务之急不是向感兴趣的群体宣传荣格思想, 而是确定全球生存的关键信息, 并让公众参与其中。科学提供了一些有用的经验, 因为几个世纪以来, 科学的共同努力使科学思想逐渐融入了公众的心理。 这些经验教训表明, 要想从荣格心理学跨越到更广阔的公共领域, 就必须做出妥协, 例如简化信息, 使参与变得既迷人又实用。分析心理学的任务超出了一个人、一个团体甚至一代人的范围, 因此需要进行一场辩论, 开始就未来的道路形成共识。本文提出了一些初步建议, 如采用公众能够理解的术语, 将重点放在超越功能上, 将其作为克服片面性和冲突的主要工具, 并利用纳尔逊‐曼德拉这样的人物来展示实际应用。
Although C.G. Jung's interest in normality wavered throughout his career, it was one of the areas he identified in later life as worthy of further research. He began his career using a definition of ...normality which would have been the target of Foucault's criticism, had Foucault chosen to review Jung's work. However, Jung then evolved his thinking to a standpoint that was more aligned to Foucault's own. Thereafter, the post Jungian concept of normality has remained relatively undeveloped by comparison with psychoanalysis and mainstream psychology. Jung's disjecta membra on the subject suggest that, in contemporary analytical psychology, too much focus is placed on the process of individuation to the neglect of applications that consider collective processes. Also, there is potential for useful research and development into the nature of conflict between individuals and societies, and how normal people typically develop in relation to the spectrum between individuation and collectivity.
Wearable physical activity (PA) monitors have improved the ability to estimate free‐living total energy expenditure (TEE) but their application during arduous military training alongside more ...well‐established research methods has not been widely documented. This study aimed to assess the validity of two wrist‐worn activity monitors and a PA log against doubly labeled water (DLW) during British Army Officer Cadet (OC) training. For 10 days of training, twenty (10 male and 10 female) OCs (mean ± SD: age 23 ± 2 years, height 1.74 ± 0.09 m, body mass 77.0 ± 9.3 kg) wore one research‐grade accelerometer (GENEActiv, Cambridge, UK) on the dominant wrist, wore one commercially available monitor (Fitbit SURGE, USA) on the non‐dominant wrist, and completed a self‐report PA log. Immediately prior to this 10‐day period, participants consumed a bolus of DLW and provided daily urine samples, which were analyzed by mass spectrometry to determine TEE. Bivariate correlations and limits of agreement (LoA) were employed to compare TEE from each estimation method to DLW. Average daily TEE from DLW was 4112 ± 652 kcal·day−1 against which the GENEActiv showed near identical average TEE (mean bias ± LoA: −15 ± 851 kcal.day−1) while Fitbit tended to underestimate (−656 ± 683 kcal·day−1) and the PA log substantially overestimate (+1946 ± 1637 kcal·day−1). Wearable physical activity monitors provide a cheaper and more practical method for estimating free‐living TEE than DLW in military settings. The GENEActiv accelerometer demonstrated good validity for assessing daily TEE and would appear suitable for use in large‐scale, longitudinal military studies.
To develop evidence-based role-specific physical employment standards and tests for National Ambulance Resilience Unit (NARU) specialist paramedics.
Sixty-two (53 men, 9 women) paramedics performed ...an array of (1) realistic reconstructions of critical job-tasks (criterion job performance); (2) simplified, easily-replicable simulations of those reconstructions and; (3) fitness tests that are portable and/or practicable to administer with limited resources or specialist equipment. Pearson's correlations and ordinary least products regression were used to assess relationships between tasks and tests. Performance on reconstructions, subject-matter expert and participant ratings were combined to derive minimum acceptable job performance levels, which were used to determine cut-scores on appropriate correlated simulations and tests.
The majority of performance times were highly correlated with their respective simulations (range of r: 0.73–0.90), with the exception of those replicating water rescue (r range: 0.28–0.47). Regression compatibility intervals provided three cut-scores for each job-task on an appropriate simulation and fitness test.
This study provides a varied and easily-implementable physical capability assessment for NARU personnel, empirically linked to job performance, with flexible options depending on organisational requirements.
•Specialist paramedics require evidence-based physical standards and tests for role.•We designed complex realistic scenarios to measure criterion job performance.•Field-expedient gym tests and job simulations predicted criterion performance.•We combined objective and subjective data to define acceptable performance.•Regression uncertainty intervals provided flexible employment standards.
This paper is a response to Andrew Samuels’s ‘The transcendent function in politics: NO!’ (2010). In that paper he makes a number of criticisms to support his argument that the transcendent function ...is not appropriate for political and social development. Whilst a number of his criticisms are valid, they are misdirected because they are against one‐sidedness or identification with a single position, which are not features of the transcendent function but problems that it overcomes. To make the counter argument, this paper draws on oft‐overlooked aspects of Jung’s book Psychological Types, empirical research, contemporary leadership theory, and practical examples to show that the transcendent function’s omission from political debate can maintain and exacerbate social inequity and the political divisions that might otherwise be bridged. The transcendent function is highly relevant to politics and can help achieve deeper and longer‐lasting change than a one‐sided approach. It is one of the core aspects of analytical psychology that has the potential to make innovative and transformational contributions to political discourse.
