[Proposal for a project in psychotherapeutic strategy in behavior disorders].

Considerations are reviewed that do not permit any separation "from the unconscious", conceived as a reality which, together with the conscience, operates as a behavioural regulation factor through a set system that regulates behaviour by giving meaning to incoming information and giving a sense to experience. Mention is made of concepts of anxiety, removal and catharsis, and to recent research on the functions of the cerebral hemispheres. A psychotherapeutic strategy is proposed, finally, consisting of an analysis of a subject's history in a state of relaxation with guided associations, over the time span, along chains of mental content; and in the restructuring of sets through appropriate techniques.
