Abstract
ABSTRACT In this paper the authors address the strengths of the traditional psychoanalytic model of adolescence, but suggest that it applies mainly to disturbed young people and misrepresents the majority of well-functioning adolescents. This blurs distinctions between normality and pathology, affecting diagnosis and clinical technique, promoting as well a skewed image of the phase in the general culture. To redress this difficulty, the authors propose revision and elaboration of the classical model through the addition of a perspective based on a developmental model of two systems of self-regulation that effectively describes the full range of functioning and generates a wider repertoire of techniques. Using data from 38 published cases, they counter some traditional premises, demonstrating that psychoanalysis can be the treatment of choice for disturbed adolescents, as it is highly effective, accepted by most adolescents and their parents when it includes concurrent parent work, and can be brought to proper termination with improved outcomes.
期刊介绍：
The Psychoanalytic Study of the Child is recognized as a preeminent source of contemporary psychoanalytic thought. Published annually, it focuses on presenting carefully selected and edited representative articles featuring ongoing analytic research as well as clinical and theoretical contributions for use in the treatment of adults and children. Initiated in 1945, under the early leadership of Anna Freud, Kurt and Ruth Eissler, Marianne and Ernst Kris, this series of volumes soon established itself as a leading reference source of study. To look at its contributors is to be confronted with the names of a stellar list of creative, scholarly pioneers who willed a rich heritage of information about the development and disorders of children and their influence on the treatment of adults as well as children. An innovative section, The Child Analyst at Work, periodically provides a forum for dialogue and discussion of clinical process from multiple viewpoints.