Cet article est une réponse à celui d’Andrew Samuels ‘La fonction transcendante en politique: NON!’ (2010). Dans cet article il fait un certain nombre de critiques pour soutenir son argumentation qui est que la fonction transcendante n’est pas appropriée en ce qui concerne le développement politique et social. Même si certaines de ses critiques sont recevables, elles sont mal orientées parce qu’elles sont contre le caractère unilatéral ou l’identification avec une position unique, qui ne sont pas des qualités propres à la fonction transcendante mais les problèmes qu’elle surmonte. Pour nourrir la contre‐argumentation, cet article s’appuie sur des aspects souvent négligés du livre Les Types Psychologiques de Jung, des recherches empiriques, la théorie contemporaine du leadership, et des exemples pratiques pour montrer qu’omettre la fonction transcendante du débat politique peut maintenir et exacerber l’inégalité sociale et les divisions politiques qui seraient sinon rapprochées. La fonction transcendante est hautement pertinente en politique et peut aider à accomplir des changements plus profonds et plus durables que ne le ferait une approche unilatérale. C’est un des aspects principaux de la psychologie analytique qui ont le potentiel d’apporter une contribution innovante et transformationnelle au discours politique.
Dieser Artikel ist eine Antwort auf Andrew Samuels 'The transcendent function in Politics: NO!' (2010). In diesem Beitrag bringt er eine Reihe von Kritikpunkten vor, um sein Argument zu untermauern, daß die transzendente Funktion der politischen und sozialen Entwicklung nicht angemessen ist. Während eine Reihe seiner Kritiken berechtigt ist, weisen sie in eine falsche Richtung, weil sie gegen Einseitigkeit oder Identifikation mit einer einzigen Position gerichtet sind, was keine Merkmale der transzendenten Funktion sind, sondern Probleme, die sie überwindet. Als Gegenargument stützt sich dieser Beitrag auf oft übersehene Aspekte von Jungs Buch Psychologische Typen, empirische Forschung, zeitgenössische Führungstheorie und praktische Beispiele um zu zeigen, daß die Auslassung der transzendenten Funktion aus der politischen Debatte soziale Ungleichheit und politische Spaltungen aufrechterhalten und verschärfen kann, die andernfalls überbrückt werden könnten. Die transzendente Funktion ist für die Politik von hoher Relevanz und kann dazu beitragen, tiefere und länger anhaltende Veränderungen zu erreichen als eine einseitige Herangehensweise. Es ist einer der Kernaspekte der Analytischen Psychologie, der das Potential hat, innovative und transformative Beiträge zum politischen Diskurs zu leisten.
Questo articolo è una risposta a “La funzione trascendente in politica: NO!” di Andrew Samuels (2010). In quell’articolo l'Autore fa una serie di critiche in sostegno della sua argomentazione secondo cui la funzione trascendente non è appropriata per lo sviluppo politico e sociale. Sebbene alcune delle sue critiche siano valide, sono male indirizzate poiché sono contrarie all’unilateralità o all’identificazione con una singola posizione, che non sono caratteristiche della funzione trascendente ma problemi che essa supera. Per sostenere una controargomentazione, questo articolo si basa su aspetti spesso trascurati del libro di Jung Tipi Psicologici, ricerca empirica, teoria della leadership contemporanea, ed esempi pratici per dimostrare che l’omissione della funzione trascendente dal dibattito politico può mantenere ed esacerbare la disuguaglianza sociale e le divisioni politiche che altrimenti potrebbero essere colmate. La funzione trascendente è molto rilevante per la politica e può aiutare ad ottenere un cambiamento più profondo e duraturo rispetto ad un approccio unilaterale. È uno degli aspetti chiave della psicologia analitica che ha il potenziale per apportare contributi innovativi e trasformativi al dibattito politico.
Данная статья является откликом на статью Эндрю Сэмюэлса «Трансцендентная функция в политике: НЕТ!» (2010). В этой статье он высказывает ряд критических замечаний в поддержку своего мнения о том, что трансцендентная функция неприменима в политических и социальных вопросах. Хотя некоторые из его замечаний обоснованны, ориентированность их ошибочна, так как они направлены против односторонности или идентификации с одной из позиций, что является не свойствами трансцендентной функции, а проблемами, которые она преодолевает. В целях контраргументации данная статья опирается на часто упускаемые из виду аспекты книги Юнга «Психологические типы», эмпирические исследования, современную теорию лидерства и практические примеры, таким образом показывая, что игнорирование трансцендентной функции в политических дебатах может поддерживать и усугублять социальное неравенство и политические разногласия, которые в противном случае можно было бы преодолеть. Трансцендентная функция очень важна в политике; она может способствовать достижению более глубоких и долгосрочных изменений, чем при одностороннем подходе. Она представляет собой один из основных аспектов аналитической психологии, который способен внести инновационный и трансформирующий вклад в политический дискурс.
