Neuroscience and Psychoanalysis
Role of Research and Critical Thinking in Psychoanalytic Training and Education
The authors’ basic thesis is that training in critical thinking and inclusion of research findings in psychoanalytic education are essential for the vitality and future viability of psychoanalysis. Despite the calls of significant psychoanalytic voices over many years for such changes, these steps have not been taken to any significant extent in most psychoanalytic institutes. The authors recognize that much research is not directly relevant to c…
Subjective Experience
Morris N. Eagle explores the understanding and role of subjective experience in the disciplines of psychology, psychoanalysis, and philosophy of mind. Elaborating how different understandings of subjective experience give rise to very different theories of the nature of the mind, Eagle then explains how these shape clinical practices. In particular, Eagle addresses the strong tendency in the disciplines concerned with the nature of the mind to ov…
Interpreting Interpretation
Interpretation of the latent meaning of manifest content is the core of the traditional approach to psychoanalytic treatment. The main purpose of such interpretation is to enhance the patient’s self-knowledge, in particular his or her awareness of unconscious wishes and their embeddedness in inner conflicts. An assumption of classical psychoanalysis is that veridical interpretations—as Freud put it, interpretations that tally with what is real in…

Systematic empirical research versus clinical case studies
This paper considers the issue of systematic empirical research versus clinical case studies raised by Hoffman (2009). A rebuttal of Hoffman’s arguments is offered, followed by an argument that each method addresses itself to different questions and that posing them in opposition is not fruitful. Finally, criteria and requirements of the case study method are proposed that, if met, would enhance its evidential value

Mirror Neurons and Mind
Psychoanalysis and its critics
This article discusses the question of the basis of changes in psychoanalytic concepts, theory, and treatment. Illustrative examples discussed include the “widening scope” of the use of “parameters” in psychoanalytic treatment; the rejection of the “Enlightenment Vision” and the concomitant de-emphasis on the role of insight; the concept of “narrative truth”; and the “totalistic” reconceptualization of the meaning of countertransferase. I then di…
Early Exposure to Violence in the Family of Origin and Positive Attitudes towards Marital Violence
Intentional Attunement
The neural circuits activated in a person carrying out actions, expressing emotions, and experiencing sensations are activated also, automatically via a mirror neuron system, in the observer of those actions, emotions, and sensations. It is proposed that this finding of shared activation suggests a functional mechanism of “embodied simulation” that consists of the automatic, unconscious, and noninferential simulation in the observer of actions, e…

The postmodern turn in psychoanalysis
The Analyst's Knowledge and Authority
A critical assessment is presented of positions recently taken by Mitchell and Renik, who are taken as representatives of a “new view” in psychoanalysis. One article by Mitchell and two by Renik are examined as paradigmatic of certain ways of construing the nature of mind, the analyst's knowledge and authority, and the analytic process that are unduly influenced by the postmodern turn in psychoanalysis. Although “new view” theorists have made val…

Attachment and psychoanalysis
This paper examines the relationship between certain aspects of attachment theory and psychoanalytic theories and practice. The specific issues discussed include the relative roles of ‘real’ external events ‘versus’ an individual's constitution and temperament in shaping an individual's internal working model; the relationship between attachment and sexuality; conceptions of factors that maintain maladaptive behaviour, including the intergenerati…

Critical Notice on Erwin and Fisher
A. Grünbaum's The Foundations of Psychoanalysis
This book consists thematically of three broad sections: (1) a lengthy introduction (approximately one third of the book) in which Grünbaum critically assesses the hermeneutic construal of psychoanalysis, as represented in the work of Habermas, G. S. Klein, and Ricoeur; (2) a critical examination of Popper's assessment of both psychoanalysis and inductivism; and (3) a logical analysis of core psychoanalytic ideas that constitute the foundation fo…

The relationship between individual differences in defensive style and concept formation
The relationship between defensive style and concept formation with aggressive and neutral stimuli was investigated. Very strong relationships were found between the use of avoidant and repressive defenses and the number of errors made in acquiring and utilizing an aggressive concept. This relationship was not found for the neutral concept. The results suggest the importance of directing attention to the relevant stimulus dimension in efficient c…
The Role of Deployment of Attention in the Overlearning Reversal Effect (ORE) with Aggressive and Nonaggressive Stimuli
The study elucidated the role of deployment of attention in the appearance and magnitude of the overlearning reversal effect (ORE) with simultaneously occurring aggressive and neutral stimulus dimensions in a discrimination reversal-shift paradigm with 60 undergraduate college students. Confirming expectations, significantly larger overlearning reversal effect (ORE) was produced on the number of instrumental response errors and verbalized attenti…
