Planning and stimulating changes in a goal- and personality-oriented manner
The PSI-Functional Analysis shows pivotal points for change at every level of personality. Especially the self-management level, according to the PSI-Theory the seventh level of personality, contains scope for development and change, which is the basis for well-being and self-determined change. This level is represented by the SSI (Self-Management Inventory) in combination with the HAKEMP (Action Situation Orientation). Persons whose self-management competences are well developed can experience during counselling how their strengths and weaknesses are distributed, and with this knowledge decide for themselves which abilities they want to develop further. A counsellor or trainer can work together with the client to determine which training methods are particularly promising.
He can also make recommendations or offer professional support in the development process. A clarification of the motive situation also helps in difficult decision-making situations or by activating the motivation for change. It can also be helpful in personality-oriented counselling (Ritz, 2017/Ritz-Schulte, 2011) to be informed about one’s own personal style. This does not contain much potential for change, however merely knowing about it can be important when it comes to accepting oneself and getting to know oneself. In addition, personal style holds developmental tasks that last a lifetime. These can also be a topic in counselling situations. Personal styles are usually more a topic in individual settings, while self-management training can also be well implemented in group settings.

Sustainable therapeutic success through functional analysis
The Osnabrück Personality Diagnostics Accompanying Therapy (TOP) contains valuable modules that enable a resource- and change-oriented functional analysis of personality. Transactions on the process and relationship level that remain unconscious are particularly relevant to change. The therapist is part of the transaction in the therapy process (Ritz, 2017; Ritz-Schulte et al., 2008). The functional-analysis enables the identification of pivotal points for change and creates a model of the emergence of symptoms which beyond the perspective of the disturbance, points out causes beyond the symptoms. From this, important conclusions can be drawn for a sustainable change of maladaptive transactions, which the therapist can influence in the process and in the relationship to the patient.
There are many possibilities for the functional-analytical identification of factors that lead to a disorder: motive discrepancies, unfavourable motive implementation styles and the frustrations associated with them, energy losses, alienation and self-management problems when faced with stress-factors. Only if interventions are derived directly from the understanding of symptom development can a lasting change or even healing be supported. An intervention on the content level is futile because no changes can be expected from conscious and targeted instructions and insights, especially not in psychotherapy.

Discovering and promoting personal potential
The PSI-Functional-Analysis refers to personal resources that more or less fit the required profile of a workplace. These are, for example, stable personal styles. Especially when it comes to promotion or change within the organization, a human resources developer pays attention to a good fit regarding personality and the requirement profile. Stable personal styles, also called first reactions in PSI terminology, can be changed. Our functional analysis also allows an assessment of the initial reaction under stress conditions. How stable is the initial reaction under stress and strain? Every initial reaction, and this applies especially to extreme manifestations, implies developmental tasks that a person can cope with more or less well. Another test module, the SSI (Self-Management Inventory), provides important information for this purpose.
The SSI provides answers to the question of whether someone can already master his development tasks so well that he is able to act as flexibly as possible in different contexts. In addition, the SSI profile can be used to derive “pivotal points” for change and training ideas for developing certain self-management skills. In addition to personal styles and self-management skills, motives are important. Which motives fit the requirement profile? Are relationship motives in demand because customer contacts are important, or rather performance or power motives? Two test modules of the PSI-Functional Analysis formulate valid answers to these questions: The Motive Implementation Test (MUT) for conscious motives and the Operant Multi-Motive-Test (OMT) for unconscious motives. A comparison of both motive groups can reveal power-sapping motive discrepancies or, however, open up additional energy sources. Beyond the motive strengths, the motive implementation styles are of course interesting; they can be more or less ideal depending on the motive area and provide valuable training information in their specific constellation.
