Biological Underpinnings of the cognitive Model of depression: a prototype for psychoanalytic research
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Decades before writing An Outline of Psychoanalysis, Freud’s Project for a Scientific Psychology attempted to define the unconscious in neurological terms. Due to the technological restraints of the time, Freud was forced to abandon the Project and turn his focus to investigating the unconscious though dream analysis (Roffman & Gerber, 2008). In modern times, biological discoveries continue to inform and support hypotheses about the development and amelioration of psychological distress. The body of research identifying biological support for the cognitive theory of depression may serve as an exemplar for furthering the study and practice of psychoanalysis.
