Moments of Change in Psychoanalytic Theory: Discussion of a New Theory of Psychic Change
نویسنده
چکیده
This commentary briefly summarizes the model proposed by the Boston Group and attempts to place it in the context of attachment theory and other integrational attempts between cognitive science and psychoanalysis. The clinical implications of these ideas are considered, with particular reference to therapeutic technique and the role of the therapist, as a “new object.” Some suggestions for the further development of the model are considered, in particular the observational study of the therapeutic process, the use of some classical psychoanalytic ideas such as transference, and the need for using the model to encourage technical innovation in psychoanalysis. RESUMEN: Este comentario resume brevemente el modelo propuesto por el Grupo de Boston, e intenta colocarlo en el contexto de la teorı́a de la unión afectiva y otros intentos de integración entre la ciencia cognitiva y el sicoanálisis. Se consideran las implicaciones clı́nicas de estas ideas, con referencia particular a la técnica terapéutica y al papel del terapista como un “nuevo objeto.” Se consideran también algunas sugerencias para desarrollar más el modelo, en particular el estudio de observación del proceso terapéutico, el uso de algunas ideas sicoanalı́ticas clásicas tales como la transferencia, y la necesidad de usar el modelo para motivar la innovación técnica en el sicoanálisis. RÉSUMÉ: Ce commentaire résume brièvement le modèle proposé par le Groupe de Boston et essaie de le placer dans le contexte de la théoriue de l’attachement et d’autres tentatives d’intégration entre les sciences cognitives et la psychanalyse. Les implications cliniques de ces idées sont considérées, plus particulièrement en ce qui concerne la technique thérapeutique et le rôle du thérapeute en tant qu’un “nouvel objet.” Quelques suggestions pour le développement à venir du modèle sont considérées, plus particulièrement l’étude d’observation du processus thérapeutique, l’utilisation d’idées psychanalytiques classiques comme le transfert, et la nécessité d’utiliser le modèle pour encourager des innovations techniques en psychanalyse. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG: Dieser Kommentar faßt das Modell, das von der bostoner Gruppe vorgeschlagen wird kurz zusammen und versucht es in den Kontext der Beziehungstheorie und anderer Versuche kognitive Wissenschaft und Psychoanalyse zu verbinden, zu stellen. Die praktischen Schlüsse dieser Idee werden wahrgenommen, insbesonders im Bezug auf die therapeutischen Techniken und die Rolle des Therapeuten als das “neue Objekt”. Einige Anregungen für die weiter Entwicklung des Modells werden gemacht, insbesonders zu der Beobachtungsstudie des therapeutischen Prozeß, zur Verwendung einiger Direct correspondence to: Peter Fonagy, Sub-Department of Clinical Health Psychology, University College London, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT, E-mail: [email protected] Moments of Change in Psychoanalytic Theory ● 347 IMHJ (Wiley) RIGHT BATCH

The Disease Control Priorities program (DCP) has pioneered the use of economic evidence in health.

The Disease Control Priorities (DCP) publications have pioneered new ways of thinking about investing in health. We agree with Norheim, that a useful first step to advance efforts to translate DCP’s global evidence into local health priorities, is to develop a clear Theory of Change (ToC). However, a ToC that aims to define how global evidence (DCP and others) can be used to inform national pol...
