Psychological Abuse
Michael D. Langone, Ph.D.
Abstract
Psychological abuse refers to situations in which techniques of persuasion and
control are used to exploit and/or otherwise mistreat people. Its opposite,
respect, has four aspects: the honoring of mind, autonomy, identity, and dignity
(MAID). At heart, psychological abuse and respect are ethical concepts. In
treating victims of psychological abuse, it is important to address the ethical
dimension, for recognizing that they have been wronged is crucial to victims'
recovery of mind, autonomy, identity, and dignity. Affirmation of the ethical
dimension in individual cases of abuse also contributes to a strengthening of
the unwritten ethical rules that undergird pluralistic societies.
