Abstract

Gossip, a phenomenon as old as history itself, is reflected upon in terms of its need-fulfilling functions for persons and social groups. It is seen as one of the sources of knowledge about life that has potentials for wisdom, and its interpersonal and intrapsychic functions are shown to have similarities to many salient functions of psychotherapy.

摘要

流言蜚语，这一与历史本身同样古老的现象，从其对个人和社会群体的需求满足功能方面得到了反思。它被视为生活知识的来源之一，具有蕴含智慧的潜力，并且其人际和内心功能被证明与心理治疗的许多显著功能相似。
