Abstract
The essays collected in the present publication deal with personality psychology viewed in a process perspective, termed perceptgenesis from the vantage point of perception and microgenesis when neuroscience is involved.

One fruitful field of application was clinical diagnostics defence mechanisms being a major target; another was onativity, with test subjects from childhood upwards. A number of instruments constructed to map perceptgeneses are described in the text together with the theoretical frame supporting them, in particular an attempt to describe the creative personality. The context of international researchers within which this work... (More)
The essays collected in the present publication deal with personality psychology viewed in a process perspective, termed perceptgenesis from the vantage point of perception and microgenesis when neuroscience is involved. The perceptgenetic approach was tried in Lund already in the middle of the 20th century. One fruitful field of application was clinical diagnostics defence mechanisms being a major target; another was onativity, with test subjects from childhood upwards. A number of instruments constructed to map perceptgeneses are described in the text together with the theoretical frame supporting them, in particular an attempt to describe the creative personality. The context of international researchers within which this work progressed is described, together with the obstacles erected in our way by local notabilities. International favourites in both century psychology are briefly described as are contemporary partners, not least in the field of neuroscience microgenesis. (Less)
