[Transference in psychoses].

It is essential to have a concept of psychosis, based on a psychoanalitic pattern of the functioning of mental life. A dynamic differential diagnosis of the different types of psychosis should be done. Speaking about "the" transference in "the" psychosis leads to confusions that render inoperative the theories and techniques used in the treatment of the psychotic structures. Considering the transferences as an unattainable part of reality that keeps on passing from one structure to another, it has different features in the different types of psychosis. In a broad sense it is also present in all the forms of relationships of human beings. It is the essential factor of a communicational style.
