What is the meaning of malignant social psychology?
Malignant social psychology refers to a social environment in which interactions and communications occur which diminish the "personhood" of those people experiencing that environment. In many cases these "malignant" interactions are not perpetrated from an intent of malice but rather are brought about through lack of insight or knowledge of the negative effects. The prescence may be linked to the culture of the environment and this has been well described in the dementia field by the work of prof. Tom Kitwood and Kathleen Bredin. - see ref material "dementia revisited". Edit here - One would assume that antisocial personality disorder is a much better example, as it's essentially a disregard for the rights and feelings of others.