El presente trabajo es una respuesta a ‘La función trascendente en política: ¡NO!’ de Andrew Samuels (2010). En dicho trabajo el autor realiza algunas críticas para fundamentar su argumento de que la función trascendente no es apropiada para el desarrollo político y social. Mientras que un número de sus críticas son válidas, las mismas están mal encaminadas porque están en contra de una posición unilateral o de la identificación con una posición singular, las cuales no son rasgos de la función trascendente sino de problemas que la misma puede superar. Para contra argumentar, el presente trabajo se basa en aspectos a menudo omitidos del libro Tipos Psicológicos de Jung, investigaciones empíricas, teoría contemporánea del liderazgo, y ejemplos prácticos para mostrar que la omisión de la función trascendente en el debate político puede mantener y exacerbar la inequidad social y la división política que de otro modo podría subsanarse. La función trascendente es altamente relevante a la política y puede ayudar a lograr cambios más profundos y duraderos que un abordaje unilateral. Es uno de los aspectos centrales de la psicología analítica que posee el potencial de realizar contribuciones innovadoras y transformadoras al discurso político.
政治中的超越功能:是的!
本文是对Andrew Samuels在2010年所写的论文“政治中的超越功能:不!“的回应。在那篇论文中, 他提出了一些批评以支持他的论点, 即超越性功能不适合政治和社会发展。虽然他的一些批评是有道理的, 但这些批评的方向是错误的, 因为这些批评反对片面性或对单一立场的认同, 而这不是超越功能的特点, 而是它所克服的问题。为了进行反驳, 本文借鉴了荣格《心理类型》一书中经常被忽视的方面、实证研究、当代领导力理论和实际案例, 以表明超越功能在政治辩论中的遗漏会维持并加剧社会不平等和本来可以弥合的政治分歧。超越性功能与政治高度相关, 与片面的方法相比, 它可以帮助实现更深入、更持久的变革。它是分析心理学的核心内容之一, 有可能对政治话语做出创新和变革的贡献。
•A novel dual source vapor injection heat pump is designed and analyzed.•It is first attempt to recover ventilation heat by a vapor injection compressor.•A waste heat recovery rate of more than 100% ...is achievable.•It has a COP of 23.2% higher than a conventional air source heat pump.•The largest exergy destruction takes place in the compressor.
A novel dual source vapor injection heat pump (DSVIHP) using exhaust and ambient air is proposed. The air exhausted from the building first releases energy to the medium-pressure evaporator and is then mixed with the ambient air to heat the low-pressure evaporator. A vapor injection (VI) compressor of two inlets is connected with the low and medium pressure evaporators. It's first time that a VI compressor is employed to recover the ventilation heat. The system can minimize the ventilation heat loss and provide a unique defrosting approach by using the exhaust waste heat. Fundamentals of the proposed DSVIHP are illustrated. Mathematical models are built. Both energetic and exergetic analyses are carried out under variable conditions. The results indicate that the DSVIHP has superior thermodynamic performance. The superiority is more appreciable at a lower ambient temperature. It has a higher COP than the conventional vapor injection heat pump and air source heat pump by 11.3% and 23.2% respectively at an ambient temperature of -10 °C and condensation temperature of 45 °C. The waste heat recovery ratio from the exhaust air is more than 100%. The novel DSVIHP has great potential in the cold climate area application.
Nuclear forensic publications, performance tests, and research and development efforts typically target the bulk global inventory of intentionally safeguarded materials, such as plutonium (Pu) and ...uranium (U). Other materials, such as neptunium (Np), pose a nuclear security risk as well. Trafficking leading to recovery of an interdicted Np sample is a realistic concern especially for materials originating in countries that reprocesses fuel. Using complementary forensic methods, potential signatures for an unknown Np oxide sample were investigated. Measurement results were assessed against published Np processes to present hypotheses as to the original intended use, method of production, and origin for this Np oxide.
Display omitted
•Full forensic characterization of a neptunium oxide sample.•Successful assay of neptunium oxide using controlled potential coulometry despite lack of available standards.•Chronometry of sample completed showing young model age.•Interesting Pu isotopic composition narrows potential site of origin.

Today's particle accelerators and detectors are among the most complicated and expensive scientific instruments ever built, and they exploit almost every aspect of today's cutting-edge engineering ...technologies. In many cases, accelerator needs have been the driving force behind these new technologies, necessity being the mother of invention. This paper gives an overview of some engineering requirements for the construction and operation of present-day accelerators and detectors.
