Free Association Between the Promise of Honesty and the Practice of Self-Disclosure: A Re-Evaluation of the Fundamental Rule in Psychoanalytic Therapies
Tihan, Eusebiu Jean (2026), Free Association Between the Promise of Honesty and the Practice of Self-Disclosure: A Re-Evaluation of the Fundamental Rule in Psychoanalytic Therapies, Cunoașterea Științifică, 5:3, 9-30, DOI: 10.58679/CS56884, https://www.cunoasterea.ro/en/free-association-between-the-promise-of-honesty-and-the-practice-of-self-disclosure/ Abstract This article undertakes a systematic re-evaluation of the conceptual and clinical distinction between the fundamental rule of psychoanalysis—an ethical commitment to honesty—and the technique of free association. It argues that their persistent conflation in psychoanalytic literature has engendered a critical ‘technical reductionism’, obscuring the relational-ethical foundation … Citeşte mai mult
The Vrancea Seismic Cycle Revisited: A Double-Percolation Framework and Vertical Stress Resetting at Intermediate Depths
Andrei, Dumitru N. (2026), The Vrancea Seismic Cycle Revisited: A Double-Percolation Framework and Vertical Stress Resetting at Intermediate Depths, Cunoașterea Științifică, 5:2, 21-27, DOI: 10.58679/CS64085, https://www.cunoasterea.ro/en/the-vrancea-seismic-cycle-revisited/ Abstract The Vrancea seismic zone represents a unique case of concentrated intermediate-depth seismicity in Europe, characterized by recurrent large earthquakes occurring within a narrow subcrustal volume between approximately 70 and 180 km depth. Observational studies indicate that seismic activity is confined to a small, nearly vertical seismogenic body, commonly interpreted as a remnant … Citeşte mai mult

The Baryonic Charge Hypothesis of Gravity

Classical theory considers gravity as an emergent property of mass; however, this model explores the possibility that interactions between baryons are responsible for the curvature of space. In this context, the potential existence of an anti-gravitational field associated … Citeşte mai mult
