The Loss and Search for the Puer, A Consideration of Inferiority Feelings in Certain Male Adolescents.
Daher, Douglas
Adolescence, v16 n61 p145-58 Spr 1981
A sense of inferiority in adolescent males can result from a split senex-puer archetype, a Jungian construct focused on the individual's identification with and/or repression of psychic age and youth. Adolescents experience healing of the split senex-puer archetype to the degrees to which they involve themselves in the eros and power of their life situations. (Author/RH)
