Abstract

Two distinct spaces can be seen as operating in a session-a private one in the analyst's mind, where formulations take shape, and one shared between patient and analyst, in which interpretations are offered. By maintaining a focus on the here and now in the latter space, taking care to protect it from intrusions from the analyst's theory except as hypotheses (in the form of interpretations derived from those formulations) aimed at eliciting unconscious responses that further the analytic inquiry, a basis for analytic work is established that aligns with ordinary scientific processes: theory is generated in the mind of the researcher, and hypotheses derived from it are tested systematically in a laboratory setting. Self-understanding that develops out of such an arrangement can then be seen as based on evidence, minimizing the role of suggestion. This line of thinking is illustrated with excerpts from the beginning of the analysis of a depressed patient. In developing areas of theory, when reliable evidence is particularly important, this way of working holds promise. In this case evidence was systematically gathered that led to the formulation of a model of internal racism.

解释即假设。
在一个疗程中,可以看到两个不同的空间在运作--一个是分析师头脑中的私人空间,在这个空间中形成了表述;另一个是病人和分析师共享的空间,在这个空间中提供了解释。在后一个空间中,分析师要保持对此时此地的关注,注意保护它不受分析师理论的侵扰,除了作为假设(以从这些表述中衍生出的解释的形式),旨在激发无意识反应以推进分析探究,这样就为分析工作建立了一个与普通科学过程相一致的基础:理论在研究者的头脑中产生,从理论中衍生出的假设在实验室环境中得到系统的检验。在这种安排下形成的自我理解可以被视为基于证据,从而将暗示的作用降到最低。我们可以从对一位抑郁症患者的分析中摘录一些片段来说明这一思路。在理论发展领域,当可靠的证据尤为重要时,这种工作方式就大有可为。在这个案例中,我们系统地收集了证据,并据此制定了内部种族主义模型。
