With regard to validity, results from a longitudinal study of 36 depressed patients and nine controls as weil as often schizophrenic patients and their relatives will be referred to. These results are used to illustrate the following principles which have to be taken into account when studying facial behavior: a) communication strongly facilitates facial expression, b) activation of facial behavior follows the "principle of least effort", and c) the principle of individual specificity applies to the association of nonverbal behavior and mood states. Making allowance for these principles has, among others, consequences a) for situations or conditions under which to asses behavior (specifically conditions of communication), b) for data analysis (e.g., dealing with frequent and rare events), and c) for empirical or experimental strategies (e.g., aggregation of single-case longitudinal comparisons). From the results on facial behavior during depression it can be concluded that the nonverbal reaction tendencies of endogenous and neurotic depressed patients differ. Moreover, the differential behavioral pattems observed cast doubt on the assumption of a homogeneity of affects in depression. Taking into account the conditions which govern it, facial behavior has proved to be a valid and, especially, a differential indicator for pathoIogic affective states and their changes. Given the fact that a psychiatric illness generally incorporates emotional problems it is more than surprising that little attention has been paid to the systematic study of emotional behavior. Some of the reasons for this will be clarified in the following.}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {en} } @incollection{Ellgring1987, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich}, title = {FACS [Facial Action Coding System]}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50370}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1987}, abstract = {FACS, Abk. f.

This result emerged from longitudinal studies on depressed patients. From the analysis of various nonverbal behaviours it can be concluded that the depressed state is indicated by nonverbal elements in a logical "or-" rather than "and-connection" or in a hierarchical way. It is maintained that the relationship of psychological relevant states (mood) and nonverbal behaviour needs to be studied by intra-individual comparisons to reveal the specifically close relationships effective in everyday communication. With regard to the pragmatic aspect of communication, elements in the nonverbal signalling system seem to possess different levels of generality. However, from decoding studies it can be shown that even very subtle behavioural differences can be detected by an observer. Thus specific signals can become effective in interaction given a familiarity with the idiosyncratic usage.}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{VollmerEllgringFerstl1992, author = {Vollmer, H.

Personality factors did not allow a valid prediction of the kind 01' th~apy termination. nor were there clear deviations from the norm. Analyzed as a group. the addicts showed only minor changes that appeared over the course of treatment. These results correspond to data reported on alcohol dependency (cf. Wanke 1987). A more differentiated picture is gained when stable and changeable components of personality and analyzed separately. Changeable components are of special relevance for treatment. From the current study these were characteristics of action regulation, that is, activation and impulse control, social interaction, and somatic reactions (sleep disorders, bodily reactions to drug deprivation). For relapse prevention, attention should be given to stable, persistent, problematic components. Persistent suicidal ideas turned out to be one such aspect. Like the differentiation between state and trait anxiety, stable and variable components could also be separated for other domains of personality when they are used to describe the course of treatment. How can personality concepts and instruments for assessment be utilized for treatment? The claim of therapists to predict the outcome of a treatment may be realized for only a delimited period of time. Especially at such critical points as shortly before relapse, a firm prediction might be possible only rarely (Wanke 1987). Lack of predictability could be a warning which, however, can be verified only afterward. According to the current results, one benefit of personality concepts could be to specify targets of change on an individual basis and thus clarify effects of therapeutic interventions. Personality concepts can help patients to better understand their problems and to recognize changes as weil as persistent areas of vulnerability.}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {en} } @incollection{Ellgring1987, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich}, title = {Nichtverbale Kommunikation}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50383}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1987}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {de} } @incollection{Ellgring1987, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich}, title = {Ausdruck}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50363}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1987}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {de} } @incollection{Ellgring1987, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich}, title = {Ausdrucksforschung}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50350}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1987}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {de} } @incollection{Ellgring1986, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich}, title = {Nonverbale Kommunikation}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50230}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1986}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {de} } @incollection{EllgringBaenningerHuber1986, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich and B{\"a}nninger-Huber, E.}, title = {The coding of reported emotional experiences: antecedents and reactions}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50247}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1986}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {en} } @incollection{EllgringRime1986, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich and Rim{\´e}, Bernard}, title = {Individual differences in emotional reactions}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50252}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1986}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {en} } @incollection{EllgringWallbott1986, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich and Wallbott, HG}, title = {The German case: personality correlates of emotional reactivity}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50266}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1986}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {en} } @incollection{Ellgring1994, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich}, title = {Mensch - Umwelt - Beziehungen : Soziale Interaktion und soziale Kognition}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50290}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1994}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {de} } @incollection{Ellgring1990, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich}, title = {Verhaltensmedizin}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50304}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1990}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{Ellgring1975, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich}, title = {Kommunikation und Schlußfolgerung {\"u}ber nichtsprachliches Verhalten}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50207}, year = {1975}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {de} } @incollection{Ellgring1991, author = {Ellgring, Johann Heinrich}, title = {Audiovisuell unterst{\"u}tzte Beobachtung}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50347}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1991}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {de} } @incollection{ClarkeEllgring1983, author = {Clarke, AH and Ellgring, Johann Heinrich}, title = {Computer-aided video}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-50332}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {1983}, abstract = {The recent developments in microprocessor electronics and time-code equipment have vastly improved the efficiency of working with video material so that through the combination of data processing and video recording equipment a substantial rationalization of both data acquisition procedures and functional control of the recording machines may be achieved.

In this paper, it is proposed that observed behavioural sequences may be formally described by rules of syntax, thus implying the likelihood of structural organisation as opposed to, for example, linear time dependence between behavioural states. This being the case, differing sets of rules and grammars respectively can be expected for various social situations. Clinical interviews and discu~sions between couples on a topic of marital conflict were analysed, the on-off patterns of speech and gaze being taken as data. The resulting behavioural repertoire was regarded, in the sense of a formal grammar, as the terminal vocabulary. A set of rewriting rules was determined and their associated probabilities inferred. The situational conditions were found to be reflectedin the syntactic features of the grammatical model - the terminal vocabulary, the production rules and the production probabilities.}, subject = {Psychologie}, language = {en} }
