An attempt to objectify the therapeutic process: a working model.
On the basis of their observations in daily psychoanalytic work the authors developed five objective criteria for "bad" analytic hours. These criteria involve affect, intellectualization, isolation, lack of feedback, and dissatisfaction. The authors developed a formulation to help them preconsciously recognize the presence of these factors during therapeutic work and found that it was helpful in turning a potentially bad hour into a productive one.

The analysis of a male patient by a female analyst: the problem of the negative Oedipal transference.
The clinical work in this paper is focused on the analysis of the negative oedipal phase of a male patient with a female analyst. Determinants of this phase are discussed. Theoretical questions are raised and propositions advanced. Transference phenomena are differentiated from the transference neurosis and the types of transferences formed according to the sex of the analyst are discussed. It is proposed that patients develop maternal transferences to analysts of both sexes, but that such transferences are limited to pre-oedipal phases for patients with male analysts. During the analysis of the oedipal phase, both positive and negative, the patient's transference is to the analyst according to the analyst's sex. A true paternal transference neurosis to a female analyst ordinarily does not occur.
