ABSTRACTPsychic development over the course of adulthood has been largely neglected in the psychoanalytic literature over the past 30 years. This paper is an attempt to update a psychoanalytic understanding of adult development and to begin to illustrate its clinical value. Over time, increased longevity has changed the experience of life phases, and our ideas about development have moved away from rigid stage theories and universal concepts toward a more flexible, individualized, and socio-culturally informed understanding of the core challenges that define development of the personality over the course of life. In this paper I will focus on important aspects of self-experience across the adult life cycle to outline a revised and expanded scheme of the key intrapsychic tasks of adulthood. I will use an extended case example to illustrate how the psychoanalytic practitioner can use this adult development perspective to inform treatment. Finally, I will consider the applicability of the “developmental object” concept to adult treatment and to our ideas of how people change over the course of life, both within and outside treatment.KEYWORDS: Adult developmentdevelopment of the selfdevelopmental objectlife stagespersonality change over the lifecycle Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1. With the specialization of knowledge, especially research-based knowledge, much of the scholarly work on adult development moved to the subdiscipline of “life span psychology,” largely cut off from psychoanalytic thinking. For an important exception see the recent section of Volume 70 of The Psychoanalytic Study of the Child “Emerging Adulthood: A Developmental Phase” (Knight Citation2017).2. This experience of environmental threat is, I believe, an important determinant of the relatively high levels of anxiety that are characteristic of this phase of the lifecycle.3. Freud first used the term “instinct for mastery” in Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality (Citation1905) in which he set it apart from the sexual instincts though it can be blended with them. Freud’s use of the term pertained to control and dominance either over an object or internal excitations and is “put into operation through the agency of the somatic musculature” (198). With Freud’s development of the dual instinct theory the drive for mastery lost the status of a separate instinct and was subsumed under the death instinct (Laplanche and Pontalis Citation1974). Psychoanalytic theorists post-Freud emphasized the importance of an “instinct to master” (Hendrik Citation1943) or “effectance motive” (White Citation1959) as a need to control the environment. Lying outside and independent of the dual instinct matrix, a striving for mastery came to be seen as an independent motivational system, driving adaptation.

Nonlinear Dynamic Systems Theory has been used by researchers in development for over 25 years. This paper demonstrates how this theory applies to psychodynamic development throughout the life cycle and illustrates how it can be used to explain change in psychoanalytic treatment.

Late adolescent development can be described in terms of a nonlinear dynamic complex system including processes of emergence, that develop at the edge of chaos, and the shaping of development by the adolescent’s engagement in a variety of social and educational systems. Autobiographical material from the author’s late adolescence is used to illustrate these processes as they occurred in the author’s late adolescent and early adult development.

Of all current psychologies, psychoanalysis is the most engaged with the complex and chaotic dimensions of human development and suffering – intricate psychic processes, fluxing mental and physical states, unexpected shifts between clarity and confusion, big changes following small inputs, uncertainty about causes and locations – including whose thoughts belong to whom, and more. These crucial elements, however, have not always been taken up explicitly. Nonlinear dynamic systems theory (NLDS) provides an aesthetically pleasing and scientifically current framework for these factors and illuminates established clinical practice and theory. Through clinical examples, conceptual elaboration, and an account of the author’s growing interest in this field, this paper offers a user-friendly invitation to NLDS.

ABSTRACT The Co-Editors-in-Chief of The Psychoanalytic Study of the Child introduce two clinical papers on Gender Dysphoria which include detailed clinical material from the analyses of four children born biologically female. They emphasize the importance of a psychoanalytic developmental theory as a foundation for analytic work with children and adolescents, and promote the idea of ongoing conversations in our field regarding these complicated issues. They encourage readers to reflect on the analytic material with a curious mind and an attitude of not knowing, to further their own insights into the complicated issue of gender and Gender Dysphoria and to contribute to the conversation.

ABSTRACT The work described illustrates the importance of active playing in childhood as a subjective activity from age two-and-one-half years up to at least five years old, as a means of communicating nonverbally, especially when words are not yet readily available. It is a young child’s way of exploring the world and his own interests, while also communicating what matters to him emotionally. It requires adults to translate and understand what playing communicates and actually means, and why it matters emotionally. Playing enhances relationships and is useful in conveying and furthering interpersonal understanding, gradually becoming ever more verbal.
