In children, as in adults, dreams offer a direct access to the unconscious. The analysis of dreams in the psychoanalytic treatment of children is, however, a neglected area. The work that a 9-year-old boy did with his dreams during the course of his two-and-a-half-year analysis is presented to demonstrate how helpful dream analysis can be in elucidating conflict and defense in the child patient. With children, the responsibility for inquiring about dreams rests with the analyst. The associations a child has to his or her dreams are as useful as an adult's.
与成年人一样，儿童的梦提供了一条通向潜意识的直接途径。然而，在儿童精神分析治疗中对梦的分析是一个被忽视的领域。本文呈现了一个9岁男孩在其两年半的分析过程中对自己梦境的探索，以展示梦的分析在阐明儿童患者的冲突和防御机制方面是多么有帮助。对于儿童，询问梦境的责任在于分析师。儿童对其梦境的联想与成年人的联想一样有用。
