Measurement of the complex phenomena in psychoanalysis is approached by defining interrelated elements in the analytic situation and specifying the range of their variation in scales which can be both generalized and made specific for an individual patient. Using this approach in transcripts of psychoanalytic sessions, we rate painful emotion, impairment of defensive maneuvers, and activation of threatening conflictual fantasies. This preliminary study involved rating of tape-recorded sessions by psychoanalytically oriented judges. Quantitative estimates appeared to relate in many ways to qualitative fluctuations in the patient's state. Such an approach may be helpful in developing more effective clinical theory about emotions, defensive processes, and transference fantasies.
精神分析中复杂现象的测量方法是，先在分析情境中定义相互关联的要素，并明确其在量表上的变化范围，这些量表既可以是通用的，也可以针对个体患者进行具体化。在精神分析会话记录中运用这种方法，我们对痛苦情绪、防御策略的受损情况以及威胁性冲突幻想的激活进行评分。这项初步研究涉及由具有精神分析取向的评判员对录音会话进行评分。定量估计在许多方面似乎与患者状态的定性波动相关。这种方法可能有助于发展关于情绪、防御过程和移情幻想的更有效的临床理论。
