We present observations on the use of racial and cultural stereotypes in psychoanalytic psychotherapy with patients from the majority culture and with those from minority backgrounds. Earlier work has centered on black/white patient dyads and has not taken other possible combinations into account. "Race" and "culture" have sometimes been used synonymously. Our clinical experience indicates that there is some overlap in the themes of transferences to us as members of different racial minorities. We note, however, that for the African-American therapist, projections are more often based on racial stereotypes, whereas for the Chinese-American therapist, projections are based more on cultural assumptions. When careful attention is paid to the manifestations of racial and cultural stereotyping, much can be learned about the patient's inner life, to the benefit of the analytic work.
我们呈现了关于在精神分析心理治疗中，对来自主流文化患者和少数族裔背景患者使用种族和文化刻板印象的观察结果。早期的研究主要集中在黑/白患者二元组上，并未考虑其他可能的组合。“种族”和“文化”有时被用作同义词。我们的临床经验表明，作为不同少数族裔成员，患者对我们的移情主题存在一些重叠。然而，我们注意到，对于非裔美国治疗师而言，投射更多地基于种族刻板印象，而对于华裔美国治疗师来说，投射更多地基于文化假设。当仔细关注种族和文化刻板印象的表现时，可以了解到很多关于患者内心生活的信息，这对分析工作有益。
