Using the metaphor of ecumenism, the current status of psychoanalysis and the American Psychoanalytic Association is examined. The dialectical tendencies to oppose and to unify are noted in psychoanalytic theory, technique, and practice, as well as in the administrative and political life of our organization. Fostering tolerance for new hypotheses without sacrificing empirical discrimination, and promoting broad participation without lowering standards confront us as major tasks demanding continuing vigilance and effort.
运用普世教会主义的隐喻，审视了精神分析及美国精神分析协会的现状。在精神分析理论、技术和实践中，以及在我们组织的行政和政治生活中，注意到了对立与统一的辩证倾向。在不牺牲实证辨别力的情况下培养对新假设的宽容，以及在不降低标准的情况下促进广泛参与，是摆在我们面前需要持续警惕和努力的主要任务。
