Levels of emotional awareness: a cognitive-developmental theory and its application to psychopathology [published erratum appears in Am J Psychiatry 1987 Apr;144(4):542]
RD Lane and GE Schwartz
The authors present a cognitive-developmental theory of emotional awareness
that creates a bridge between normal and abnormal emotional states. Their
primary thesis is that emotional awareness is a type of cognitive
processing which undergoes five levels of structural transformation along a
cognitive-developmental sequence derived from an integration of the
theories of Piaget and Werner. The five levels of structural transformation
are awareness of bodily sensations, the body in action, individual
feelings, blends of feelings, and blends of blends of feelings. The authors
suggest applications of this model to current unresolved problems in
psychiatric theory, research, and practice.
