  • The Irrelevance of Infant Observations for Psychoanalysis

    Open AccessPeter H WolffARTICLEJournal of the American…1996Citada por: 20Referências: 33

    The current consensus among psychoanalysts holds that direct infant observations are one means for testing the developmental propositions of psychoanalytic theory; that the observations have already falsified some of the theory's basic propositions; and that they hold the key to a qualitatively different developmental theory of psychoanalysis. The consensus, although not universal, has motivated a wide range of research programs on early infancy,…

  • Observations on Newborn Infants

    Peter H WolffARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1959

    The findings of continuous systematic observations on 4 newborn infants were reported, with emphasis on motor patterns in sleep, on reactions to external stimulation, and on responses to need tension. A tentative explanation was presented that sought to relate the observed types of behavior to one another in terms of energy and threshold concepts. The various behavior forms were classified according to their sources and according to their presump…
