    Area of Science:

    • Psychoanalysis
    • Philosophy of Truth
    • Clinical Psychology

    Background:

    • The search for common ground in psychoanalysis is influenced by underlying philosophical assumptions.
    • Clinical practice relies on implicit and explicit beliefs about subjectivity, truth, and reality.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine the influence of coherence and correspondence theories of truth on psychoanalytic discourse.
    • To illustrate how these theories shape understanding of clinical concepts and intersubjectivity.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of a previous empirical study on analysts' transference interpretation.
    • Examination of interview excerpts from psychoanalysts with diverse orientations and locations.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Clinical concepts are interconnected through beliefs about truth and reality.
    • Interviews reveal complex relationships between analytic neutrality, countertransference, and the therapeutic alliance.
    • Theories of truth may limit the exploration of differences and commonalities between analytic schools.

    Conclusions:

    • Coherence and correspondence theories of truth can constrain, rather than facilitate, comparative analysis in psychoanalysis.
    • A deeper understanding of these philosophical underpinnings is needed for more effective dialogue across analytic traditions.
