Frame theory can contribute to our understanding of psychoanalytic work in ways compatible with established psychoanalytic theory. Its concepts and metaphor convey the relativism of the psychic realities both parties bring to the analytic situation, as well as the multiple levels of transference that become framed upon the relationship. Its linkages to game theory stress the power of play and illusion in transference actualization and working through. The importance of rules and conventions for all three theories, and for the ability to do analytic work, suggests their essential grounding in the child's capacities for play, particularly those capabilities elaborated in latency following oedipal conflict resolution.
框架理论能够以与既定精神分析理论相符的方式，助力我们理解精神分析工作。其概念和隐喻传达了双方带入分析情境的心理现实的相对主义，以及在关系之上形成框架的多层次移情。它与博弈论的联系强调了游戏和幻想在移情实现及解决过程中的力量。所有这三种理论中规则和惯例的重要性，以及进行分析工作的能力，表明它们本质上基于儿童的游戏能力，尤其是在俄狄浦斯冲突解决后的潜伏期所发展出的那些能力。
