Background:

Psychoanalytic interventions possess complex, overdetermined syntactical structures.
Unusual syntax in analyst interventions may indicate critical junctures in therapy.
Pseudoquotes, where analysts adopt the patient's voice using "I," are a notable syntactical form.

Observation:

Analysis of three audio-recorded psychoanalytic sessions featuring analyst pseudoquotes.
Examination of the contextual determinants of these pseudoquotes.
Identification of themes related to wishes and fears concerning self-other relatedness.

Findings:

Pseudoquotes appear linked to challenging moments in establishing self-other relatedness.
Determinants include complex wishes and fears surrounding patient-analyst interaction.
