PSYCHOLOGICAL AIDS AND HINDRANCES IN THE PRIESTLY FORMATION

• Languages of publication: PL

Abstracts

EN

The present paper is aimed at presenting selected psychological factors which may facilitate formation to the priesthood and those which may hinder seminary formation and the subsequent life of the priest. I separated two potential sources of hindrances: factors of a psychological nature and traits of personality. I proved that deficiencies in religious life and lack of support in the priestly com-munity are the reason of high anxiety and depressive states in clergy. As for per-sonality, I indicated emotional instability, introvertive tendencies, high selfreli-ance and autonomy, difficulties in accepting authority and inclination to dissimu-lation – as factors which hinder the fulfillment of vocation to the priesthood.
