Abstract

The technique of psychoanalytic treatment as an objective, operative-technological theory inevitably experiences a subjective refraction on analyst's personality and his or her own cognitive and interactional styles influencing therapeutic efficiency. Systematic clinical trials of treatment data integrating motions from psychoanalytic, social and cognitive science, reconcile the gap between research and practice, between basic science and application. It will be discussed how empirical research can delineate therapists' cognitive and perceptual skills and the process of transformation from declarative to procedural knowledge, further elaborated in reciprocal connection with practice. The models of Structural Analysis of Social Behavior (SASB) and Cyclic Maladaptive Pattern (CMP) are especially considered. We will also discuss the consequences for training in psychoanalysis.

Perverse dreams and dreams of perversion.

This paper (1) posits the occurrence of perverse dreams as a type of mental phenomenon in the constellation of perverse processes; (2) considers manifest dreams of frank perversion as a type of perverse dream within the class of perverse dreams as a whole; (3) relates the subtype of perverse dreams without manifest perversions to the occurrence of perverse defenses and the development of a perverse transference; and (4) suggests that consideration to perverse dreams in the psychoanalytic process finds application in identifying and differentiating perverse defenses from neurotic and other characterologic patterns; in identifying and tracing the vicissitudes of difficult perverse transference-countertransference constellations; and in furthering perverse patients' recognition and understanding of particularly troublesome and seemingly intractable issues in their psychic makeup. Clinical material illustrates perverse dreams and their usefulness in the often arduous process of analyzing perverse defenses.

Trauma, reverie, and the field.

The author uses a clinical vignette to demonstrate complex concepts at work--concepts such as those derived from a productive grafting of Bion's thinking onto the concept of the psychoanalytic field. The underlying theory is narrated by the use of images, which the author finds to be the most appropriate way to demonstrate this theory at work--a theory of the mind based on the concept of digestibility of emotions, as well as the progressive introjection of instruments to render such an operation possible. Key points include the waking dream thought, the analyst's reverie, unsaturated interpretations, continual re-dreaming on the content of the session as permitted by the field, and the development of the ability to metabolize emotional contents.
