There is no such ambiguity in relation to Rogers, Frankl’s or Grof’s schools of therapy. After a conceptual differentiation between humanistic and existential paradigms and grounded on the Gestalt theory, the Gestalt Therapy is classified as an existential approach.

On the base of the distinction by Buber between the I from the IIt and the I from the IThou, the paper concludes that the Cycle allows a good understanding of the IIt functional experience but not for the IThou dialogical relationship. Therefore an Interpersonal Cycle is proposed taking as a model the Personal Existential Analysis. It is assumed that this new cycle will be more useful for the therapeutic work.

The calculations were based on two different models: the first one was a linear correlation between the solution absorption frequencies in nonpolar solvents and the solvent refractive indices. The accuracy of both methods was checked with anthracene and some of its derivatives: both methods gave a good agreement with the experimental values.

Polarizabilities in excited electronic states obtained from electrochromic data were utilized in order to find out the best interaction radii of the solute molecule with their solvation shell. The theoretical expression derived by Abe gave the best polarizability value in excited state when van der Waals volume was employed for determining of the molecular cavity of the solute in solution.

Este enfoque psicoterapéutico, en su eje estructural, afirma que hay cuatro motivaciones fundamentales en la existencia humana, siendo la cuarta de ellas el sentido. En el presente artículo se describe un caso en que el paciente consulta por motivos que aparecen de sentido. Sin embargo, el trabajo terapéutico devela que estos temas de ausencia de sentido son secundarios a un problema de otra motivación fundamental.

La rápida resolución fue probablemente una combinación de suerte, sugestión, intervención en el momento oportuno, e imponderables misteriosas que suelen estar presentes en los procesos terapéuticos.
