Psychoanalytic infant observation is frequently used in training
psychoanalytic psychotherapists and allied professionals, but
increasingly its value as a research method is being recognised,
particularly in understanding developmental processes in vulnerable
individuals and groups. This book explores the scope of this
approach and discusses its strengths and limitations from a
methodological and philosophical point of view.
Infant Observation and Research uses detailed case studies to
demonstrate the research potential of the infant observation
method. Divided into three sections this book covers
- infant observation as part of the learning process
- how infant observation can inform understanding and influence
practice
- psychoanalytic infant observation and other methodologies.
Throughout the book, Cathy Urwin, Janine Sternberg and their
contributors introduce the reader to the nature and value of
psychoanalytic infant observation and its range of application.
This book will therefore interest a range of mental health
practitioners concerned with early development and infants'
emotional relationships, as well as academics and researchers in
the social sciences and humanities.
