[Abstinence of the training analyst].

Different concepts of abstinence lead to different views regarding if and how much the fact that the training analyst and the trainee analyst share the same psychoanalytic institute restrict psychoanalytic abstinence in training analysis. In an objectifying abstinence concept the analysand's real experiences hinder him in developing his latent transference and talking about it. In an interactional abstinence concept the restrictions of abstinence lie in the fact that the analyst is impeded in his function to take over and to limit roles. In a third concept of abstinence where the psychoanalyst is asked to question his own views of reality in order to be able to work through the transference phantasies of the analysand, the common experiences of analyst and analysand at the training institute constitute a serious obstacle for psychoanalytic work in training analysis.
