“…Ordnungs-Ordnungs-Übergänge sind als Selbstorganisationsund Synchronisationsprozesse zu interpretieren [14 ± 17], für die systeminterne Wechselwirkungen sowohl zwischen den beteiligten Subsystemen, als auch zwischen System und Umwelt Voraussetzung sind. Dabei determiniert nicht der Umweltinput die Gestalt der entstehenden Muster, vielmehr sind diese Muster das Resultat systeminterner Prozesse [17,18]. Selbstorganisation führt demnach zur spontanen Entstehung und Veränderung von kohärenten, dynamischen Strukturen in komplexen Systemen [13].…”

The Autogenic Training (AT) is a well established relaxation technique and psychotherapy tool. We report the use of nonlinear routines, the Multi-scaled Time-Frequency-Distribution (mTFD) for the graphical display of vegetative rhythms, and Post-Event-Scan (PES) for the direct visual identification of coupling between physiological subsystems. Applying these methods to time series of respiration, arterial blood pressure, and cutaneous forehead blood content fluctuations in controls (n = 11) or AT-experts (ATE, n = 11) induced psychomotor drive reduction during orthostatic stress allowed the instantaneous identification of a 0.15 Hz-rhythm. This rhythm prevailed in ATE significantly longer resulting a significantly robust 1 : 1 coupling between cutaneous blood content fluctuations and respiration. Consequently, we hypothesize that the "0.15 Hz-rhythm" in the cutaneous blood content fluctuations described previously which was associated with the subjective experience of profound psychomotor relaxation reflects an order-order transition in peripheral signals of central nervous origin. Results produced with the aid of these analytic tools support the efficacy of the AT induced, synergetic relaxation response.

“…Global qualities can also act as constraints and/or boundary conditions of the realized system dynamics. If they resonate with these dynamics, they will be, themselves, more or less prone to change (Haken, 1996; Kelso, 1995; Schiepek, 1999a).…”

Summary: This contribution is based on the evidence that most psychological practitioners are concerned with the facilitation of change processes. They help people to learn, to develop, or to change patterns of cognitions, emotions, and behaviors. Consequently, they need assessment tools that enable them to represent the essential features of the complex systems they are concerned with, i.e., structure of functioning and dynamics. After some introductory remarks on systemic assessment, we focus on two methods of comprehensive data representation: one of them is used in order to represent the structure of functioning of a system, the other to assess its dynamics. The first one is called “idiographic system modeling” and represents the interrelations between the most important variables of a system by graphical means. The other one is based on a continuously produced flow of data about the functioning of a system and on a continuous screening of dynamic features of this time series (critical fluctuations, degree of synchronization, and stability vs. instability). It is called “real-time monitoring.” Perhaps this methodology can help to bridge the gap between research, usually realized in artificial laboratory settings, and the change processes taking place in practice.

The concept of "states of mind" (configurational analysis by M. J. Horowitz) allows for a comprehensive phenomenological description of psychotherapy processes. The method is exemplified by a single case analysis of a 13-session solution oriented therapy. Some of the representative state-transitions and state-cycles are described. Additionally, the states-of-mind-approach is integrated into concepts of self-organization and pattern transitions in complex dynamic systems. States of mind can be defined as attractors of closely interconnected physiological, mental, and social processes. In this sense, psychotherapy would lead to changes in attractor constellations which represent important aspects of personality.
